dnsrecord — Typeset DNS Records in LaTeX

A LaTeX package for typesetting DNS records, zone files, propagation status tables, and DNSSEC indicators in technical documents.

Features

Color-coded record type badges (A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, NS, TXT, SOA, PTR, SRV, CAA)
Shorthand commands for all common DNS record types
dnszone environment for complete zone file tables
dnspropagation environment for multi-server propagation checks
DNSSEC status indicators (valid, invalid, unsigned)
Configurable: colors, monospace, TTL display, compact mode

Quick Start

\usepackage{dnsrecord}

% Inline records
\dnsA{example.com}{93.184.216.34}[300]
\dnsMX{example.com}{10}{mail.example.com}[3600]

% Zone table
\begin{dnszone}{example.com}
  \dnsentry{A}{@}{93.184.216.34}[300]
  \dnsentry{CNAME}{www}{example.com}[3600]
  \dnsentry{MX}{@}{mail.example.com (pri 10)}[3600]
\end{dnszone}

% Propagation check
\begin{dnspropagation}{example.com}{A}
  \dnsserver{Google}{8.8.8.8}{93.184.216.34}{propagated}
  \dnsserver{Cloudflare}{1.1.1.1}{93.184.216.34}{propagated}
\end{dnspropagation}
