dynamic DNS. 'auto-dnssec allow;' permits a zone
to be signed by creating keys for it in the

'auto-dnssec maintain;' allows that too, plus it
also keeps the zone's DNSSEC keys up to date
according to their timing metadata. [RT #19943]

defines to enable. We now no longer overload the

adding defines at compile time to BIND 9.6 you should

causes named to generate a TSIG session key

Note: The trusted key is hard-coded into named,
but is also stored in (and can be overridden
by) $sysconfdir/bind.keys. As the ISC DLV key
rolls over it can be kept up to date by replacing
the bind.keys file with a key downloaded from
