|
resperf-report for generating a resperf report in HTML with
|
|
gnuplot graphs, and queryparse to extract DNS queries from
|
|
pcap capture files. This software is not installed by default
|
|
with BIND.

On machines with 2 or more processors (CPU), the default value

Zone transfers now use smaller message sizes to improve

Authoritative servers that were marked as bogus (e.g. blackholed

anyway. [RT #41321]

<li class="listitem"><p>
|
|
Some of the options for GeoIP ACLs, including "areacode",
|
|
"metrocode", and "timezone", were incorrectly documented
|
|
as "area", "metro" and "tz". Both the long and abbreviated
|
|
versions are now accepted.

|

<li class="listitem"><p>
|
|
Zones configured to use <span class="command"><strong>map</strong></span> format
|
|
master files can't be used as policy zones because RPZ
|
|
summary data isn't compiled when such zones are mapped into
|
|
memory. This limitation may be fixed in a future release,
|
|
but in the meantime it has been documented, and attempting
|
|
to use such zones in <span class="command"><strong>response-policy</strong></span>
|
|
statements is now a configuration error. [RT #38321]
