.. _rdata-types:
Rdata classes and types
-----------------------
Sets of typed data can be associated with a given name. A single typed
datum is called an *rdata*. The type of an rdata is specified by its
*rdataclass* and *rdatatype*. The class is almost always `IN`, the Internet
class, and may often be omitted in the dnspython APIs.
The ``dns.rdataclass`` module provides constants for each defined
rdata class, as well as some helpful functions. The ``dns.rdatatype``
module does the same for rdata types. Examples of the constants are::
dns.rdataclass.IN
dns.rdatatype.AAAA
.. automodule:: dns.rdataclass
