<acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> 9 configuration is broadly similar
to <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> 8; however, there are a few new
areas
of configuration, such as views. <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym>
8 configuration files should work with few alterations in <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym>
9, although more complex configurations should be reviewed to check
if they can be more efficiently implemented using the new features
found in <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> 9.

An IPv6 address, such as <span><strong class="command">2001:db8::1234</strong></span>.
IPv6 scoped addresses that have ambiguity on their
scope zones must be disambiguated by an appropriate
zone ID with the percent character (`%') as
delimiter. It is strongly recommended to use
string zone names rather than numeric identifiers,
in order to be robust against system configuration
changes. However, since there is no standard
mapping for such names and identifier values,
currently only interface names as link identifiers
are supported, assuming one-to-one mapping between
interfaces and links. For example, a link-local
address <span><strong class="command">fe80::1</strong></span> on the link
attached to the interface <span><strong class="command">ne0</strong></span>
can be specified as <span><strong class="command">fe80::1%ne0</strong></span>.
Note that on most systems link-local addresses
always have the ambiguity, and need to be
disambiguated.

<p>
Address match lists are primarily used to determine access
control for various server operations. They are also used in
the <span><strong class="command">listen-on</strong></span> and <span><strong class="command">sortlist</strong></span>
statements. The elements which constitute an address match
list can be any of the following:
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc">
<li>an IP address (IPv4 or IPv6)</li>
<li>an IP prefix (in `/' notation)</li>
<li>
a key ID, as defined by the <span><strong class="command">key</strong></span>
statement
</li>
<li>the name of an address match list defined with
the <span><strong class="command">acl</strong></span> statement
</li>
<li>a nested address match list enclosed in braces</li>
</ul></div>
<p>
Elements can be negated with a leading exclamation mark (`!'),
and the match list names "any", "none", "localhost", and
"localnets" are predefined. More information on those names
can be found in the description of the acl statement.
</p>
<p>
The addition of the key clause made the name of this syntactic
element something of a misnomer, since security keys can be used
to validate access without regard to a host or network address.
Nonetheless, the term "address match list" is still used
throughout the documentation.
</p>
<p>
When a given IP address or prefix is compared to an address
match list, the comparison takes place in approximately O(1)
time. However, key comparisons require that the list of keys
be traversed until a matching key is found, and therefore may
be somewhat slower.
</p>
<p>
The interpretation of a match depends on whether the list is being
used for access control, defining <span><strong class="command">listen-on</strong></span> ports, or in a
<span><strong class="command">sortlist</strong></span>, and whether the element was negated.
</p>
<p>
When used as an access control list, a non-negated match
allows access and a negated match denies access. If
there is no match, access is denied. The clauses
<span><strong class="command">allow-notify</strong></span>,
<span><strong class="command">allow-recursion</strong></span>,
<span><strong class="command">allow-recursion-on</strong></span>,
<span><strong class="command">allow-query</strong></span>,
<span><strong class="command">allow-query-on</strong></span>,
<span><strong class="command">allow-query-cache</strong></span>,
<span><strong class="command">allow-query-cache-on</strong></span>,
<span><strong class="command">allow-transfer</strong></span>,
<span><strong class="command">allow-update</strong></span>,
<span><strong class="command">allow-update-forwarding</strong></span>, and
<span><strong class="command">blackhole</strong></span> all use address match
lists. Similarly, the <span><strong class="command">listen-on</strong></span> option will cause the
server to refuse queries on any of the machine's
addresses which do not match the list.
</p>
<p>
Order of insertion is significant. If more than one element
in an ACL is found to match a given IP address or prefix,
preference will be given to the one that came
<span class="emphasis"><em>first</em></span> in the ACL definition.
Because of this first-match behavior, an element that
defines a subset of another element in the list should
come before the broader element, regardless of whether
either is negated. For example, in
<span><strong class="command">1.2.3/24; ! 1.2.3.13;</strong></span>
the 1.2.3.13 element is completely useless because the
algorithm will match any lookup for 1.2.3.13 to the 1.2.3/24
element. Using <span><strong class="command">! 1.2.3.13; 1.2.3/24</strong></span> fixes
that problem by having 1.2.3.13 blocked by the negation, but
all other 1.2.3.* hosts fall through.

<p>
The <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> 9 comment syntax allows for
comments to appear
anywhere that whitespace may appear in a <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> configuration
file. To appeal to programmers of all kinds, they can be written
in the C, C++, or shell/perl style.
</p>
<div class="sect3" lang="en">
<div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title">
<a name="id2573621"></a>Syntax</h4></div></div></div>
<p>
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">/* This is a <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> comment as in C */</pre>
<p>
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">// This is a <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> comment as in C++</pre>
<p>
</p>
<pre class="programlisting"># This is a <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> comment as in common UNIX shells and perl</pre>
<p>
</p>
</div>
<div class="sect3" lang="en">
<div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title">
<a name="id2573651"></a>Definition and Usage</h4></div></div></div>
<p>
Comments may appear anywhere that whitespace may appear in
a <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> configuration file.
</p>
<p>
C-style comments start with the two characters /* (slash,
star) and end with */ (star, slash). Because they are completely
delimited with these characters, they can be used to comment only
a portion of a line or to span multiple lines.
</p>
<p>
C-style comments cannot be nested. For example, the following
is not valid because the entire comment ends with the first */:
</p>
<p>
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">/* This is the start of a comment.
This is still part of the comment.
/* This is an incorrect attempt at nesting a comment. */
This is no longer in any comment. */
</pre>
<p>
</p>
<p>
C++-style comments start with the two characters // (slash,
slash) and continue to the end of the physical line. They cannot
be continued across multiple physical lines; to have one logical
comment span multiple lines, each line must use the // pair.
For example:
</p>
<p>
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">// This is the start of a comment. The next line
// is a new comment, even though it is logically
// part of the previous comment.
</pre>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Shell-style (or perl-style, if you prefer) comments start
with the character <code class="literal">#</code> (number sign)
and continue to the end of the
physical line, as in C++ comments.
For example:
</p>
<p>
</p>
<pre class="programlisting"># This is the start of a comment. The next line
# is a new comment, even though it is logically
# part of the previous comment.
</pre>
<p>
</p>
<div class="warning" style="margin-left: 0.5in; margin-right: 0.5in;">
<h3 class="title">Warning</h3>
<p>
You cannot use the semicolon (`;') character
to start a comment such as you would in a zone file. The
semicolon indicates the end of a configuration
statement.

Usage</h3></div></div></div>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">controls</strong></span> statement declares control
channels to be used by system administrators to control the
operation of the name server. These control channels are
used by the <span><strong class="command">rndc</strong></span> utility to send
commands to and retrieve non-DNS results from a name server.
</p>
<p>
An <span><strong class="command">inet</strong></span> control channel is a TCP socket
listening at the specified <span><strong class="command">ip_port</strong></span> on the
specified <span><strong class="command">ip_addr</strong></span>, which can be an IPv4 or IPv6
address. An <span><strong class="command">ip_addr</strong></span> of <code class="literal">*</code> (asterisk) is
interpreted as the IPv4 wildcard address; connections will be
accepted on any of the system's IPv4 addresses.
To listen on the IPv6 wildcard address,
use an <span><strong class="command">ip_addr</strong></span> of <code class="literal">::</code>.
If you will only use <span><strong class="command">rndc</strong></span> on the local host,
using the loopback address (<code class="literal">127.0.0.1</code>
or <code class="literal">::1</code>) is recommended for maximum security.
</p>
<p>
If no port is specified, port 953 is used. The asterisk
"<code class="literal">*</code>" cannot be used for <span><strong class="command">ip_port</strong></span>.
</p>
<p>
The ability to issue commands over the control channel is
restricted by the <span><strong class="command">allow</strong></span> and
<span><strong class="command">keys</strong></span> clauses.
Connections to the control channel are permitted based on the
<span><strong class="command">address_match_list</strong></span>. This is for simple
IP address based filtering only; any <span><strong class="command">key_id</strong></span>
elements of the <span><strong class="command">address_match_list</strong></span>
are ignored.
</p>
<p>
A <span><strong class="command">unix</strong></span> control channel is a UNIX domain
socket listening at the specified path in the file system.
Access to the socket is specified by the <span><strong class="command">perm</strong></span>,
<span><strong class="command">owner</strong></span> and <span><strong class="command">group</strong></span> clauses.
Note on some platforms (SunOS and Solaris) the permissions
(<span><strong class="command">perm</strong></span>) are applied to the parent directory
as the permissions on the socket itself are ignored.
</p>
<p>
The primary authorization mechanism of the command
channel is the <span><strong class="command">key_list</strong></span>, which
contains a list of <span><strong class="command">key_id</strong></span>s.
Each <span><strong class="command">key_id</strong></span> in the <span><strong class="command">key_list</strong></span>
is authorized to execute commands over the control channel.
See <a href="Bv9ARM.ch03.html#rndc">Remote Name Daemon Control application</a> in <a href="Bv9ARM.ch03.html#admin_tools" title="Administrative Tools">the section called “Administrative Tools”</a>)
for information about configuring keys in <span><strong class="command">rndc</strong></span>.
</p>
<p>
If no <span><strong class="command">controls</strong></span> statement is present,
<span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> will set up a default
control channel listening on the loopback address 127.0.0.1
and its IPv6 counterpart ::1.
In this case, and also when the <span><strong class="command">controls</strong></span> statement
is present but does not have a <span><strong class="command">keys</strong></span> clause,
<span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> will attempt to load the command channel key
from the file <code class="filename">rndc.key</code> in
<code class="filename">/etc</code> (or whatever <code class="varname">sysconfdir</code>
was specified as when <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> was built).
To create a <code class="filename">rndc.key</code> file, run
<strong class="userinput"><code>rndc-confgen -a</code></strong>.
</p>
<p>
The <code class="filename">rndc.key</code> feature was created to
ease the transition of systems from <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> 8,
which did not have digital signatures on its command channel
messages and thus did not have a <span><strong class="command">keys</strong></span> clause.
It makes it possible to use an existing <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> 8
configuration file in <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> 9 unchanged,
and still have <span><strong class="command">rndc</strong></span> work the same way
<span><strong class="command">ndc</strong></span> worked in BIND 8, simply by executing the
command <strong class="userinput"><code>rndc-confgen -a</code></strong> after BIND 9 is
installed.
</p>
<p>
Since the <code class="filename">rndc.key</code> feature
is only intended to allow the backward-compatible usage of
<acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> 8 configuration files, this
feature does not
have a high degree of configurability. You cannot easily change
the key name or the size of the secret, so you should make a
<code class="filename">rndc.conf</code> with your own key if you
wish to change
those things. The <code class="filename">rndc.key</code> file
also has its
permissions set such that only the owner of the file (the user that
<span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> is running as) can access it.
If you
desire greater flexibility in allowing other users to access
<span><strong class="command">rndc</strong></span> commands, then you need to create
a
<code class="filename">rndc.conf</code> file and make it group
readable by a group
that contains the users who should have access.
</p>
<p>
To disable the command channel, use an empty
<span><strong class="command">controls</strong></span> statement:
<span><strong class="command">controls { };</strong></span>.

