note 120049 added to function.dns-get-record

Please note that Firewalls and anti malware software detects (and depending on company policies even blocks) DNS_ANY requests. In that case the usage of this function fails. This is because DNS_ANY requests can be exploited for creating "amplification (D)DOS attackes": You send 1 DNS_ANY request and get a huge amount of information back, thus even small requests can result into hugh network load. I advise to use a more explicit name-request instead of using DNS_ANY. ---- Server IP: 72.52.91.14 Probable Submitter: 83.80.22.38 ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.dns-get-record.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/120049 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/120049/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/120049/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/120049/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/120049/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/120049/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/120049/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/120049 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/120049 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
