In your example usage, you parse a 'packet' using 'dnslib.DNSRecord.parse'. What is a 'packet'? I.e. what layer of the communication stack? Also, what data-type is 'packet'?
What I'm trying to do is read DNS traffic from pcaps (I know how to filter out things that aren't DNS traffic), with a library like dpkt. dpkt can give me any layer of the stack I want, but neither the full packet nor solely the application layer seem to work as input to 'dnslib.DNSRecord.parse'.