<p>
The <span><strong class="command">logging</strong></span> statement configures a
wide
variety of logging options for the name server. Its <span><strong class="command">channel</strong></span> phrase
associates output methods, format options and severity levels with
a name that can then be used with the <span><strong class="command">category</strong></span> phrase
to select how various classes of messages are logged.
</p>
<p>
Only one <span><strong class="command">logging</strong></span> statement is used to
define
as many channels and categories as are wanted. If there is no <span><strong class="command">logging</strong></span> statement,
the logging configuration will be:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">logging {
category default { default_syslog; default_debug; };
category unmatched { null; };
};
</pre>
<p>
In <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> 9, the logging configuration
is only established when
the entire configuration file has been parsed. In <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> 8, it was
established as soon as the <span><strong class="command">logging</strong></span>
statement
was parsed. When the server is starting up, all logging messages
regarding syntax errors in the configuration file go to the default
channels, or to standard error if the "<code class="option">-g</code>" option
was specified.
</p>
<div class="sect3" lang="en">
<div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title">
<a name="id2575256"></a>The <span><strong class="command">channel</strong></span> Phrase</h4></div></div></div>
<p>
All log output goes to one or more <span class="emphasis"><em>channels</em></span>;
you can make as many of them as you want.
</p>
<p>
Every channel definition must include a destination clause that
says whether messages selected for the channel go to a file, to a
particular syslog facility, to the standard error stream, or are
discarded. It can optionally also limit the message severity level
that will be accepted by the channel (the default is
<span><strong class="command">info</strong></span>), and whether to include a
<span><strong class="command">named</strong></span>-generated time stamp, the
category name
and/or severity level (the default is not to include any).
</p>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">null</strong></span> destination clause
causes all messages sent to the channel to be discarded;
in that case, other options for the channel are meaningless.
</p>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">file</strong></span> destination clause directs
the channel
to a disk file. It can include limitations
both on how large the file is allowed to become, and how many
versions
of the file will be saved each time the file is opened.
</p>
<p>
If you use the <span><strong class="command">versions</strong></span> log file
option, then
<span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> will retain that many backup
versions of the file by
renaming them when opening. For example, if you choose to keep
three old versions
of the file <code class="filename">lamers.log</code>, then just
before it is opened
<code class="filename">lamers.log.1</code> is renamed to
<code class="filename">lamers.log.2</code>, <code class="filename">lamers.log.0</code> is renamed
to <code class="filename">lamers.log.1</code>, and <code class="filename">lamers.log</code> is
renamed to <code class="filename">lamers.log.0</code>.
You can say <span><strong class="command">versions unlimited</strong></span> to
not limit
the number of versions.
If a <span><strong class="command">size</strong></span> option is associated with
the log file,
then renaming is only done when the file being opened exceeds the
indicated size. No backup versions are kept by default; any
existing
log file is simply appended.
</p>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">size</strong></span> option for files is used
to limit log
growth. If the file ever exceeds the size, then <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> will
stop writing to the file unless it has a <span><strong class="command">versions</strong></span> option
associated with it. If backup versions are kept, the files are
rolled as
described above and a new one begun. If there is no
<span><strong class="command">versions</strong></span> option, no more data will
be written to the log
until some out-of-band mechanism removes or truncates the log to
less than the
maximum size. The default behavior is not to limit the size of
the
file.
</p>
<p>
Example usage of the <span><strong class="command">size</strong></span> and
<span><strong class="command">versions</strong></span> options:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">channel an_example_channel {
file "example.log" versions 3 size 20m;
print-time yes;
print-category yes;
};
</pre>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">syslog</strong></span> destination clause
directs the
channel to the system log. Its argument is a
syslog facility as described in the <span><strong class="command">syslog</strong></span> man
page. Known facilities are <span><strong class="command">kern</strong></span>, <span><strong class="command">user</strong></span>,
<span><strong class="command">mail</strong></span>, <span><strong class="command">daemon</strong></span>, <span><strong class="command">auth</strong></span>,
<span><strong class="command">syslog</strong></span>, <span><strong class="command">lpr</strong></span>, <span><strong class="command">news</strong></span>,
<span><strong class="command">uucp</strong></span>, <span><strong class="command">cron</strong></span>, <span><strong class="command">authpriv</strong></span>,
<span><strong class="command">ftp</strong></span>, <span><strong class="command">local0</strong></span>, <span><strong class="command">local1</strong></span>,
<span><strong class="command">local2</strong></span>, <span><strong class="command">local3</strong></span>, <span><strong class="command">local4</strong></span>,
<span><strong class="command">local5</strong></span>, <span><strong class="command">local6</strong></span> and
<span><strong class="command">local7</strong></span>, however not all facilities
are supported on
all operating systems.
How <span><strong class="command">syslog</strong></span> will handle messages
sent to
this facility is described in the <span><strong class="command">syslog.conf</strong></span> man
page. If you have a system which uses a very old version of <span><strong class="command">syslog</strong></span> that
only uses two arguments to the <span><strong class="command">openlog()</strong></span> function,
then this clause is silently ignored.
</p>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">severity</strong></span> clause works like <span><strong class="command">syslog</strong></span>'s
"priorities", except that they can also be used if you are writing
straight to a file rather than using <span><strong class="command">syslog</strong></span>.
Messages which are not at least of the severity level given will
not be selected for the channel; messages of higher severity
levels
will be accepted.
</p>
<p>
If you are using <span><strong class="command">syslog</strong></span>, then the <span><strong class="command">syslog.conf</strong></span> priorities
will also determine what eventually passes through. For example,
defining a channel facility and severity as <span><strong class="command">daemon</strong></span> and <span><strong class="command">debug</strong></span> but
only logging <span><strong class="command">daemon.warning</strong></span> via <span><strong class="command">syslog.conf</strong></span> will
cause messages of severity <span><strong class="command">info</strong></span> and
<span><strong class="command">notice</strong></span> to
be dropped. If the situation were reversed, with <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> writing
messages of only <span><strong class="command">warning</strong></span> or higher,
then <span><strong class="command">syslogd</strong></span> would
print all messages it received from the channel.
</p>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">stderr</strong></span> destination clause
directs the
channel to the server's standard error stream. This is intended
for
use when the server is running as a foreground process, for
example
when debugging a configuration.
</p>
<p>
The server can supply extensive debugging information when
it is in debugging mode. If the server's global debug level is
greater
than zero, then debugging mode will be active. The global debug
level is set either by starting the <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> server
with the <code class="option">-d</code> flag followed by a positive integer,
or by running <span><strong class="command">rndc trace</strong></span>.
The global debug level
can be set to zero, and debugging mode turned off, by running <span><strong class="command">rndc
notrace</strong></span>. All debugging messages in the server have a debug
level, and higher debug levels give more detailed output. Channels
that specify a specific debug severity, for example:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">channel specific_debug_level {
file "foo";
severity debug 3;
};
</pre>
<p>
will get debugging output of level 3 or less any time the
server is in debugging mode, regardless of the global debugging
level. Channels with <span><strong class="command">dynamic</strong></span>
severity use the
server's global debug level to determine what messages to print.
</p>
<p>
If <span><strong class="command">print-time</strong></span> has been turned on,
then
the date and time will be logged. <span><strong class="command">print-time</strong></span> may
be specified for a <span><strong class="command">syslog</strong></span> channel,
but is usually
pointless since <span><strong class="command">syslog</strong></span> also logs
the date and
time. If <span><strong class="command">print-category</strong></span> is
requested, then the
category of the message will be logged as well. Finally, if <span><strong class="command">print-severity</strong></span> is
on, then the severity level of the message will be logged. The <span><strong class="command">print-</strong></span> options may
be used in any combination, and will always be printed in the
following
order: time, category, severity. Here is an example where all
three <span><strong class="command">print-</strong></span> options
are on:
</p>
<p>
<code class="computeroutput">28-Feb-2000 15:05:32.863 general: notice: running</code>
</p>
<p>
There are four predefined channels that are used for
<span><strong class="command">named</strong></span>'s default logging as follows.
How they are
used is described in <a href="Bv9ARM.ch06.html#the_category_phrase" title="The category Phrase">the section called “The <span><strong class="command">category</strong></span> Phrase”</a>.
</p>

The <span><strong class="command">default_debug</strong></span> channel has the
special
property that it only produces output when the server's debug
level is
nonzero. It normally writes to a file called <code class="filename">named.run</code>
in the server's working directory.
</p>
<p>
For security reasons, when the "<code class="option">-u</code>"
command line option is used, the <code class="filename">named.run</code> file
is created only after <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> has
changed to the
new UID, and any debug output generated while <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> is
starting up and still running as root is discarded. If you need
to capture this output, you must run the server with the "<code class="option">-g</code>"
option and redirect standard error to a file.
</p>
<p>
Once a channel is defined, it cannot be redefined. Thus you
cannot alter the built-in channels directly, but you can modify
the default logging by pointing categories at channels you have
defined.
</p>
</div>
<div class="sect3" lang="en">
<div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title">
<a name="the_category_phrase"></a>The <span><strong class="command">category</strong></span> Phrase</h4></div></div></div>
<p>
There are many categories, so you can send the logs you want
to see wherever you want, without seeing logs you don't want. If
you don't specify a list of channels for a category, then log
messages
in that category will be sent to the <span><strong class="command">default</strong></span> category
instead. If you don't specify a default category, the following
"default default" is used:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">category default { default_syslog; default_debug; };
</pre>
<p>
As an example, let's say you want to log security events to
a file, but you also want keep the default logging behavior. You'd
specify the following:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">channel my_security_channel {
file "my_security_file";
severity info;
};
category security {
my_security_channel;
default_syslog;
default_debug;
};</pre>
<p>
To discard all messages in a category, specify the <span><strong class="command">null</strong></span> channel:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">category xfer-out { null; };
category notify { null; };
</pre>
<p>
Following are the available categories and brief descriptions
of the types of log information they contain. More
categories may be added in future <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> releases.

(not always returning FORMERR or similar to
EDNS queries and other extensions to the DNS
when they are not understood). In other words, this is
targeted at servers that fail to respond to
DNS queries that they don't understand.
</p>
<p>
Note: the log message can also be due to
packet loss. Before reporting servers for
non-RFC 1034 compliance they should be re-tested
to determine the nature of the non-compliance.
This testing should prevent or reduce the
number of false-positive reports.
</p>
<p>
Note: eventually <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> will have to stop
treating such timeouts as due to RFC 1034 non
compliance and start treating it as plain
packet loss. Falsely classifying packet
loss as due to RFC 1034 non compliance impacts
on DNSSEC validation which requires EDNS for
the DNSSEC records to be returned.

