1.1. Unimplemented Options and Changed Defaults
BIND 9.0.0 supports most, but not all but not of the named.conf
options of BIND 8. Unimplemented options include those for selective
(per-domain) forwarding, sortlists, statistics, and process limits;
for a complete list, see doc/misc/options. We plan to implement most
of these in in BIND 9.1.

3. Interoperability Impact of New Protocol Features
BIND 9 uses EDNS0 (RFC2671) to advertise its receive buffer size. It
also sets the AD bit in queries to indicate that it wishes to receive
DNSSEC responses (this usage of the AD bit is not yet standard, but
hopefully it will be soon).
also sets an EDNS flag bit in queries to indicate that it wishes to
receive DNSSEC responses; this flag bit usage is not yet standardized,
but we hope it will be.
Most older servers that do not support EDNS0 and/or DNSSEC, including
all known versions of BIND, will send a FORMERR or NOTIMP response to
these queries. When this happens, BIND 9 will automatically retry the
query without EDNS0 and AD.
Most older servers that do not support EDNS0, including prior versions
of BIND, will send a FORMERR or NOTIMP response to these queries.
When this happens, BIND 9 will automatically retry the query without

Unfortunately, there exists at least one non-BIND name server
implementation that silently ignores these queries instead of sending
an error response. Resolving names in zones where all or most
authoritative servers use this server will be very slow or fail
completely. We have contacted the manufacturer of the name server in
case and are trying to resolve the issue with them.
