-The Berkeley Internet Name Daemon, an implementation of DNS.
+BIND version 9 is a major rewrite of nearly all aspects of the underlying
+BIND architecture. Some of the important features of BIND 9 are:
-BIND 8 Features
- -> DNS Dynamic Updates (RFC 2136)
- -> DNS Change Notification (RFC 1996)
- -> Completely new configuration syntax
- -> Flexible, categorized logging system
- -> IP-address-based access control for queries, zone transfers, and
- updates that may be specified on a zone-by-zone basis
- -> More efficient zone transfers
- -> Improved performance for servers with thousands of zones
- -> The server no longer forks for outbound zone transfers
- -> Many bug fixes
+DNS Security
+ DNSSEC (signed zones)
+ TSIG (signed DNS requests)
+IP version 6
+ Answers DNS queries on IPv6 sockets
+ IPv6 resource records (A6, DNAME, etc.)
+ Bitstring Labels
+ Experimental IPv6 Resolver Library
+DNS Protocol Enhancements
+ IXFR, DDNS, Notify, EDNS0
+ Improved standards conformance
+Views
+ One server process can provide multiple "views" of
+ the DNS namespace, e.g. an "inside" view to certain
+ clients, and an "outside" view to others.
+Multiprocessor Support
+Improved Portability Architecture
