3741. [func] "delve" (domain entity lookup and validation engine):
A new tool with dig-like semantics for performing DNS
lookups, with internal DNSSEC validation, using the
same resolver and validator logic as named. This
allows easy validation of DNSSEC data in environments
with untrustworthy resolvers, and assists with
troubleshooting of DNSSEC problems. (Note: not yet
available on win32.) [RT #32406]
information will be automatically updated if the
OS supports routing sockets. Use
"automatic-interface-scan no;" to disable.
Add "rndc scan" to trigger a scan. [RT #23027]
3731. [func] Added a "no-case-compress" ACL, which causes
named to use case-insensitive compression
(disabling change #3645) for specified
clients. (This is useful when dealing
with broken client implementations that
use case-sensitive name comparisons,
rejecting responses that fail to match the
capitalization of the query that was sent.)
[RT #35300]
3705. [func] "configure --enable-native-pkcs11" enables BIND
to use the PKCS#11 API for all cryptographic
functions, so that it can drive a hardware service
module directly without the need to use a modified
OpenSSL as intermediary (so long as the HSM's vendor
provides a complete-enough implementation of the
PKCS#11 interface). This has been tested successfully
with the Thales nShield HSM and with SoftHSMv2 from
the OpenDNSSEC project. [RT #29031]
3700. [func] Allow access to subgroups of XML statistics via
special URLs http://<server>:<port>/xml/v3/server,
/zones, /net, /tasks, /mem, and /status. [RT #35115]
3699. [bug] Improvements to statistics channel XSL stylesheet:
the stylesheet can now be cached by the browser;
section headers are omitted from the stats display
when there is no data in those sections to be
displayed; counters are now right-justified for
easier readability. [RT #35117]
3620. [func] Added "rpz-client-ip" policy triggers, enabling
RPZ responses to be configured on the basis of
the client IP address; this can be used, for
example, to blacklist misbehaving recursive
or stub resolvers. [RT #33605]
3619. [bug] Fixed a bug in RPZ with "recursive-only no;"
[RT #33776]
Updated CHANGES note:
3606. [func] "rndc flushtree" now flushes matching
records in the address database and bad cache
as well as the DNS cache. (Previously only the
DNS cache was flushed.) [RT #33970]
3606. [func] "rndc flushtree -all" flushes matching
records in the ADB and bad cache as well as
the DNS cache. (Without the "-all" option,
flushtree will still only flush records from
the DNS cache.) [RT #33970]
3535. [func] Add support for setting Differentiated Services Code
Point (DSCP) values in named. Most configuration
options which take a "port" option (e.g.,
listen-on, forwarders, also-notify, masters,
notify-source, etc) can now also take a "dscp"
option specifying a code point for use with
outgoing traffic, if supported by the underlying
OS. [RT #27596]
