Contains authoritative information about a DNS zone including primary nameserver, admin email, and timing parameters.

Field Summary

Fields
Modifier and Type	Field and Description
`int`	`expire` A 32 bit time value that specifies the upper limit on the time interval that can elapse before the zone is no longer authoritative.
`long`	`minimum` The unsigned 32 bit minimum TTL field that should be exported with any RR from this zone.
`DnsName`	`mname` The domain name of the name server that was the original or primary source of data for this zone.
`int`	`refresh` A 32 bit time interval before the zone should be refreshed.
`int`	`retry` A 32 bit time interval that should elapse before a failed refresh should be retried.
`DnsName`	`rname` A domain name which specifies the mailbox of the person responsible for this zone.
`long`	`serial` The unsigned 32 bit version number of the original copy of the zone.

- Field Detail
  - expire
```
public final int expire
```
    A 32 bit time value that specifies the upper limit on the time interval that can elapse before the zone is no longer authoritative.
  - minimum
```

```
    The unsigned 32 bit minimum TTL field that should be exported with any RR from this zone.
  - mname
```
public final DnsName mname
```
    The domain name of the name server that was the original or primary source of data for this zone.
  - refresh
```
public final int refresh
```
    A 32 bit time interval before the zone should be refreshed.
  - retry
```
public final int retry
```
    A 32 bit time interval that should elapse before a failed refresh should be retried.
  - rname
```
public final DnsName rname
```
    A domain name which specifies the mailbox of the person responsible for this zone.
  - serial
```
public final long serial
```
    The unsigned 32 bit version number of the original copy of the zone. Zone transfers preserve this value. This value wraps and should be compared using sequence space arithmetic.
