+Statements by Tag
+-----------------
+
+BIND 9 supports many hundreds of statements. Finding the right statement to
+control a specific behavior or solve a particular problem can be a daunting
+task. To simplify the task all statements have been assigned one or more tags.
+Tags are designed to group together statements that have broadly similar
+functionality, thus all statements that control handling of queries or of zone
+transfers are respectively tagged under **query** and **transfer**.
