NAME

Net::RDAP - an interface to the Registration Data Access Protocol (RDAP).

SYNOPSIS

use Net::RDAP;

my $rdap = Net::RDAP->new;

# get domain info:
$object = $rdap->domain(Net::DNS::Domain->new('example.com'));

# get info about IP addresses/ranges:
$object = $rdap->ip(Net::IP->new('192.168.0.1'));
$object = $rdap->ip(Net::IP->new('2001:DB8::/32'));

# get info about AS numbers:
$object = $rdap->ip(Net::ASN->new(65536));

DESCRIPTION

Net::RDAP provides an interface to the Registration Data Access Protocol (RDAP). RDAP is a replacement for Whois.

Net::RDAP does all the hard work of determining the correct server to query (Net::RDAP::Registry is an interface to the IANA registries), querying the server (Net::RDAP::UA is an RDAP HTTP user agent), and parsing the response (Net::RDAP::Object and its submodules provide access to the data returned by the server).

METHODS

$rdap = Net::RDAP->new;

Constructor method, returns a new object.

$info = $rdap->domain($domain);

This method returns a Net::RDAP::Object::Domain object containing information about the domain name referenced by $domain. $domain must be a Net::DNS::Domain object.

If no RDAP service can be found, then undef is returned.

$info = $rdap->ip($ip);

This method returns a Net::RDAP::Object::IPNetwork object containing information about the resource referenced by $ip. $ip must be a Net::IP object and can represent any of the following:

  • An IPv4 address (e.g. 192.168.0.1);

  • An IPv4 CIDR range (e.g. 192.168.0.1/16);

  • An IPv6 address (e.g. 2001:DB8::42:1);

  • An IPv6 CIDR range (e.g. 2001:DB8::/32).

If no RDAP service can be found, then undef is returned.

$info = $rdap->autnum($autnum);

This method returns a Net::RDAP::Object::Autnum object containing information about to the autonymous system referenced by $autnum. $autnum must be a Net::ASN object.

If no RDAP service can be found, then undef is returned.
