|

<p>
|
|
With the release of BIND 9.11.0, ISC changed to the open
|
|
source license for BIND from the ISC license to the Mozilla
|
|
Public License (MPL 2.0).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The MPL-2.0 license requires that if you make changes to
|
|
licensed software (e.g. BIND) and distribute them outside
|
|
your organization, that you publish those changes under that
|
|
same license. It does not require that you publish or disclose
|
|
anything other than the changes you made to our software.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
This requirement will not affect anyone who is using BIND, with
|
|
or without modifications, without redistributing it, nor anyone
|
|
redistributing it without changes. Therefore, this change will be
|
|
without consequence for most individuals and organizations who are
|
|
using BIND.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Those unsure whether or not the license change affects their
|
|
use of BIND, or who wish to discuss how to comply with the
|
|
license may contact ISC at <a class="link" href="https://www.isc.org/mission/contact/" target="_top">
|
|
https://www.isc.org/mission/contact/</a>.

A race condition could trigger an assertion failure when

a large number of incoming packets were being rejected.

The new GeoIP2 API from MaxMind is now supported when BIND
|
|
is compiled using <span class="command"><strong>configure --with-geoip2</strong></span>.
|
|
The legacy GeoIP API can be used by compiling with
|
|
<span class="command"><strong>configure --with-geoip</strong></span> instead. (Note that
|
|
the databases for the legacy API are no longer maintained by
|
|
MaxMind.)
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The default path to the GeoIP2 databases will be set based
|
|
on the location of the <span class="command"><strong>libmaxminddb</strong></span> library;
|
|
for example, if it is in <code class="filename">/usr/local/lib</code>,
|
|
then the default path will be
|
|
<code class="filename">/usr/local/share/GeoIP</code>.
|
|
This value can be overridden in <code class="filename">named.conf</code>
|
|
using the <span class="command"><strong>geoip-directory</strong></span> option.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Some <span class="command"><strong>geoip</strong></span> ACL settings that were available with
|
|
legacy GeoIP, including searches for <span class="command"><strong>netspeed</strong></span>,
|
|
<span class="command"><strong>org</strong></span>, and three-letter ISO country codes, will
|
|
no longer work when using GeoIP2. Supported GeoIP2 database
|
|
types are <span class="command"><strong>country</strong></span>, <span class="command"><strong>city</strong></span>,
|
|
<span class="command"><strong>domain</strong></span>, <span class="command"><strong>isp</strong></span>, and
|
|
<span class="command"><strong>as</strong></span>. All of the databases support both IPv4
|
|
and IPv6 lookups. [GL #182]