<div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title">
<a name="id2576820"></a>The <span><strong class="command">query-errors</strong></span> Category</h4></div></div></div>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">query-errors</strong></span> category is
specifically intended for debugging purposes: To identify
why and how specific queries result in responses which
indicate an error.
Messages of this category are therefore only logged
with <span><strong class="command">debug</strong></span> levels.
</p>
<p>
At the debug levels of 1 or higher, each response with the
rcode of SERVFAIL is logged as follows:
</p>
<p>
<code class="computeroutput">client 127.0.0.1#61502: query failed (SERVFAIL) for www.example.com/IN/AAAA at query.c:3880</code>
</p>
<p>
This means an error resulting in SERVFAIL was
detected at line 3880 of source file
<code class="filename">query.c</code>.
Log messages of this level will particularly
help identify the cause of SERVFAIL for an
authoritative server.
</p>
<p>
At the debug levels of 2 or higher, detailed context
information of recursive resolutions that resulted in
SERVFAIL is logged.
The log message will look like as follows:
</p>
<p>
<code class="computeroutput">fetch completed at resolver.c:2970 for www.example.com/A in 30.000183: timed out/success [domain:example.com,referral:2,restart:7,qrysent:8,timeout:5,lame:0,neterr:0,badresp:1,adberr:0,findfail:0,valfail:0]</code>
</p>
<p>
The first part before the colon shows that a recursive
resolution for AAAA records of www.example.com completed
in 30.000183 seconds and the final result that led to the
SERVFAIL was determined at line 2970 of source file
<code class="filename">resolver.c</code>.
</p>
<p>
The following part shows the detected final result and the
latest result of DNSSEC validation.
The latter is always success when no validation attempt
is made.
In this example, this query resulted in SERVFAIL probably
because all name servers are down or unreachable, leading
to a timeout in 30 seconds.
DNSSEC validation was probably not attempted.
</p>
<p>
The last part enclosed in square brackets shows statistics
information collected for this particular resolution
attempt.
The <code class="varname">domain</code> field shows the deepest zone
that the resolver reached;
it is the zone where the error was finally detected.
The meaning of the other fields is summarized in the
following table.
</p>
<div class="informaltable"><table border="1">

At the debug levels of 3 or higher, the same messages
as those at the debug 1 level are logged for other errors
than SERVFAIL.
Note that negative responses such as NXDOMAIN are not
regarded as errors here.

<p>
At the debug levels of 4 or higher, the same messages
as those at the debug 2 level are logged for other errors
than SERVFAIL.
Unlike the above case of level 3, messages are logged for
negative responses.
This is because any unexpected results can be difficult to

<p>
The <span><strong class="command">lwres</strong></span> statement configures the
name
server to also act as a lightweight resolver server. (See
<a href="Bv9ARM.ch05.html#lwresd" title="Running a Resolver Daemon">the section called “Running a Resolver Daemon”</a>.) There may be multiple
<span><strong class="command">lwres</strong></span> statements configuring
lightweight resolver servers with different properties.
</p>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">listen-on</strong></span> statement specifies a
list of
addresses (and ports) that this instance of a lightweight resolver
daemon
should accept requests on. If no port is specified, port 921 is
used.
If this statement is omitted, requests will be accepted on
127.0.0.1,
port 921.
</p>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">view</strong></span> statement binds this
instance of a
lightweight resolver daemon to a view in the DNS namespace, so that
the
response will be constructed in the same manner as a normal DNS
query
matching this view. If this statement is omitted, the default view
is
used, and if there is no default view, an error is triggered.
</p>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">search</strong></span> statement is equivalent to
the
<span><strong class="command">search</strong></span> statement in
<code class="filename">/etc/resolv.conf</code>. It provides a
list of domains
which are appended to relative names in queries.
</p>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">ndots</strong></span> statement is equivalent to
the
<span><strong class="command">ndots</strong></span> statement in

minimum
number of dots in a relative domain name that should result in an
exact match lookup before search path elements are appended.

<a name="options"></a><span><strong class="command">options</strong></span> Statement Definition and
Usage</h3></div></div></div>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">options</strong></span> statement sets up global
options
to be used by <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym>. This statement
may appear only
once in a configuration file. If there is no <span><strong class="command">options</strong></span>
statement, an options block with each option set to its default will
be used.
</p>
<div class="variablelist"><dl>
<dt><span class="term"><span><strong class="command">directory</strong></span></span></dt>
<dd><p>
The working directory of the server.
Any non-absolute pathnames in the configuration file will be
taken
as relative to this directory. The default location for most
server
output files (e.g. <code class="filename">named.run</code>)
is this directory.
If a directory is not specified, the working directory
defaults to `<code class="filename">.</code>', the directory from
which the server
was started. The directory specified should be an absolute
path.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term"><span><strong class="command">key-directory</strong></span></span></dt>
<dd><p>
When performing dynamic update of secure zones, the
directory where the public and private DNSSEC key files
should be found, if different than the current working
directory. The directory specified must be an absolute
path. (Note that this option has no effect on the paths
for files containing non-DNSSEC keys such as the
<code class="filename">rndc.key</code>.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term"><span><strong class="command">named-xfer</strong></span></span></dt>
<dd><p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>This option is obsolete.</em></span> It
was used in <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> 8 to specify
the pathname to the <span><strong class="command">named-xfer</strong></span>
program. In <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> 9, no separate
<span><strong class="command">named-xfer</strong></span> program is needed;
its functionality is built into the name server.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term"><span><strong class="command">tkey-gssapi-credential</strong></span></span></dt>
<dd><p>
The security credential with which the server should
authenticate keys requested by the GSS-TSIG protocol.
Currently only Kerberos 5 authentication is available
and the credential is a Kerberos principal which
the server can acquire through the default system
key file, normally <code class="filename">/etc/krb5.keytab</code>.
Normally this principal is of the form
"<strong class="userinput"><code>DNS/</code></strong><code class="varname">server.domain</code>".
To use GSS-TSIG, <span><strong class="command">tkey-domain</strong></span>
must also be set.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term"><span><strong class="command">tkey-domain</strong></span></span></dt>
<dd><p>
The domain appended to the names of all shared keys
generated with <span><strong class="command">TKEY</strong></span>. When a
client requests a <span><strong class="command">TKEY</strong></span> exchange,
it may or may not specify the desired name for the
key. If present, the name of the shared key will
be <code class="varname">client specified part</code> +
<code class="varname">tkey-domain</code>. Otherwise, the
name of the shared key will be <code class="varname">random hex
digits</code> + <code class="varname">tkey-domain</code>.
In most cases, the <span><strong class="command">domainname</strong></span>
should be the server's domain name, or an otherwise
non-existent subdomain like
"_tkey.<code class="varname">domainname</code>". If you are
using GSS-TSIG, this variable must be defined.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term"><span><strong class="command">tkey-dhkey</strong></span></span></dt>
<dd><p>
The Diffie-Hellman key used by the server
to generate shared keys with clients using the Diffie-Hellman
mode
of <span><strong class="command">TKEY</strong></span>. The server must be
able to load the
public and private keys from files in the working directory.
In
most cases, the keyname should be the server's host name.

<dd><p>
This is for testing only. Do not use.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term"><span><strong class="command">dump-file</strong></span></span></dt>
<dd><p>
The pathname of the file the server dumps
the database to when instructed to do so with
<span><strong class="command">rndc dumpdb</strong></span>.
If not specified, the default is <code class="filename">named_dump.db</code>.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term"><span><strong class="command">memstatistics-file</strong></span></span></dt>
<dd><p>
The pathname of the file the server writes memory
usage statistics to on exit. If not specified,
the default is <code class="filename">named.memstats</code>.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term"><span><strong class="command">pid-file</strong></span></span></dt>
<dd><p>
The pathname of the file the server writes its process ID
in. If not specified, the default is
<code class="filename">/var/run/named/named.pid</code>.
The PID file is used by programs that want to send signals to
the running
name server. Specifying <span><strong class="command">pid-file none</strong></span> disables the
use of a PID file — no file will be written and any
existing one will be removed. Note that <span><strong class="command">none</strong></span>
is a keyword, not a filename, and therefore is not enclosed
in
double quotes.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term"><span><strong class="command">recursing-file</strong></span></span></dt>
<dd><p>
The pathname of the file the server dumps
the queries that are currently recursing when instructed
to do so with <span><strong class="command">rndc recursing</strong></span>.
If not specified, the default is <code class="filename">named.recursing</code>.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term"><span><strong class="command">statistics-file</strong></span></span></dt>
<dd><p>
The pathname of the file the server appends statistics
to when instructed to do so using <span><strong class="command">rndc stats</strong></span>.
If not specified, the default is <code class="filename">named.stats</code> in the
server's current directory. The format of the file is
described
in <a href="Bv9ARM.ch06.html#statsfile" title="The Statistics File">the section called “The Statistics File”</a>.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term"><span><strong class="command">port</strong></span></span></dt>
<dd><p>
The UDP/TCP port number the server uses for
receiving and sending DNS protocol traffic.
The default is 53. This option is mainly intended for server
testing;
a server using a port other than 53 will not be able to
communicate with
the global DNS.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term"><span><strong class="command">random-device</strong></span></span></dt>
<dd><p>
The source of entropy to be used by the server. Entropy is
primarily needed
for DNSSEC operations, such as TKEY transactions and dynamic
update of signed
zones. This options specifies the device (or file) from which
to read
entropy. If this is a file, operations requiring entropy will
fail when the
file has been exhausted. If not specified, the default value
is
<code class="filename">/dev/random</code>
(or equivalent) when present, and none otherwise. The
<span><strong class="command">random-device</strong></span> option takes
effect during
the initial configuration load at server startup time and
is ignored on subsequent reloads.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term"><span><strong class="command">preferred-glue</strong></span></span></dt>
<dd><p>
If specified, the listed type (A or AAAA) will be emitted
before other glue
in the additional section of a query response.
The default is not to prefer any type (NONE).
</p></dd>
<dt>
<a name="root_delegation_only"></a><span class="term"><span><strong class="command">root-delegation-only</strong></span></span>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Turn on enforcement of delegation-only in TLDs
(top level domains) and root zones with an optional
exclude list.
</p>
<p>
DS queries are expected to be made to and be answered by
delegation only zones. Such queries and responses are
treated as a exception to delegation-only processing
and are not converted to NXDOMAIN responses provided
a CNAME is not discovered at the query name.
</p>
<p>
If a delegation only zone server also serves a child
zone it is not always possible to determine whether
a answer comes from the delegation only zone or the
child zone. SOA NS and DNSKEY records are apex
only records and a matching response that contains
these records or DS is treated as coming from a
child zone. RRSIG records are also examined to see
if they are signed by a child zone or not. The
authority section is also examined to see if there
is evidence that the answer is from the child zone.
Answers that are determined to be from a child zone
are not converted to NXDOMAIN responses. Despite
all these checks there is still a possibility of
false negatives when a child zone is being served.
</p>
<p>
Similarly false positives can arise from empty nodes
(no records at the name) in the delegation only zone
when the query type is not ANY.
</p>
<p>
Note some TLDs are not delegation only (e.g. "DE", "LV",
"US" and "MUSEUM"). This list is not exhaustive.

