| Parameters | domain | The domain for which this will be the secondary authority. (type: bytes) | 
Construct a new SecondaryAuthority
from a tuple giving a server address and a bytes giving the 
name of a domain for which this is an authority.
| Parameters | serverAddress | A two-tuple, the first element of which is a strgiving an IP 
address and the second element of which is aintgiving a port
number.  Together, these define where zone transfers will be attempted 
from. | 
| domain | A bytesgiving the domain to transfer. | |
| Returns | A new instance of SecondaryAuthority. | |
Determine a response to a particular DNS query.
| Parameters | name | The name which is being queried and for which to lookup a response. (type: bytes) | 
| cls | The class which is being queried.  Only IN is implemented here and 
this value is presently disregarded. (type: int) | |
| type | The type of records being queried.  See the types defined in twisted.names.dns. (type:int) | |
| timeout | All processing is done locally and a result is available immediately, so the timeout value is ignored. | |
| Returns | A Deferredthat fires with atupleof three sets of response records (to comprise the answer, 
authority, and additional sections of a DNS response) or with
aFailureif
there is a problem processing the query. | |
