4380. [experimental] Added a "zone-directory" option to "catalog-zones"
syntax, allowing local masterfiles for slaves
that are provisioned by catalog zones to be stored
in a directory other than the server's working
directory. [RT #42527]
provisioning secondary servers in which a list of
zones to be served is stored in a DNS zone and can
be propagated to slaves via AXFR/IXFR. [RT #41581]
4375. [func] Add support for automatic reallocation of isc_buffer
to isc_buffer_put* functions. [RT #42394]
4371. [func] New "minimal-any" option reduces the size of UDP
responses for qtype ANY by returning a single
arbitrarily selected RRset instead of all RRsets.
Thanks to Tony Finch. [RT #41615]
records with an incorrect class to be be accepted,
triggering a REQUIRE failure when those records
were subsequently cached. (CVE-2015-8000) [RT #4098]
4235. [func] Added support in named for "dnstap", a fast method of
capturing and logging DNS traffic, and a new command
"dnstap-read" to read a dnstap log file. Use
"configure --enable-dnstap" to enable this
feature (note that this requires libprotobuf-c
and libfstrm). See the ARM for configuration details.
Thanks to Robert Edmonds of Farsight Security.
[RT #40211]
4224. [func] Added support for "dyndb", a new interface for loading
zone data from an external database, developed by
Red Hat for the FreeIPA project.
DynDB drivers fully implement the BIND database
API, and are capable of significantly better
performance and functionality than DLZ drivers,
while taking advantage of advanced database
features not available in BIND such as multi-master
replication.
Thanks to Adam Tkac and Petr Spacek of Red Hat.
[RT #35271]
4152. [func] Implement DNS COOKIE option. This replaces the
experimental SIT option of BIND 9.10. The following
named.conf directives are available: send-cookie,
cookie-secret, cookie-algorithm, nocookie-udp-size
and require-server-cookie. The following dig options
are available: +[no]cookie[=value] and +[no]badcookie.
