check-names
Restrict the character set and syntax of certain domain names in master files and/or DNS
responses received from the network. The default varies according to zone type. For
mas-
ter
zones, the default is fail.For
slave zones, the default is warn.
database Specify the type of database to be used for storing the zone data. The string following the
database keyword is interpreted as a list of whitespace-delimited words. The first word
identifies the database type, and any subsequent words are passed as arguments to the
database to be interpreted in a way specific to the database type. The default is
rbt,
BIND 9’s native in-memory red-black-tree database. This database does not take argu-
ments. Other values are possible if additional database drivers have been linked into the
server.
delegation-only
The flag only applies to hint and
stub zones. If set to yes, then the zone is also treated
as if it is also a
delegation-only
type zone.
dialup See the description in The options Statement section.
file A zone file designates a domain name with all of its associated subdomains, IP addresses,
and mail server. A zone file contains resource records (A, CNAME, NS,
SOA, and so on).
forward Only meaningful if the zone has a forwarders list. The only value causes the lookup
to fail after trying the forwarders and getting no answer, while first allows a normal
lookup to be tried.
forwarders Used to override the list of global forwarders. If it is not specified in a zone of type
for-
ward
, no forwarding is done for the zone; the global options are not used.
ixfr-from-differences
If yes and the server loads a new version of a master zone from its zone file or receives a
new version of a slave file by a nonincremental zone transfer, it will compare the new ver-
sion to the previous one and calculate a set of differences. The differences are then logged
in the zone’s journal file such that the changes can be transmitted to downstream slaves as
an incremental zone transfer.
By allowing incremental zone transfers to be used for nondynamic zones, this option saves
bandwidth at the expense of increased CPU and memory consumption at the master. In
particular, if the new version of a zone is completely different from the previous one, the
set of differences will be of a size comparable to the combined size of the old and new zone
version, and the server will need to temporarily allocate memory to hold this complete
difference set.