<dt><span class="term"><span><strong class="command">disable-algorithms</strong></span></span></dt>
<dd><p>
Disable the specified DNSSEC algorithms at and below the

Multiple <span><strong class="command">disable-algorithms</strong></span>
statements are allowed.
Only the most specific will be applied.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term"><span><strong class="command">dnssec-lookaside</strong></span></span></dt>
<dd><p>
When set, <span><strong class="command">dnssec-lookaside</strong></span>
provides the
validator with an alternate method to validate DNSKEY records
at the
top of a zone. When a DNSKEY is at or below a domain
specified by the
deepest <span><strong class="command">dnssec-lookaside</strong></span>, and
the normal DNSSEC validation
has left the key untrusted, the trust-anchor will be append to
the key
name and a DLV record will be looked up to see if it can
validate the
key. If the DLV record validates a DNSKEY (similarly to the
way a DS
record does) the DNSKEY RRset is deemed to be trusted.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term"><span><strong class="command">dnssec-must-be-secure</strong></span></span></dt>
<dd><p>
Specify hierarchies which must be or may not be secure (signed and
validated).
If <strong class="userinput"><code>yes</code></strong>, then <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> will only accept
answers if they
are secure.
If <strong class="userinput"><code>no</code></strong>, then normal DNSSEC validation
applies
allowing for insecure answers to be accepted.
The specified domain must be under a <span><strong class="command">trusted-key</strong></span> or
<span><strong class="command">dnssec-lookaside</strong></span> must be
active.

<dd><p>
If <strong class="userinput"><code>yes</code></strong>, then the <span><strong class="command">AA</strong></span> bit
is always set on NXDOMAIN responses, even if the server is
not actually
authoritative. The default is <strong class="userinput"><code>no</code></strong>;
this is
a change from <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> 8. If you
are using very old DNS software, you
may need to set it to <strong class="userinput"><code>yes</code></strong>.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term"><span><strong class="command">deallocate-on-exit</strong></span></span></dt>
<dd><p>
This option was used in <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym>
8 to enable checking
for memory leaks on exit. <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> 9 ignores the option and always performs
the checks.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term"><span><strong class="command">memstatistics</strong></span></span></dt>
<dd><p>
Write memory statistics to the file specified by
<span><strong class="command">memstatistics-file</strong></span> at exit.
The default is <strong class="userinput"><code>no</code></strong> unless
'-m record' is specified on the command line in
which case it is <strong class="userinput"><code>yes</code></strong>.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term"><span><strong class="command">dialup</strong></span></span></dt>
<dd>
<p>
If <strong class="userinput"><code>yes</code></strong>, then the
server treats all zones as if they are doing zone transfers
across
a dial-on-demand dialup link, which can be brought up by
traffic
originating from this server. This has different effects
according
to zone type and concentrates the zone maintenance so that
it all
happens in a short interval, once every <span><strong class="command">heartbeat-interval</strong></span> and
hopefully during the one call. It also suppresses some of
the normal
zone maintenance traffic. The default is <strong class="userinput"><code>no</code></strong>.
</p>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">dialup</strong></span> option
may also be specified in the <span><strong class="command">view</strong></span> and
<span><strong class="command">zone</strong></span> statements,
in which case it overrides the global <span><strong class="command">dialup</strong></span>
option.
</p>
<p>
If the zone is a master zone, then the server will send out a
NOTIFY
request to all the slaves (default). This should trigger the
zone serial
number check in the slave (providing it supports NOTIFY)
allowing the slave
to verify the zone while the connection is active.
The set of servers to which NOTIFY is sent can be controlled
by
<span><strong class="command">notify</strong></span> and <span><strong class="command">also-notify</strong></span>.
</p>
<p>
If the
zone is a slave or stub zone, then the server will suppress
the regular
"zone up to date" (refresh) queries and only perform them
when the
<span><strong class="command">heartbeat-interval</strong></span> expires in
addition to sending
NOTIFY requests.
</p>
<p>
Finer control can be achieved by using
<strong class="userinput"><code>notify</code></strong> which only sends NOTIFY
messages,
<strong class="userinput"><code>notify-passive</code></strong> which sends NOTIFY
messages and
suppresses the normal refresh queries, <strong class="userinput"><code>refresh</code></strong>
which suppresses normal refresh processing and sends refresh
queries
when the <span><strong class="command">heartbeat-interval</strong></span>
expires, and
<strong class="userinput"><code>passive</code></strong> which just disables normal
refresh
processing.

<dd>
<p>
These options control the behavior of an authoritative
server when
answering queries which have additional data, or when
following CNAME
and DNAME chains.
</p>
<p>
When both of these options are set to <strong class="userinput"><code>yes</code></strong>
(the default) and a
query is being answered from authoritative data (a zone
configured into the server), the additional data section of
the
reply will be filled in using data from other authoritative
zones
and from the cache. In some situations this is undesirable,
such
as when there is concern over the correctness of the cache,
or
in servers where slave zones may be added and modified by
untrusted third parties. Also, avoiding
the search for this additional data will speed up server
operations
at the possible expense of additional queries to resolve
what would
otherwise be provided in the additional section.
</p>
<p>
For example, if a query asks for an MX record for host <code class="literal">foo.example.com</code>,
and the record found is "<code class="literal">MX 10 mail.example.net</code>", normally the address
records (A and AAAA) for <code class="literal">mail.example.net</code> will be provided as well,
if known, even though they are not in the example.com zone.
Setting these options to <span><strong class="command">no</strong></span>
disables this behavior and makes
the server only search for additional data in the zone it
answers from.
</p>
<p>
These options are intended for use in authoritative-only
servers, or in authoritative-only views. Attempts to set
them to <span><strong class="command">no</strong></span> without also
specifying
<span><strong class="command">recursion no</strong></span> will cause the
server to
ignore the options and log a warning message.
</p>
<p>
Specifying <span><strong class="command">additional-from-cache no</strong></span> actually
disables the use of the cache not only for additional data
lookups
but also when looking up the answer. This is usually the
desired
behavior in an authoritative-only server where the
correctness of
the cached data is an issue.
</p>
<p>
When a name server is non-recursively queried for a name
that is not
below the apex of any served zone, it normally answers with
an
"upwards referral" to the root servers or the servers of
some other
known parent of the query name. Since the data in an
upwards referral
comes from the cache, the server will not be able to provide
upwards
referrals when <span><strong class="command">additional-from-cache no</strong></span>
has been specified. Instead, it will respond to such
queries
with REFUSED. This should not cause any problems since
upwards referrals are not required for the resolution
process.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span class="term"><span><strong class="command">match-mapped-addresses</strong></span></span></dt>
<dd>
<p>
If <strong class="userinput"><code>yes</code></strong>, then an
IPv4-mapped IPv6 address will match any address match
list entries that match the corresponding IPv4 address.
</p>
<p>
This option was introduced to work around a kernel quirk
in some operating systems that causes IPv4 TCP
connections, such as zone transfers, to be accepted on an
IPv6 socket using mapped addresses. This caused address
match lists designed for IPv4 to fail to match. However,
<span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> now solves this problem
internally. The use of this option is discouraged.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span class="term"><span><strong class="command">ixfr-from-differences</strong></span></span></dt>
<dd>
<p>
When <strong class="userinput"><code>yes</code></strong> and the server loads a new version of a master
zone from its zone file or receives a new version of a slave
file by a non-incremental zone transfer, it will compare
the new version to the previous one and calculate a set
of differences. The differences are then logged in the
zone's journal file such that the changes can be transmitted
to downstream slaves as an incremental zone transfer.
</p>
<p>
By allowing incremental zone transfers to be used for
non-dynamic zones, this option saves bandwidth at the
expense of increased CPU and memory consumption at the
master.
In particular, if the new version of a zone is completely
different from the previous one, the set of differences
will be of a size comparable to the combined size of the
old and new zone version, and the server will need to
temporarily allocate memory to hold this complete
difference set.
</p>
<p><span><strong class="command">ixfr-from-differences</strong></span>

<a name="id2582420"></a>Interfaces</h4></div></div></div>
<p>
The interfaces and ports that the server will answer queries
from may be specified using the <span><strong class="command">listen-on</strong></span> option. <span><strong class="command">listen-on</strong></span> takes
an optional port and an <code class="varname">address_match_list</code>.
The server will listen on all interfaces allowed by the address
match list. If a port is not specified, port 53 will be used.
</p>
<p>
Multiple <span><strong class="command">listen-on</strong></span> statements are
allowed.
For example,
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">listen-on { 5.6.7.8; };
listen-on port 1234 { !1.2.3.4; 1.2/16; };
</pre>
<p>
will enable the name server on port 53 for the IP address
5.6.7.8, and on port 1234 of an address on the machine in net
1.2 that is not 1.2.3.4.
</p>
<p>
If no <span><strong class="command">listen-on</strong></span> is specified, the
server will listen on port 53 on all IPv4 interfaces.
</p>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">listen-on-v6</strong></span> option is used to
specify the interfaces and the ports on which the server will
listen
for incoming queries sent using IPv6.
</p>
<p>
When </p>
<pre class="programlisting">{ any; }</pre>
<p> is
specified
as the <code class="varname">address_match_list</code> for the
<span><strong class="command">listen-on-v6</strong></span> option,
the server does not bind a separate socket to each IPv6 interface
address as it does for IPv4 if the operating system has enough API
support for IPv6 (specifically if it conforms to RFC 3493 and RFC
3542).
Instead, it listens on the IPv6 wildcard address.
If the system only has incomplete API support for IPv6, however,
the behavior is the same as that for IPv4.
</p>
<p>
A list of particular IPv6 addresses can also be specified, in
which case
the server listens on a separate socket for each specified
address,
regardless of whether the desired API is supported by the system.
</p>
<p>
Multiple <span><strong class="command">listen-on-v6</strong></span> options can
be used.
For example,
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">listen-on-v6 { any; };
listen-on-v6 port 1234 { !2001:db8::/32; any; };
</pre>
<p>
will enable the name server on port 53 for any IPv6 addresses
(with a single wildcard socket),
and on port 1234 of IPv6 addresses that is not in the prefix
2001:db8::/32 (with separate sockets for each matched address.)
</p>
<p>
To make the server not listen on any IPv6 address, use
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">listen-on-v6 { none; };
</pre>
<p>
If no <span><strong class="command">listen-on-v6</strong></span> option is
specified, the server will not listen on any IPv6 address
unless <span><strong class="command">-6</strong></span> is specified when <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> is
invoked. If <span><strong class="command">-6</strong></span> is specified then
<span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> will listen on port 53 on all IPv6 interfaces by default.

