BIND version 9 is a major rewrite of nearly all aspects of the
|
||||
underlying BIND architecture. This re-architecting of BIND was
|
||||
necessitated by the expected demands of:
|
||||
|
||||
- Domain name system growth, particularly in very large
|
||||
zones such as .COM
|
||||
- Protocol enhancements necessary to securely query and
|
||||
update zones
|
||||
- Protocol enhancements necessary to take advantage of
|
||||
certain architectural features of IP version 6
|
||||
|
||||
The 9.0.0 release, and this release candidate, is aimed at
|
||||
early adopters and those who wish to make use of new 9.0
|
||||
features, such as IPv6 and DNSSEC secure resolution support.
|
||||
BIND, the Berkeley Internet Name Daemon, version 9 is a major
|
||||
rewrite of nearly all aspects of the underlying BIND architecture. Some
|
||||
of the important features of BIND-9 are:
|
||||
- DNS Security
|
||||
DNSSEC (signed zones)
|
||||
TSIG (signed DNS requests)
|
||||
- IP version 6
|
||||
Answers DNS queries on IPv6 sockets
|
||||
IPv6 resource records (A6, DNAME, etc.)
|
||||
Bitstring Labels
|
||||
Experimental IPv6 Resolver Library
|
||||
- DNS Protocol Enhancements
|
||||
IXFR, DDNS, Notify, EDNS0
|
||||
Improved standards conformance
|
||||
- Views
|
||||
One server process can provide multiple "views" of the
|
||||
DNS namespace to different clients.
|
||||
- Multiprocessor Support
|
||||
- Improved Portability Architecture
