Parse and manipulate DNS Zone Files

This module will parse a Zone File and put all the Resource Records RRs into an anonymous hash structure. At the moment, the following types of RRs are supported SOA, NS, MX, A, CNAME, TXT, PTR. It could be useful for maintaining DNS zones, or for transferring DNS zones to other servers. If you want to generate an XML-friendly version of your zone files, it is easy to use XMLSimple with this module once you have parsed the zonefile.

DNSZoneParse scans the DNS zonefile - removes comments and separates the file into it’s constituent records. It then parses each record and stores the records internally. See below for information on the accessor methods.
