Net::DNS::Lite(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Net::DNS::Lite(3)

Net::DNS::Lite - a pure-perl DNS resolver with support for timeout

    use Net::DNS::Lite qw(inet_aton);

    # drop-in replacement for Socket::inet_aton
    $Net::DNS::Lite::TIMEOUT = 5; # global timeout variable
    my $addr = inet_aton("www.google.com");

    # or per-query timeout
    my $addr = inet_aton("www.google.com", $timeout_in_seconds);

This module provides a replacement function for Socket::inet_aton, with support for timeouts.

maximum time (in seconds) inet_aton will block (default: 10)

if set, Net::DNS::Lite will cache the DNS responses internally using the supplied cache object. The cache object should support "get", "set", and "remove" functions (default: none)

maximum ttl of the cached entries (in seconds). Only has effect when $Net::DNS::Lite::CACHE is set.
