DNS_Query_Object 2.1 01/22/2014 The following specifies the fields and types that compose this defined CybOX Object type. Each defined object is an extension of the abstract ObjectPropertiesType, defined in CybOX Common. For more information on this extension mechanism, please see the CybOX Specification.

The DNS_Query object is intended to represent a single DNS query. The DNSQueryType is intended to characterize a single DNS query and its components. The Transaction_ID field specifies the Transaction ID value of the DNS query message header. The Question field specifies the DNS question component of the DNS query. The Answers field specifies any Answers resource records that were returned for the DNS query. The Authority_Resource_Records field specifies any Authority resource records that were returned for the DNS query. The Authority_Resource_Records field specifies any Additional resource records that were returned for the DNS query. The Date_Ran field specifies the date and time that the DNS query was run. The Service_Used field specifies the service used to run the DNS Query. The successful field specifies whether or not the DNS Query was successful. The DNSQuestionType specifies the components of a DNS Question, including the domain name queried, type, and class. The QName field specifies the domain name being queried. The QType specifies the type of DNS query performed, in terms of the requested DNS record type. The QClass field specifies the class of resource records being requested. The DNSAnswersType encompasses one or more resource records returned for a DNS query. The Answer field specifies a single DNS resource record returned as part of a DNS query. DNSRecordType specifies DNS record types, via a union of the DNSRecordTypeEnum type and the atomic xs:string type. Its base type is the CybOX Core BaseObjectPropertyType, for permitting complex (i.e. regular-expression based) specifications. This attribute is optional and specifies the expected type for the value of the specified property. The DNSRecordTypeEnum is a non-exhaustive enumeration of DNS Record Type names.
