DNS 0 NOERROR vs 21 BADALG
Both DNS 0 (NOERROR) and 21 (BADALG) belong to the DNS Response Codes (RCODEs) category. 0 indicates that no error condition. The query completed successfully and the response contains the requested data. Meanwhile, 21 means that algorithm not supported. The cryptographic algorithm specified in the TKEY or SIG record is not supported by the server.
الوصف
No error condition. The query completed successfully and the response contains the requested data.
متى تراه
This is the normal, successful response to any DNS query — the name was resolved and the answer section contains the requested records.
كيفية الإصلاح
No fix needed. RCODE 0 means the DNS lookup succeeded as expected.
الوصف
Algorithm not supported. The cryptographic algorithm specified in the TKEY or SIG record is not supported by the server.
متى تراه
Your TKEY negotiation or DNSSEC operation requested an algorithm (e.g., HMAC-SHA512) that the server has not been compiled with or configured to accept.
كيفية الإصلاح
Use a mutually supported algorithm. HMAC-SHA256 is widely supported for TSIG; for DNSSEC, check the server's supported algorithm list with its documentation.