<div class="sect3" lang="en">
<div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title">
<a name="query_address"></a>Query Address</h4></div></div></div>
<p>
If the server doesn't know the answer to a question, it will
query other name servers. <span><strong class="command">query-source</strong></span> specifies
the address and port used for such queries. For queries sent over
IPv6, there is a separate <span><strong class="command">query-source-v6</strong></span> option.
If <span><strong class="command">address</strong></span> is <span><strong class="command">*</strong></span> (asterisk) or is omitted,
a wildcard IP address (<span><strong class="command">INADDR_ANY</strong></span>)
will be used.
</p>
<p>
If <span><strong class="command">port</strong></span> is <span><strong class="command">*</strong></span> or is omitted,
a random port number from a pre-configured
range is picked up and will be used for each query.
The port range(s) is that specified in
the <span><strong class="command">use-v4-udp-ports</strong></span> (for IPv4)
and <span><strong class="command">use-v6-udp-ports</strong></span> (for IPv6)
options, excluding the ranges specified in
the <span><strong class="command">avoid-v4-udp-ports</strong></span>
and <span><strong class="command">avoid-v6-udp-ports</strong></span> options, respectively.
</p>
<p>
The defaults of the <span><strong class="command">query-source</strong></span> and
<span><strong class="command">query-source-v6</strong></span> options
are:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">query-source address * port *;
query-source-v6 address * port *;
</pre>
<p>
If <span><strong class="command">use-v4-udp-ports</strong></span> or
<span><strong class="command">use-v6-udp-ports</strong></span> is unspecified,
<span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> will check if the operating
system provides a programming interface to retrieve the
system's default range for ephemeral ports.
If such an interface is available,
<span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> will use the corresponding system
default range; otherwise, it will use its own defaults:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">use-v4-udp-ports { range 1024 65535; };
use-v6-udp-ports { range 1024 65535; };
</pre>
<p>
Note: make sure the ranges be sufficiently large for
security. A desirable size depends on various parameters,
but we generally recommend it contain at least 16384 ports
(14 bits of entropy).
Note also that the system's default range when used may be
too small for this purpose, and that the range may even be
changed while <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> is running; the new
range will automatically be applied when <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span>
is reloaded.
It is encouraged to
configure <span><strong class="command">use-v4-udp-ports</strong></span> and
<span><strong class="command">use-v6-udp-ports</strong></span> explicitly so that the
ranges are sufficiently large and are reasonably
independent from the ranges used by other applications.
</p>
<p>
Note: the operational configuration
where <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> runs may prohibit the use
of some ports. For example, UNIX systems will not allow
<span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> running without a root privilege
to use ports less than 1024.
If such ports are included in the specified (or detected)
set of query ports, the corresponding query attempts will
fail, resulting in resolution failures or delay.
It is therefore important to configure the set of ports
that can be safely used in the expected operational environment.
</p>
<p>
The defaults of the <span><strong class="command">avoid-v4-udp-ports</strong></span> and
<span><strong class="command">avoid-v6-udp-ports</strong></span> options
are:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">avoid-v4-udp-ports {};
avoid-v6-udp-ports {};
</pre>
<p>
Note: BIND 9.5.0 introduced
the <span><strong class="command">use-queryport-pool</strong></span>
option to support a pool of such random ports, but this
option is now obsolete because reusing the same ports in
the pool may not be sufficiently secure.
For the same reason, it is generally strongly discouraged to
specify a particular port for the
<span><strong class="command">query-source</strong></span> or
<span><strong class="command">query-source-v6</strong></span> options;
it implicitly disables the use of randomized port numbers.

Slave servers will periodically query master servers

<a name="id2583751"></a>Operating System Resource Limits</h4></div></div></div>
<p>
The server's usage of many system resources can be limited.
Scaled values are allowed when specifying resource limits. For
example, <span><strong class="command">1G</strong></span> can be used instead of
<span><strong class="command">1073741824</strong></span> to specify a limit of
one
gigabyte. <span><strong class="command">unlimited</strong></span> requests
unlimited use, or the
maximum available amount. <span><strong class="command">default</strong></span>
uses the limit
that was in force when the server was started. See the description
of <span><strong class="command">size_spec</strong></span> in <a href="Bv9ARM.ch06.html#configuration_file_elements" title="Configuration File Elements">the section called “Configuration File Elements”</a>.
</p>
<p>
The following options set operating system resource limits for
the name server process. Some operating systems don't support
some or
any of the limits. On such systems, a warning will be issued if
the
unsupported limit is used.
</p>
<div class="variablelist"><dl>

<dd><p>
The maximum amount of data memory the server
may use. The default is <code class="literal">default</code>.
This is a hard limit on server memory usage.
If the server attempts to allocate memory in excess of this
limit, the allocation will fail, which may in turn leave
the server unable to perform DNS service. Therefore,
this option is rarely useful as a way of limiting the
amount of memory used by the server, but it can be used
to raise an operating system data size limit that is
too small by default. If you wish to limit the amount
of memory used by the server, use the

The maximum number of simultaneous recursive lookups
the server will perform on behalf of clients. The default

client uses a fair
bit of memory, on the order of 20 kilobytes, the value of

have to be decreased
on hosts with limited memory.
</p></dd>

</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term"><span><strong class="command">reserved-sockets</strong></span></span></dt>

The number of file descriptors reserved for TCP, stdio,

transfers. The default is <code class="literal">512</code>.
The minimum value is <code class="literal">128</code> and the

<p>
This option has little effect on Windows.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span class="term"><span><strong class="command">max-cache-size</strong></span></span></dt>
<dd><p>
The maximum amount of memory to use for the
server's cache, in bytes.
When the amount of data in the cache
reaches this limit, the server will cause records to expire
prematurely based on an LRU based strategy so that
the limit is not exceeded.
A value of 0 is special, meaning that
records are purged from the cache only when their
TTLs expire.
Another special keyword <strong class="userinput"><code>unlimited</code></strong>
means the maximum value of 32-bit unsigned integers
(0xffffffff), which may not have the same effect as
0 on machines that support more than 32 bits of
memory space.
Any positive values less than 2MB will be ignored reset
to 2MB.
In a server with multiple views, the limit applies
separately to the cache of each view.
The default is 0.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term"><span><strong class="command">tcp-listen-queue</strong></span></span></dt>
<dd><p>
The listen queue depth. The default and minimum is 3.
If the kernel supports the accept filter "dataready" this

will be
silently raised.

<p>
All other things being equal, when the server chooses a name
server
to query from a list of name servers, it prefers the one that is
topologically closest to itself. The <span><strong class="command">topology</strong></span> statement
takes an <span><strong class="command">address_match_list</strong></span> and
interprets it
in a special way. Each top-level list element is assigned a
distance.
Non-negated elements get a distance based on their position in the
list, where the closer the match is to the start of the list, the
shorter the distance is between it and the server. A negated match
will be assigned the maximum distance from the server. If there
is no match, the address will get a distance which is further than
any non-negated list element, and closer than any negated element.
For example,
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">topology {
10/8;
!1.2.3/24;
{ 1.2/16; 3/8; };
};</pre>
<p>
will prefer servers on network 10 the most, followed by hosts
on network 1.2.0.0 (netmask 255.255.0.0) and network 3, with the
exception of hosts on network 1.2.3 (netmask 255.255.255.0), which
is preferred least of all.
</p>
<p>
The default topology is

<a name="the_sortlist_statement"></a>The <span><strong class="command">sortlist</strong></span> Statement</h4></div></div></div>
<p>
The response to a DNS query may consist of multiple resource
records (RRs) forming a resource records set (RRset).
The name server will normally return the
RRs within the RRset in an indeterminate order
(but see the <span><strong class="command">rrset-order</strong></span>
statement in <a href="Bv9ARM.ch06.html#rrset_ordering" title="RRset Ordering">the section called “RRset Ordering”</a>).
The client resolver code should rearrange the RRs as appropriate,
that is, using any addresses on the local net in preference to
other addresses.
However, not all resolvers can do this or are correctly
configured.
When a client is using a local server, the sorting can be performed
in the server, based on the client's address. This only requires
configuring the name servers, not all the clients.
</p>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">sortlist</strong></span> statement (see below)
takes
an <span><strong class="command">address_match_list</strong></span> and
interprets it even
more specifically than the <span><strong class="command">topology</strong></span>
statement
does (<a href="Bv9ARM.ch06.html#topology" title="Topology">the section called “Topology”</a>).
Each top level statement in the <span><strong class="command">sortlist</strong></span> must
itself be an explicit <span><strong class="command">address_match_list</strong></span> with
one or two elements. The first element (which may be an IP
address,
an IP prefix, an ACL name or a nested <span><strong class="command">address_match_list</strong></span>)
of each top level list is checked against the source address of
the query until a match is found.
</p>
<p>
Once the source address of the query has been matched, if
the top level statement contains only one element, the actual
primitive
element that matched the source address is used to select the
address
in the response to move to the beginning of the response. If the
statement is a list of two elements, then the second element is
treated the same as the <span><strong class="command">address_match_list</strong></span> in
a <span><strong class="command">topology</strong></span> statement. Each top
level element
is assigned a distance and the address in the response with the
minimum
distance is moved to the beginning of the response.
</p>
<p>
In the following example, any queries received from any of
the addresses of the host itself will get responses preferring
addresses
on any of the locally connected networks. Next most preferred are
addresses
on the 192.168.1/24 network, and after that either the
192.168.2/24
or
192.168.3/24 network with no preference shown between these two
networks. Queries received from a host on the 192.168.1/24 network
will prefer other addresses on that network to the 192.168.2/24
and
192.168.3/24 networks. Queries received from a host on the
192.168.4/24
or the 192.168.5/24 network will only prefer other addresses on
their directly connected networks.
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">sortlist {
{ localhost; // IF the local host
{ localnets; // THEN first fit on the
192.168.1/24; // following nets
{ 192.168.2/24; 192.168.3/24; }; }; };
{ 192.168.1/24; // IF on class C 192.168.1
{ 192.168.1/24; // THEN use .1, or .2 or .3
{ 192.168.2/24; 192.168.3/24; }; }; };
{ 192.168.2/24; // IF on class C 192.168.2
{ 192.168.2/24; // THEN use .2, or .1 or .3
{ 192.168.1/24; 192.168.3/24; }; }; };
{ 192.168.3/24; // IF on class C 192.168.3
{ 192.168.3/24; // THEN use .3, or .1 or .2
{ 192.168.1/24; 192.168.2/24; }; }; };
{ { 192.168.4/24; 192.168.5/24; }; // if .4 or .5, prefer that net
};
};</pre>
<p>
The following example will give reasonable behavior for the
local host and hosts on directly connected networks. It is similar
to the behavior of the address sort in <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> 4.9.x. Responses sent
to queries from the local host will favor any of the directly
connected
networks. Responses sent to queries from any other hosts on a
directly
connected network will prefer addresses on that same network.
Responses
to other queries will not be sorted.

