Known Subclasses:
CNAME, NS, PTR, UncompressedNS

Base class for rdata that is like an NS record.
Method Summary
  __init__(self, rdclass, rdtype, target)
  choose_relativity(self, origin, relativize)
Convert any domain names in the rdata to the specified relativization.
  from_text(cls, rdclass, rdtype, tok, origin, relativize)
(Class method)
  from_wire(cls, rdclass, rdtype, wire, current, rdlen, origin)
(Class method)
string to_text(self, origin, relativize, **kw)

int covers(self)
DNS SIG/RRSIG rdatas apply to a specific type; this type is returned by the covers() function.
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.
