to be fully automated in zones configured for
dynamic DNS. 'auto-dnssec allow;' permits a zone
to be signed by creating keys for it in the
key-directory and using 'rndc sign <zone>'.
'auto-dnssec maintain;' allows that too, plus it
also keeps the zone's DNSSEC keys up to date
according to their timing metadata. [RT #19943]
update are now fully supported and no longer require
defines to enable. We now no longer overload the
NSEC3PARAM flag field, nor the NSEC OPT bit at the
apex. Secure to insecure changes are controlled by
by the named.conf option 'secure-to-insecure'.
Warning: If you had previously enabled support by
adding defines at compile time to BIND 9.6 you should
ensure that all changes that are in progress have
completed prior to upgrading to BIND 9.7. BIND 9.7
is not backwards compatible.
dnssec-* tools. Major changes:
- all dnssec-* tools now take a -K option to
specify a directory in which key files will be
stored
- DNSSEC can now store metadata indicating when
they are scheduled to be published, acttivated,
revoked or removed; these values can be set by
dnssec-keygen or overwritten by the new
dnssec-settime command
- dnssec-signzone -S (for "smart") option reads key
metadata and uses it to determine automatically
which keys to publish to the zone, use for
signing, revoke, or remove from the zone