Sets the advertised EDNS UDP buffer size in bytes
to control the size of packets received.
Valid values are 512 to 4096 (values outside this range
will be silently adjusted). The default value
is 4096. The usual reason for setting
<span><strong class="command">edns-udp-size</strong></span> to a non-default

this range will be silently adjusted). The default
value is 4096. The usual reason for setting
<span><strong class="command">max-udp-size</strong></span> to a non-default value is to get UDP
answers to pass through broken firewalls that
block fragmented packets and/or block UDP packets

<dd><p>Specifies
the file format of zone files (see

The default value is <code class="constant">text</code>, which is the
standard textual representation. Files in other formats
than <code class="constant">text</code> are typically expected
to be generated by the <span><strong class="command">named-compilezone</strong></span> tool.
Note that when a zone file in a different format than
<code class="constant">text</code> is loaded, <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span>
may omit some of the checks which would be performed for a
file in the <code class="constant">text</code> format. In particular,
<span><strong class="command">check-names</strong></span> checks do not apply
for the <code class="constant">raw</code> format. This means
a zone file in the <code class="constant">raw</code> format
must be generated with the same check level as that
specified in the <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> configuration
file. This statement sets the
<span><strong class="command">masterfile-format</strong></span> for all zones,
but can be overridden on a per-zone or per-view basis
by including a <span><strong class="command">masterfile-format</strong></span>

before dropping additional clients. <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> will attempt to
self tune this value and changes will be logged. The
default values are 10 and 100.
</p>
<p>
This value should reflect how many queries come in for
a given name in the time it takes to resolve that name.
If the number of queries exceed this value, <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> will
assume that it is dealing with a non-responsive zone

<p>
Named has some built-in empty zones (SOA and NS records only).
These are for zones that should normally be answered locally
and which queries should not be sent to the Internet's root
servers. The official servers which cover these namespaces
return NXDOMAIN responses to these queries. In particular,
these cover the reverse namespace for addresses from RFC 1918 and
RFC 3330. They also include the reverse namespace for IPv6 local
address (locally assigned), IPv6 link local addresses, the IPv6
loopback address and the IPv6 unknown address.
</p>
<p>
Named will attempt to determine if a built-in zone already exists
or is active (covered by a forward-only forwarding declaration)
and will not create a empty zone in that case.
</p>
<p>
The current list of empty zones is:
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc">
<li>0.IN-ADDR.ARPA</li>
<li>127.IN-ADDR.ARPA</li>

<p>
Empty zones are settable at the view level and only apply to
views of class IN. Disabled empty zones are only inherited
from options if there are no disabled empty zones specified
at the view level. To override the options list of disabled
zones, you can disable the root zone at the view level, for example:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">
disable-empty-zone ".";
</pre>
<p>
</p>
<p>
If you are using the address ranges covered here, you should
already have reverse zones covering the addresses you use.
In practice this appears to not be the case with many queries
being made to the infrastructure servers for names in these
spaces. So many in fact that sacrificial servers were needed
to be deployed to channel the query load away from the
infrastructure servers.
</p>
<div class="note" style="margin-left: 0.5in; margin-right: 0.5in;">

<a name="acache"></a>Additional Section Caching</h4></div></div></div>
<p>
The additional section cache, also called <span><strong class="command">acache</strong></span>,
is an internal cache to improve the response performance of BIND 9.
When additional section caching is enabled, BIND 9 will
cache an internal short-cut to the additional section content for
each answer RR.
Note that <span><strong class="command">acache</strong></span> is an internal caching
mechanism of BIND 9, and is not related to the DNS caching
server function.
</p>
<p>
Additional section caching does not change the
response content (except the RRsets ordering of the additional
section, see below), but can improve the response performance
significantly.
It is particularly effective when BIND 9 acts as an authoritative
server for a zone that has many delegations with many glue RRs.
</p>
<p>
In order to obtain the maximum performance improvement
from additional section caching, setting
<span><strong class="command">additional-from-cache</strong></span>
to <span><strong class="command">no</strong></span> is recommended, since the current
implementation of <span><strong class="command">acache</strong></span>
does not short-cut of additional section information from the
DNS cache data.
</p>
<p>
One obvious disadvantage of <span><strong class="command">acache</strong></span> is
that it requires much more
memory for the internal cached data.
Thus, if the response performance does not matter and memory
consumption is much more critical, the
<span><strong class="command">acache</strong></span> mechanism can be
disabled by setting <span><strong class="command">acache-enable</strong></span> to
<span><strong class="command">no</strong></span>.
It is also possible to specify the upper limit of memory
consumption
for acache by using <span><strong class="command">max-acache-size</strong></span>.
</p>
<p>
Additional section caching also has a minor effect on the
RRset ordering in the additional section.
Without <span><strong class="command">acache</strong></span>,
<span><strong class="command">cyclic</strong></span> order is effective for the additional
section as well as the answer and authority sections.
However, additional section caching fixes the ordering when it
first caches an RRset for the additional section, and the same
ordering will be kept in succeeding responses, regardless of the
setting of <span><strong class="command">rrset-order</strong></span>.
The effect of this should be minor, however, since an
RRset in the additional section
typically only contains a small number of RRs (and in many cases
it only contains a single RR), in which case the
ordering does not matter much.
</p>
<p>
The following is a summary of options related to
<span><strong class="command">acache</strong></span>.
</p>
<div class="variablelist"><dl>
<dt><span class="term"><span><strong class="command">acache-enable</strong></span></span></dt>

<dd><p>
The server will remove stale cache entries, based on an LRU
based
algorithm, every <span><strong class="command">acache-cleaning-interval</strong></span> minutes.
The default is 60 minutes.
If set to 0, no periodic cleaning will occur.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term"><span><strong class="command">max-acache-size</strong></span></span></dt>
<dd><p>
The maximum amount of memory in bytes to use for the server's acache.
When the amount of data in the acache reaches this limit,
the server
will clean more aggressively so that the limit is not
exceeded.
In a server with multiple views, the limit applies
separately to the
acache of each view.
The default is <code class="literal">16M</code>.

<a name="server_statement_definition_and_usage"></a><span><strong class="command">server</strong></span> Statement Definition and
Usage</h3></div></div></div>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">server</strong></span> statement defines
characteristics
to be associated with a remote name server. If a prefix length is
specified, then a range of servers is covered. Only the most
specific
server clause applies regardless of the order in
<code class="filename">named.conf</code>.
</p>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">server</strong></span> statement can occur at
the top level of the
configuration file or inside a <span><strong class="command">view</strong></span>
statement.
If a <span><strong class="command">view</strong></span> statement contains
one or more <span><strong class="command">server</strong></span> statements, only
those
apply to the view and any top-level ones are ignored.
If a view contains no <span><strong class="command">server</strong></span>
statements,
any top-level <span><strong class="command">server</strong></span> statements are
used as
defaults.
</p>
<p>
If you discover that a remote server is giving out bad data,
marking it as bogus will prevent further queries to it. The
default
value of <span><strong class="command">bogus</strong></span> is <span><strong class="command">no</strong></span>.
</p>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">provide-ixfr</strong></span> clause determines
whether
the local server, acting as master, will respond with an
incremental
zone transfer when the given remote server, a slave, requests it.
If set to <span><strong class="command">yes</strong></span>, incremental transfer
will be provided
whenever possible. If set to <span><strong class="command">no</strong></span>,
all transfers
to the remote server will be non-incremental. If not set, the
value
of the <span><strong class="command">provide-ixfr</strong></span> option in the
view or
global options block is used as a default.
</p>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">request-ixfr</strong></span> clause determines
whether
the local server, acting as a slave, will request incremental zone
transfers from the given remote server, a master. If not set, the
value of the <span><strong class="command">request-ixfr</strong></span> option in
the view or
global options block is used as a default.
</p>
<p>
IXFR requests to servers that do not support IXFR will
automatically
fall back to AXFR. Therefore, there is no need to manually list
which servers support IXFR and which ones do not; the global
default
of <span><strong class="command">yes</strong></span> should always work.
The purpose of the <span><strong class="command">provide-ixfr</strong></span> and
<span><strong class="command">request-ixfr</strong></span> clauses is
to make it possible to disable the use of IXFR even when both
master
and slave claim to support it, for example if one of the servers
is buggy and crashes or corrupts data when IXFR is used.
</p>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">edns</strong></span> clause determines whether
the local server will attempt to use EDNS when communicating
with the remote server. The default is <span><strong class="command">yes</strong></span>.
</p>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">edns-udp-size</strong></span> option sets the EDNS UDP size
that is advertised by <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> when querying the remote server.
Valid values are 512 to 4096 bytes (values outside this range will be
silently adjusted). This option is useful when you wish to
advertises a different value to this server than the value you
advertise globally, for example, when there is a firewall at the
remote site that is blocking large replies.
</p>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">max-udp-size</strong></span> option sets the
maximum EDNS UDP message size <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> will send. Valid
values are 512 to 4096 bytes (values outside this range will
be silently adjusted). This option is useful when you
know that there is a firewall that is blocking large
replies from <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span>.
</p>
<p>
The server supports two zone transfer methods. The first, <span><strong class="command">one-answer</strong></span>,
uses one DNS message per resource record transferred. <span><strong class="command">many-answers</strong></span> packs
as many resource records as possible into a message. <span><strong class="command">many-answers</strong></span> is
more efficient, but is only known to be understood by <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> 9, <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym>
8.x, and patched versions of <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym>
4.9.5. You can specify which method
to use for a server with the <span><strong class="command">transfer-format</strong></span> option.
If <span><strong class="command">transfer-format</strong></span> is not
specified, the <span><strong class="command">transfer-format</strong></span>
specified
by the <span><strong class="command">options</strong></span> statement will be
used.
</p>
<p><span><strong class="command">transfers</strong></span>
is used to limit the number of concurrent inbound zone
transfers from the specified server. If no
<span><strong class="command">transfers</strong></span> clause is specified, the
limit is set according to the
<span><strong class="command">transfers-per-ns</strong></span> option.
</p>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">keys</strong></span> clause identifies a
<span><strong class="command">key_id</strong></span> defined by the <span><strong class="command">key</strong></span> statement,
to be used for transaction security (TSIG, <a href="Bv9ARM.ch04.html#tsig" title="TSIG">the section called “TSIG”</a>)
when talking to the remote server.
When a request is sent to the remote server, a request signature
will be generated using the key specified here and appended to the
message. A request originating from the remote server is not
required
to be signed by this key.
</p>
<p>
Although the grammar of the <span><strong class="command">keys</strong></span>
clause
allows for multiple keys, only a single key per server is
currently
supported.
</p>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">transfer-source</strong></span> and
<span><strong class="command">transfer-source-v6</strong></span> clauses specify
the IPv4 and IPv6 source
address to be used for zone transfer with the remote server,
respectively.
For an IPv4 remote server, only <span><strong class="command">transfer-source</strong></span> can
be specified.
Similarly, for an IPv6 remote server, only
<span><strong class="command">transfer-source-v6</strong></span> can be
specified.
For more details, see the description of
<span><strong class="command">transfer-source</strong></span> and
<span><strong class="command">transfer-source-v6</strong></span> in
<a href="Bv9ARM.ch06.html#zone_transfers" title="Zone Transfers">the section called “Zone Transfers”</a>.
</p>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">notify-source</strong></span> and
<span><strong class="command">notify-source-v6</strong></span> clauses specify the
IPv4 and IPv6 source address to be used for notify
messages sent to remote servers, respectively. For an
IPv4 remote server, only <span><strong class="command">notify-source</strong></span>
can be specified. Similarly, for an IPv6 remote server,
only <span><strong class="command">notify-source-v6</strong></span> can be specified.
</p>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">query-source</strong></span> and
<span><strong class="command">query-source-v6</strong></span> clauses specify the
IPv4 and IPv6 source address to be used for queries
sent to remote servers, respectively. For an IPv4
remote server, only <span><strong class="command">query-source</strong></span> can
be specified. Similarly, for an IPv6 remote server,
only <span><strong class="command">query-source-v6</strong></span> can be specified.

