-BIND version 9 is a major rewrite of nearly all aspects of the underlying BIND
-architecture. Some of the important features of BIND 9 are:
-
-DNS Security: DNSSEC (signed zones), TSIG (signed DNS requests)
-IP version 6: Answers DNS queries on IPv6 sockets, IPv6 resource records (AAAA)
- Experimental IPv6 Resolver Library
-DNS Protocol Enhancements: IXFR, DDNS, Notify, EDNS0
- Improved standards conformance
-Views: One server process can provide multiple "views" of the DNS namespace,
- e.g. an "inside" view to certain clients, and an "outside" view to others.
-Multiprocessor Support, including working threads in this version
-
-BIND 9.5 has a number of new features over previous versions, including:
-GSS-TSIG support (RFC 3645), DHCID support
-Experimental http server and statistics support for named via xml
-More detailed statistics counters, compatible with the ones supported in BIND 8
-Faster ACL processing
-Efficient LRU cache cleaning mechanism.
