|

ICANN is in the process of introducing a new Key Signing Key (KSK) for
|
|
the global root zone. BIND has multiple methods for managing DNSSEC
|
|
trust anchors, with somewhat different behaviors. If the root
|
|
key is configured using the <command>managed-keys</command>
|
|
statement, or if the pre-configured root key is enabled by using
|
|
<command>dnssec-validation auto</command>, then BIND can keep
|
|
keys up to date automatically. Servers configured in this way
|
|
will roll seamlessly to the new key when it is published in
|
|
the root zone. However, keys configured using the
|
|
<command>trusted-keys</command> statement are not automatically
|
|
maintained. If your server is performing DNSSEC validation
|
|
and is configured using <command>trusted-keys</command>, you are
|
|
advised to change your configuration before the root zone begins
|
|
signing with the new KSK. This is currently scheduled for
|
|
October 11, 2017.

Threads in <command>named</command> are now set to human-readable
|
|
names to assist debugging on operating systems that support that.
|
|
Threads will have names such as "isc-timer", "isc-sockmgr",
|
|
"isc-worker0001", and so on. This will affect the reporting of
|
|
subsidiary thread names in <command>ps</command> and
|
|
<command>top</command>, but not the main thread. [RT #43234]