The <span><strong class="command">statistics-channels</strong></span> statement
declares communication channels to be used by system
administrators to get access to statistics information of
the name server.
</p>
<p>
This statement intends to be flexible to support multiple
communication protocols in the future, but currently only
HTTP access is supported.
It requires that BIND 9 be compiled with libxml2;
the <span><strong class="command">statistics-channels</strong></span> statement is
still accepted even if it is built without the library,
but any HTTP access will fail with an error.
</p>
<p>
An <span><strong class="command">inet</strong></span> control channel is a TCP socket
listening at the specified <span><strong class="command">ip_port</strong></span> on the
specified <span><strong class="command">ip_addr</strong></span>, which can be an IPv4 or IPv6
address. An <span><strong class="command">ip_addr</strong></span> of <code class="literal">*</code> (asterisk) is
interpreted as the IPv4 wildcard address; connections will be
accepted on any of the system's IPv4 addresses.
To listen on the IPv6 wildcard address,
use an <span><strong class="command">ip_addr</strong></span> of <code class="literal">::</code>.
</p>
<p>
If no port is specified, port 80 is used for HTTP channels.
The asterisk "<code class="literal">*</code>" cannot be used for
<span><strong class="command">ip_port</strong></span>.
</p>
<p>
The attempt of opening a statistics channel is
restricted by the optional <span><strong class="command">allow</strong></span> clause.
Connections to the statistics channel are permitted based on the
<span><strong class="command">address_match_list</strong></span>.
If no <span><strong class="command">allow</strong></span> clause is present,
<span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> accepts connection
attempts from any address; since the statistics may
contain sensitive internal information, it is highly
recommended to restrict the source of connection requests
appropriately.
</p>
<p>
If no <span><strong class="command">statistics-channels</strong></span> statement is present,
<span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> will not open any communication channels.

and Usage</h3></div></div></div>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">trusted-keys</strong></span> statement defines
DNSSEC security roots. DNSSEC is described in <a href="Bv9ARM.ch04.html#DNSSEC" title="DNSSEC">the section called “DNSSEC”</a>. A security root is defined when the
public key for a non-authoritative zone is known, but
cannot be securely obtained through DNS, either because
it is the DNS root zone or because its parent zone is
unsigned. Once a key has been configured as a trusted
key, it is treated as if it had been validated and
proven secure. The resolver attempts DNSSEC validation
on all DNS data in subdomains of a security root.
</p>
<p>
All keys (and corresponding zones) listed in
<span><strong class="command">trusted-keys</strong></span> are deemed to exist regardless
of what parent zones say. Similarly for all keys listed in
<span><strong class="command">trusted-keys</strong></span> only those keys are
used to validate the DNSKEY RRset. The parent's DS RRset
will not be used.
</p>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">trusted-keys</strong></span> statement can contain
multiple key entries, each consisting of the key's
domain name, flags, protocol, algorithm, and the Base-64
representation of the key data.
Spaces, tabs, newlines and carriage returns are ignored
in the key data, so the configuration may be split up into
multiple lines.

<a name="id2587195"></a><span><strong class="command">view</strong></span> Statement Definition and Usage</h3></div></div></div>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">view</strong></span> statement is a powerful
feature
of <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> 9 that lets a name server
answer a DNS query differently
depending on who is asking. It is particularly useful for
implementing
split DNS setups without having to run multiple servers.
</p>
<p>
Each <span><strong class="command">view</strong></span> statement defines a view
of the
DNS namespace that will be seen by a subset of clients. A client
matches
a view if its source IP address matches the
<code class="varname">address_match_list</code> of the view's
<span><strong class="command">match-clients</strong></span> clause and its
destination IP address matches
the <code class="varname">address_match_list</code> of the
view's
<span><strong class="command">match-destinations</strong></span> clause. If not
specified, both
<span><strong class="command">match-clients</strong></span> and <span><strong class="command">match-destinations</strong></span>
default to matching all addresses. In addition to checking IP
addresses
<span><strong class="command">match-clients</strong></span> and <span><strong class="command">match-destinations</strong></span>
can also take <span><strong class="command">keys</strong></span> which provide an
mechanism for the
client to select the view. A view can also be specified
as <span><strong class="command">match-recursive-only</strong></span>, which
means that only recursive
requests from matching clients will match that view.
The order of the <span><strong class="command">view</strong></span> statements is
significant —
a client request will be resolved in the context of the first
<span><strong class="command">view</strong></span> that it matches.
</p>
<p>
Zones defined within a <span><strong class="command">view</strong></span>
statement will
only be accessible to clients that match the <span><strong class="command">view</strong></span>.
By defining a zone of the same name in multiple views, different
zone data can be given to different clients, for example,
"internal"
and "external" clients in a split DNS setup.
</p>
<p>
Many of the options given in the <span><strong class="command">options</strong></span> statement
can also be used within a <span><strong class="command">view</strong></span>
statement, and then
apply only when resolving queries with that view. When no
view-specific
value is given, the value in the <span><strong class="command">options</strong></span> statement
is used as a default. Also, zone options can have default values
specified
in the <span><strong class="command">view</strong></span> statement; these
view-specific defaults
take precedence over those in the <span><strong class="command">options</strong></span> statement.
</p>
<p>
Views are class specific. If no class is given, class IN
is assumed. Note that all non-IN views must contain a hint zone,
since only the IN class has compiled-in default hints.
</p>
<p>
If there are no <span><strong class="command">view</strong></span> statements in
the config
file, a default view that matches any client is automatically
created
in class IN. Any <span><strong class="command">zone</strong></span> statements
specified on
the top level of the configuration file are considered to be part
of
this default view, and the <span><strong class="command">options</strong></span>
statement will
apply to the default view. If any explicit <span><strong class="command">view</strong></span>
statements are present, all <span><strong class="command">zone</strong></span>
statements must
occur inside <span><strong class="command">view</strong></span> statements.
</p>
<p>
Here is an example of a typical split DNS setup implemented
using <span><strong class="command">view</strong></span> statements:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">view "internal" {
// This should match our internal networks.
match-clients { 10.0.0.0/8; };
// Provide recursive service to internal clients only.
recursion yes;
// Provide a complete view of the example.com zone
// including addresses of internal hosts.
zone "example.com" {
type master;
file "example-internal.db";
};
};
view "external" {
// Match all clients not matched by the previous view.
match-clients { any; };
// Refuse recursive service to external clients.
recursion no;
// Provide a restricted view of the example.com zone
// containing only publicly accessible hosts.
zone "example.com" {
type master;
file "example-external.db";
};
};

be changed for all servers by specifying a port number
before the
list of IP addresses, or on a per-server basis after
the IP address.
Authentication to the master can also be done with
per-server TSIG keys.
If a file is specified, then the
replica will be written to this file whenever the zone
is changed,
and reloaded from this file on a server restart. Use
of a file is
recommended, since it often speeds server startup and
eliminates
a needless waste of bandwidth. Note that for large
numbers (in the
tens or hundreds of thousands) of zones per server, it
is best to
use a two-level naming scheme for zone filenames. For
example,
a slave server for the zone <code class="literal">example.com</code> might place
the zone contents into a file called
<code class="filename">ex/example.com</code> where <code class="filename">ex/</code> is
just the first two letters of the zone name. (Most
operating systems
behave very slowly if you put 100000 files into
a single directory.)

<code class="varname">stub</code>
</p>
</td>

<p>
A stub zone is similar to a slave zone,
except that it replicates only the NS records of a
master zone instead
of the entire zone. Stub zones are not a standard part
of the DNS;
they are a feature specific to the <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> implementation.
</p>
<p>
Stub zones can be used to eliminate the need for glue
NS record
in a parent zone at the expense of maintaining a stub
zone entry and
a set of name server addresses in <code class="filename">named.conf</code>.
This usage is not recommended for new configurations,
and BIND 9
supports it only in a limited way.
In <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> 4/8, zone
transfers of a parent zone
included the NS records from stub children of that
zone. This meant
that, in some cases, users could get away with
configuring child stubs
only in the master server for the parent zone. <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym>
9 never mixes together zone data from different zones
in this
way. Therefore, if a <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> 9 master serving a parent
zone has child stub zones configured, all the slave
servers for the
parent zone also need to have the same child stub
zones
configured.
</p>
<p>
Stub zones can also be used as a way of forcing the
resolution
of a given domain to use a particular set of
authoritative servers.
For example, the caching name servers on a private
network using
RFC1918 addressing may be configured with stub zones
for
<code class="literal">10.in-addr.arpa</code>
to use a set of internal name servers as the
authoritative
servers for that domain.

