<H3>Overview</H3>
|
|
|
|
<P>BIND 8 is much more configurable than previous release of BIND.
|
|
There are entirely new areas of configuration, such as access control lists
|
|
and categorized logging. Many options that previously applied to all zones
|
|
can now be used selectively. These features, plus a consideration of future
|
|
configuration needs led to the creation of a new configuration file format.
|
|
|
|
<H3>The Configuration File</H3>
|
|
|
|
<H4><A HREF="example.html">Example Configuration</A></H4>
|
|
|
|
<H4>Statements</H4>
|
|
|
|
<P>A BIND 8 configuration consists of statements and comments.
|
|
Statements end with a semicolon. Many statements contain a block of
|
|
substatements, which are also terminated with a semicolon.</P>
|
|
|
|
<P>The following statements are supported:
|
|
<DL>
|
|
<DT><CODE><A HREF="acl.html">acl</A></CODE>
|
|
<DD>
|
|
defines a named IP address matching list, for access control and other uses
|
|
|
|
<DT><CODE><A HREF="include.html">include</A></CODE>
|
|
<DD>
|
|
includes a file
|
|
|
|
<DT><CODE><A HREF="key.html">key</A></CODE>
|
|
<DD>
|
|
specifies key information for use in authentication and authorization
|
|
|
|
<DT><CODE><A HREF="logging.html">logging</A></CODE>
|
|
<DD>
|
|
specifies what the server logs, and where the log messages are sent
|
|
|
|
<DT><CODE><A HREF="options.html">options</A></CODE>
|
|
<DD>
|
|
controls global server configuration options and sets defaults for other
|
|
statements
|
|
|
|
<DT><CODE><A HREF="controls.html">controls</A></CODE>
|
|
<DD>
|
|
declares control channels to be used by the <VAR>ndc</VAR> utility
|
|
|
|
<DT><CODE><A HREF="server.html">server</A></CODE>
|
|
<DD>
|
|
sets certain configuration options on a per-server basis
|
|
|
|
<DT><CODE><A HREF="trusted-keys.html">trusted-keys</A></CODE>
|
|
<DD>
|
|
defines DNSSEC keys that are preconfigured into the server and implicitly
|
|
trusted
|
|
|
|
<DT><CODE><A HREF="zone.html">zone</A></CODE>
|
|
<DD>
|
|
defines a zone
|
|
</DL>
|
|
|
|
<P>The <CODE>logging</CODE> and <CODE>options</CODE> statements may only
|
|
occur once per configuration.
|
|
|
|
<H4>Comments</HR>
|
|
|
|
The BIND 8 <A HREF="comments.html">comment syntax</A> allows for
|
|
comments to appear anywhere that whitespace may appear in a BIND
|
|
configuration file. To appeal to programmers of all kinds, they can
|
|
be written in C, C++, or shell/perl constructs.
|
|
|
|
<H3>Converting from BIND 4.9.x</H3>
|
|
|
|
<P>BIND 4.9.x configuration files can be converted to the new format
|
|
by using <CODE>src/bin/named/named-bootconf.pl</CODE>, a perl script that
|
|
is part of the BIND 8.1 source kit.
