BIND version 9 is a major rewrite of nearly all aspects of the underlying BIND
architecture. Some of the important features of BIND 9 are:
DNS Security: DNSSEC (signed zones), TSIG (signed DNS requests)
IP version 6: Answers DNS queries on IPv6 sockets, IPv6 resource records (AAAA)
Experimental IPv6 Resolver Library
DNS Protocol Enhancements: IXFR, DDNS, Notify, EDNS0
Improved standards conformance
Views: One server process can provide multiple "views" of the DNS namespace,
e.g. an "inside" view to certain clients, and an "outside" view to others.
Multiprocessor Support
BIND 9.9 includes a number of changes from BIND 9.8 and earlier releases,
including:
NXDOMAIN redirection
Improved startup and reconfiguration time, especially with large
numbers of authoritative zones
New "inline-signing" option, allows named to sign zones completely
transparently, including static zones
Many other new features, especially for DNSSEC
See the CHANGES file for more information on features.
