NAME
Net::DNS::RR::SSHFP - DNS SSHFP resource record
SYNOPSIS
use Net::DNS;
$rr = new Net::DNS::RR('name SSHFP algorithm fptype fp');
DESCRIPTION
DNS SSH Fingerprint (SSHFP) resource records - RFC 4255.
METHODS
The available methods are those inherited from the base class augmented
by the type-specific methods defined in this package.
Use of undocumented package features or direct access to internal data
structures is discouraged and could result in program termination or
other unpredictable behaviour.
algorithm
$algorithm = $rr->algorithm;
The 8-bit algorithm number describes the algorithm used to construct
the public key.
fptype
$fptype = $rr->fptype;
The 8-bit fingerprint type number describes the message-digest
algorithm used to calculate the fingerprint of the public key.
fp
$fp = $rr->fp;
Hexadecimal representation of the fingerprint digest.
fpbin
$fpbin = $rr->fpbin;
Returns opaque octet string representing the fingerprint digest.
babble
print $rr->babble;
The babble() method returns the 'BabbleBubble' representation of the
fingerprint if the Digest::BubbleBabble package is available, otherwise
an empty string is returned.
Bubble babble represents a message digest as a string of "real" words,
to make the fingerprint easier to remember. The "words" are not
necessarily real words, but they look more like words than a string of
hex characters.
Bubble babble fingerprinting is used by the SSH2 suite (and
consequently by Net::SSH::Perl, the Perl SSH implementation) to display
easy-to-remember key fingerprints.
The 'BubbleBabble' string is appended as a comment to the RDATA when
the string method is called.
