DNS uses a binary format on the wire. MX records are defined as a 16-bit integer followed by a domain name. On the wire a domain name is a series of length prefixed octets or a pointer to another set of octets. IP addresses in A and AAAA are represented as a fixed length series of octets. It's apples and oranges. |
