Use the new role :iscman: to replace all occurences or ``binary``
with :iscman:`binary`, creating a hyperlink to the manual page.
Generated using:
find bin -name *.rst | xargs fgrep --files-with-matches '.. iscman' | xargs -I{} -n1 basename {} .rst > /tmp/progs
for PROG in $(cat /tmp/progs); do find -name '*.rst' | xargs sed -i -e "s/\`\`$PROG\`\`/:iscman:\`$PROG\`/g"; done
Additional hand-edits were done mainly around filter-aaaa and
filter-a which are program names and and option names at the
same time. Couple more edits was neede to fix .rst syntax broken by
automatic replacement.

Description
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
:program:`filter-a.so` is a query plugin module for :iscman:`named`, enabling
|
|
:iscman:`named` to omit some IPv4 addresses when responding to clients.
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
plugin query "filter-a.so" {
|
|
filter-a-on-v6 yes;
|
|
filter-a-on-v4 yes;
|
|
filter-a { 192.0.2.1; 2001:db8:2::1; };
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
This module is intended to aid transition from IPv4 to IPv6 by
|
|
withholding IPv4 addresses from DNS clients which are not connected to
|
|
the IPv4 Internet, when the name being looked up has an IPv6 address
|
|
available. Use of this module is not recommended unless absolutely
|
|
necessary.
|
|
|
|
Note: This mechanism can erroneously cause other servers not to give
|
|
A records to their clients. If a recursing server with both IPv6 and
|
|
IPv4 network connections queries an authoritative server using this
|
|
mechanism via IPv6, it is denied A records even if its client is
|
|
using IPv4.
|
|
|
|
Options
|
|
~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
``filter-a``
|
|
This option specifies a list of client addresses for which A filtering is to
|
|
be applied. The default is ``any``.
|
|
|
|
``filter-a-on-v6``
|
|
If set to ``yes``, this option indicates that the DNS client is at an IPv6 address, in
|
|
``filter-a``. If the response does not include DNSSEC
|
|
signatures, then all A records are deleted from the response. This
|
|
filtering applies to all responses, not only authoritative
|
|
ones.
|
|
|
|
If set to ``break-dnssec``, then A records are deleted even when
|
|
DNSSEC is enabled. As suggested by the name, this causes the response
|
|
to fail to verify, because the DNSSEC protocol is designed to detect
|
|
deletions.
|
|
|
|
This mechanism can erroneously cause other servers not to give A
|
|
records to their clients. If a recursing server with both IPv6 and IPv4
|
|
network connections queries an authoritative server using this
|
|
mechanism via IPv6, it is denied A records even if its client is
|
|
using IPv4.
|
|
|
|
``filter-a-on-v4``
|
|
This option is identical to ``filter-a-on-v6``, except that it filters A responses
|
|
to queries from IPv4 clients instead of IPv6 clients. To filter all
|
|
responses, set both options to ``yes``.
