3745. [func] "configure --with-tuning=large" adjusts various
compiled-in constants and default settings to
values suited to large servers with abundant
memory. [RT #29538]
(which are similar to DNS Cookies by Donald Eastlake)
and are designed to help clients detect off path
spoofed responses and for servers to detect legitimate
clients.
SIT use a experimental EDNS option code (65001).
SIT can be enabled via --enable-developer or
--enable-sit. It is on by default in Windows.
RRL processing as been updated to know about SIT with
legitimate clients not being rate limited. [RT #35389]
3741. [func] "delve" (domain entity lookup and validation engine):
A new tool with dig-like semantics for performing DNS
lookups, with internal DNSSEC validation, using the
same resolver and validator logic as named. This
allows easy validation of DNSSEC data in environments
with untrustworthy resolvers, and assists with
troubleshooting of DNSSEC problems. (Note: not yet
available on win32.) [RT #32406]
3733. [func] Improve interface scanning support. Interface
information will be automatically updated if the
OS supports routing sockets (MacOS, *BSD, Linux).
Use "automatic-interface-scan no;" to disable.
Add "rndc scan" to trigger a scan. [RT #23027]
information will be automatically updated if the
OS supports routing sockets. Use
"automatic-interface-scan no;" to disable.
Add "rndc scan" to trigger a scan. [RT #23027]
3705. [func] "configure --enable-native-pkcs11" enables BIND
to use the PKCS#11 API for all cryptographic
functions, so that it can drive a hardware service
module directly without the need to use a modified
OpenSSL as intermediary (so long as the HSM's vendor
provides a complete-enough implementation of the
PKCS#11 interface). This has been tested successfully
with the Thales nShield HSM and with SoftHSMv2 from
the OpenDNSSEC project. [RT #29031]
3615. [cleanup] "configure" now finishes by printing a summary
of optional BIND features and whether they are
active or inactive. ("configure --enable-full-report"
increases the verbosity of the summary.) [RT #31777]
3528. [func] New "dnssec-coverage" command scans the timing
metadata for a set of DNSSEC keys and reports if a
lapse in signing coverage has been scheduled
inadvertently. (Note: This tool depends on python;
it will not be built or installed on systems that
do not have a python interpreter.) [RT #28098]
