Most notable changes include: </para> - <para> + <para> A new method for provisioning secondary servers called "Catalog Zones" has been added to BIND. A catalog zone is a regular DNS zone which contains a list of "member zones", along with the configuration options for each of those zones. When a server is configured to use a catalog zone, all the zones listed in the catalog zone are added to the local server as slave zones. However, as this is a new feature it does not support many advanced configurations such as ACLs (Access Control Li [...] </para> <para> The <command>isc.rndc</command> Python module has been added to BIND. It allows rndc commands to be sent from programs written in Python. </para> - <para> + <para> Added support for DynDB, a plug-in interface for loading zone data from an external database. DynDB is able to fully implement and extend the database API used natively by BIND. A DynDB module can pre-load data from an external data source, then serve it with the same performance and functionality as conventional BIND zones, and with the ability to take advantage of database features not available in BIND, such as multi-master replication. </para> - <para> + <para> Two new quotas have been added to limit the queries that are sent by recursive resolvers to authoritative servers that are experiencing denial-of-service attacks. <literal>fetches-per-server</literal> limits the number of simultaneous queries that can be sent to any single authoritative server. The <literal>fetches-per-zone</literal> quota limits the number of simultaneous queries that can be sent for names within a single domain. Statistics counters have also been added to track the [...] </para> - <para> + <para> Added support for <application>dnstap</application>, a fast, flexible method for capturing and logging DNS traffic. To enable dnstap at compile time, the <literal>fstrm</literal> and <literal>protobuf-c</literal> libraries must be available, and BIND must be configured with the <option>--enable-dnstap</option> option. </para> - <para> - A new DNSSEC key management utility, <application>dnssec-keymgr<application>, has been added. + <para> + A new DNSSEC key management utility, <application>dnssec-keymgr</application>, has been added. </para> - <para> + <para> The nslookup tool will now look up IPv6 as well as IPv4 addresses by default. </para> - <para> + <para> BIND will now check to see whether other name server processes are running before starting up. </para> - <para> + <para> Added server-side support for pipelined TCP queries. </para> - <para> + <para> The new <command>mdig</command> command is a version of dig that sends multiple pipelined queries and then waits for responses, instead of sending one query and waiting the response before sending the next. </para> - <para> + <para> A new message-compression option can be used to specify whether or not to use name compression when answering queries. </para> - <para> + <para> When loading a signed zone, BIND will now check whether an RRSIG's (DNSSEC signature) inception time is in the future, and if so, it will regenerate the RRSIG immediately. </para> </section> -- To stop receiving notification emails like this one, please contact the administrator of this repository.
