NeoDomain

A local DNS server implementation of the Iterative and the Recursive models using Python.

Iterative Model

To start the iterative model,

1. Open a terminal tab, and cd into src
2. Run python3 iterative.py to start the local iterative server
3. For the root, top, and authoritative servers, open a termainal tab for each, and start each of them using python3.
4. Enter the hostname to fetch data for in the terminal tab for iterative.py
5. See results

Recursive Model

1. Open a terminal tab, and cd into src
2. Run python3 recursive.py to start the local recursive server
3. For the root, top, and authoritative servers, open a termainal tab for each, and start each of them using python3.
4. Enter the hostname to fetch data for in the terminal tab for recursive.py
5. See results
