Description

Introduce BIND9 9.11.0b1. (beta1)

BIND 9.11 brings many changes to BIND, including a new license
(the Mozilla Public License 2.0 -- you can read about it here:
https://www.isc.org/blogs/bind9-adopts-the-mpl-2-0-license-with-bind-9-11-0/)
and many new features, including:

  • Catalog zones, a new way to provision zones on slave servers
  • dyndb api, a fast new api enabling BIND to serve zones stored in a database (Developed by Petr Spacek of RedHat)
  • RNDC showzone, view-only mode and other improvements
  • dnstap query and response logging (Robert Edmonds is the author of dnstap, see www.dnstap.info)
  • EDNS Client-subnet (authoritative server functions)
  • DNSSEC key manager, a new utility (Thanks to Sebastián Castro for helping with development.)
  • Automatic CDS/CDSKEY generation
  • Negative Trust Anchors for DNSSEC validators
  • IPv6 bias to encourage use of IPv6 DNS servers
  • Minimal response to “any” queries (Thanks to Tony Finch for the contribution)
  • DNS Cookies are now enabled by default, using the standardized code point
