int covers(self)
DNS SIG/RRSIG rdatas apply to a specific type; this type is returned by the covers() function. (inherited from Rdata)
int extended_rdatatype(self)
Return a 32-bit type value, the least significant 16 bits of which are the ordinary DNS type, and the upper 16 bits of which are the "covered" type, if any. (inherited from Rdata)
string to_text(self, origin, relativize, **kw)
Convert an rdata to text format.
string to_wire(self, file, compress, origin)
Convert an rdata to wire format.