<p>
A "forward zone" is a way to configure
forwarding on a per-domain basis. A <span><strong class="command">zone</strong></span> statement
of type <span><strong class="command">forward</strong></span> can
contain a <span><strong class="command">forward</strong></span>
and/or <span><strong class="command">forwarders</strong></span>
statement,
which will apply to queries within the domain given by
the zone
name. If no <span><strong class="command">forwarders</strong></span>
statement is present or
an empty list for <span><strong class="command">forwarders</strong></span> is given, then no
forwarding will be done for the domain, canceling the
effects of
any forwarders in the <span><strong class="command">options</strong></span> statement. Thus
if you want to use this type of zone to change the
behavior of the
global <span><strong class="command">forward</strong></span> option
(that is, "forward first"
to, then "forward only", or vice versa, but want to
use the same
servers as set globally) you need to re-specify the
global forwarders.

<code class="varname">hint</code>

<p>
The initial set of root name servers is
specified using a "hint zone". When the server starts
up, it uses
the root hints to find a root name server and get the
most recent
list of root name servers. If no hint zone is
specified for class
IN, the server uses a compiled-in default set of root
servers hints.
Classes other than IN have no built-in defaults hints.

<p>
This is used to enforce the delegation-only
status of infrastructure zones (e.g. COM,
NET, ORG). Any answer that is received
without an explicit or implicit delegation
in the authority section will be treated
as NXDOMAIN. This does not apply to the
zone apex. This should not be applied to
leaf zones.

<a name="dynamic_update_policies"></a>Dynamic Update Policies</h4></div></div></div>
<p><acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> 9 supports two alternative
methods of granting clients the right to perform
dynamic updates to a zone, configured by the
<span><strong class="command">allow-update</strong></span> and
<span><strong class="command">update-policy</strong></span> option, respectively.
</p>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">allow-update</strong></span> clause works the
same way as in previous versions of <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym>.
It grants given clients the permission to update any
record of any name in the zone.
</p>
<p>
The <span><strong class="command">update-policy</strong></span> clause is new
in <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> 9 and allows more fine-grained
control over what updates are allowed. A set of rules
is specified, where each rule either grants or denies
permissions for one or more names to be updated by
one or more identities. If the dynamic update request
message is signed (that is, it includes either a TSIG
or SIG(0) record), the identity of the signer can be
determined.
</p>
<p>
Rules are specified in the <span><strong class="command">update-policy</strong></span>
zone option, and are only meaningful for master zones.
When the <span><strong class="command">update-policy</strong></span> statement
is present, it is a configuration error for the
<span><strong class="command">allow-update</strong></span> statement to be
present. The <span><strong class="command">update-policy</strong></span> statement
only examines the signer of a message; the source
address is not relevant.
</p>
<p>
This is how a rule definition looks:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">
( <span><strong class="command">grant</strong></span> | <span><strong class="command">deny</strong></span> ) <em class="replaceable"><code>identity</code></em> <em class="replaceable"><code>nametype</code></em> <em class="replaceable"><code>name</code></em> [<span class="optional"> <em class="replaceable"><code>types</code></em> </span>]
</pre>
<p>
Each rule grants or denies privileges. Once a message has
successfully matched a rule, the operation is immediately
granted
or denied and no further rules are examined. A rule is matched
when the signer matches the identity field, the name matches the
name field in accordance with the nametype field, and the type
matches
the types specified in the type field.
</p>
<p>
No signer is required for <em class="replaceable"><code>tcp-self</code></em>
or <em class="replaceable"><code>6to4-self</code></em> however the standard
reverse mapping / prefix conversion must match the identity
field.
</p>
<p>
The identity field specifies a name or a wildcard
name. Normally, this is the name of the TSIG or
SIG(0) key used to sign the update request. When a
TKEY exchange has been used to create a shared secret,
the identity of the shared secret is the same as the
identity of the key used to authenticate the TKEY
exchange. TKEY is also the negotiation method used
by GSS-TSIG, which establishes an identity that is
the Kerberos principal of the client, such as
<strong class="userinput"><code>"user@host.domain"</code></strong>. When the
<em class="replaceable"><code>identity</code></em> field specifies
a wildcard name, it is subject to DNS wildcard
expansion, so the rule will apply to multiple identities.
The <em class="replaceable"><code>identity</code></em> field must
contain a fully-qualified domain name.
</p>
<p>
The <em class="replaceable"><code>nametype</code></em> field has 12
values:
<code class="varname">name</code>, <code class="varname">subdomain</code>,
<code class="varname">wildcard</code>, <code class="varname">self</code>,
<code class="varname">selfsub</code>, <code class="varname">selfwild</code>,

<p>
This section, largely borrowed from RFC 1034, describes the
concept of a Resource Record (RR) and explains when each is used.
Since the publication of RFC 1034, several new RRs have been
identified
and implemented in the DNS. These are also included.
</p>
<div class="sect3" lang="en">
<div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title">
<a name="id2591234"></a>Resource Records</h4></div></div></div>
<p>
A domain name identifies a node. Each node has a set of
resource information, which may be empty. The set of resource
information associated with a particular name is composed of
separate RRs. The order of RRs in a set is not significant and
need not be preserved by name servers, resolvers, or other
parts of the DNS. However, sorting of multiple RRs is
permitted for optimization purposes, for example, to specify
that a particular nearby server be tried first. See <a href="Bv9ARM.ch06.html#the_sortlist_statement" title="The sortlist Statement">the section called “The <span><strong class="command">sortlist</strong></span> Statement”</a> and <a href="Bv9ARM.ch06.html#rrset_ordering" title="RRset Ordering">the section called “RRset Ordering”</a>.

<p>
The owner name is often implicit, rather than forming an
integral
part of the RR. For example, many name servers internally form
tree
or hash structures for the name space, and chain RRs off nodes.
The remaining RR parts are the fixed header (type, class, TTL)
which is consistent for all RRs, and a variable part (RDATA)
that
fits the needs of the resource being described.
</p>
<p>
The meaning of the TTL field is a time limit on how long an
RR can be kept in a cache. This limit does not apply to
authoritative
data in zones; it is also timed out, but by the refreshing
policies
for the zone. The TTL is assigned by the administrator for the
zone where the data originates. While short TTLs can be used to
minimize caching, and a zero TTL prohibits caching, the
realities
of Internet performance suggest that these times should be on
the
order of days for the typical host. If a change can be
anticipated,
the TTL can be reduced prior to the change to minimize
inconsistency
during the change, and then increased back to its former value
following
the change.
</p>
<p>
The data in the RDATA section of RRs is carried as a combination
of binary strings and domain names. The domain names are
frequently
used as "pointers" to other data in the DNS.

<div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title">
<a name="id2592857"></a>Textual expression of RRs</h4></div></div></div>
<p>
RRs are represented in binary form in the packets of the DNS
protocol, and are usually represented in highly encoded form
when
stored in a name server or resolver. In the examples provided
in
RFC 1034, a style similar to that used in master files was
employed
in order to show the contents of RRs. In this format, most RRs
are shown on a single line, although continuation lines are
possible
using parentheses.
</p>
<p>
The start of the line gives the owner of the RR. If a line
begins with a blank, then the owner is assumed to be the same as
that of the previous RR. Blank lines are often included for
readability.
</p>
<p>
Following the owner, we list the TTL, type, and class of the
RR. Class and type use the mnemonics defined above, and TTL is
an integer before the type field. In order to avoid ambiguity
in
parsing, type and class mnemonics are disjoint, TTLs are
integers,
and the type mnemonic is always last. The IN class and TTL
values
are often omitted from examples in the interests of clarity.
</p>
<p>
The resource data or RDATA section of the RR are given using
knowledge of the typical representation for the data.

For example, we might show the RRs carried in a message as:

<p>
As described above, domain servers store information as a
series of resource records, each of which contains a particular
piece of information about a given domain name (which is usually,
but not always, a host). The simplest way to think of a RR is as
a typed pair of data, a domain name matched with a relevant datum,
and stored with some additional type information to help systems
determine when the RR is relevant.
</p>
<p>
MX records are used to control delivery of email. The data
specified in the record is a priority and a domain name. The
priority
controls the order in which email delivery is attempted, with the
lowest number first. If two priorities are the same, a server is
chosen randomly. If no servers at a given priority are responding,
the mail transport agent will fall back to the next largest
priority.
Priority numbers do not have any absolute meaning — they are
relevant
only respective to other MX records for that domain name. The
domain
name given is the machine to which the mail will be delivered.
It <span class="emphasis"><em>must</em></span> have an associated address record
(A or AAAA) — CNAME is not sufficient.
</p>
<p>
For a given domain, if there is both a CNAME record and an
MX record, the MX record is in error, and will be ignored.
Instead,
the mail will be delivered to the server specified in the MX
record
pointed to by the CNAME.

Reverse name resolution (that is, translation from IP address
to name) is achieved by means of the <span class="emphasis"><em>in-addr.arpa</em></span> domain
and PTR records. Entries in the in-addr.arpa domain are made in
least-to-most significant order, read left to right. This is the
opposite order to the way IP addresses are usually written. Thus,
a machine with an IP address of 10.1.2.3 would have a
corresponding
in-addr.arpa name of
3.2.1.10.in-addr.arpa. This name should have a PTR resource record
whose data field is the name of the machine or, optionally,
multiple
PTR records if the machine has more than one name. For example,
in the [<span class="optional">example.com</span>] domain:

BIND 8 does not support the optional TTL and CLASS fields.

<div class="sect2" lang="en">
<div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title">
<a name="zonefile_format"></a>Additional File Formats</h3></div></div></div>
<p>
In addition to the standard textual format, BIND 9
supports the ability to read or dump to zone files in
other formats. The <code class="constant">raw</code> format is
currently available as an additional format. It is a
binary format representing BIND 9's internal data
structure directly, thereby remarkably improving the
loading time.
</p>
<p>
For a primary server, a zone file in the
<code class="constant">raw</code> format is expected to be
generated from a textual zone file by the
<span><strong class="command">named-compilezone</strong></span> command. For a
secondary server or for a dynamic zone, it is automatically
generated (if this format is specified by the
<span><strong class="command">masterfile-format</strong></span> option) when
<span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> dumps the zone contents after
zone transfer or when applying prior updates.
</p>
<p>
If a zone file in a binary format needs manual modification,
it first must be converted to a textual form by the
<span><strong class="command">named-compilezone</strong></span> command. All
necessary modification should go to the text file, which
should then be converted to the binary form by the
<span><strong class="command">named-compilezone</strong></span> command again.
</p>
<p>
Although the <code class="constant">raw</code> format uses the
network byte order and avoids architecture-dependent
data alignment so that it is as much portable as
possible, it is primarily expected to be used inside
the same single system. In order to export a zone
file in the <code class="constant">raw</code> format or make a
portable backup of the file, it is recommended to
convert the file to the standard textual representation.

The number in parentheses is a standard
