  63. The Internet Domain Name System (<acronym class="acronym">DNS</acronym>)
  64. consists of the syntax
  65. to specify the names of entities in the Internet in a hierarchical
  66. manner, the rules used for delegating authority over names, and the
  67. system implementation that actually maps names to Internet
  68. addresses. <acronym class="acronym">DNS</acronym> data is maintained in a
  69. group of distributed
  70. hierarchical databases.

  76. The Berkeley Internet Name Domain
  77. (<acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym>) implements a
  78. domain name server for a number of operating systems. This
  79. document provides basic information about the installation and
  80. care of the Internet Systems Consortium (<acronym class="acronym">ISC</acronym>)
  81. <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> version 9 software package for
  82. system administrators.

  92. In this document, <span class="emphasis"><em>Chapter 1</em></span> introduces
  93. the basic <acronym class="acronym">DNS</acronym> and <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> concepts. <span class="emphasis"><em>Chapter 2</em></span>
  94. describes resource requirements for running <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> in various
  95. environments. Information in <span class="emphasis"><em>Chapter 3</em></span> is
  96. <span class="emphasis"><em>task-oriented</em></span> in its presentation and is
  97. organized functionally, to aid in the process of installing the
  98. <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> 9 software. The task-oriented
  99. section is followed by
  100. <span class="emphasis"><em>Chapter 4</em></span>, which contains more advanced
  101. concepts that the system administrator may need for implementing
  102. certain options. <span class="emphasis"><em>Chapter 5</em></span>
  103. describes the <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> 9 lightweight
  104. resolver. The contents of <span class="emphasis"><em>Chapter 6</em></span> are
  105. organized as in a reference manual to aid in the ongoing
  106. maintenance of the software. <span class="emphasis"><em>Chapter 7</em></span> addresses
  107. security considerations, and
  108. <span class="emphasis"><em>Chapter 8</em></span> contains troubleshooting help. The
  109. main body of the document is followed by several
  110. <span class="emphasis"><em>appendices</em></span> which contain useful reference
  111. information, such as a <span class="emphasis"><em>bibliography</em></span> and
  112. historic information related to <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym>
  113. and the Domain Name

  248. The purpose of this document is to explain the installation
  249. and upkeep of the <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> (Berkeley Internet
  250. Name Domain) software package, and we
  251. begin by reviewing the fundamentals of the Domain Name System
  252. (<acronym class="acronym">DNS</acronym>) as they relate to <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym>.
  253. </p>

  256. <a name="id2564741"></a>DNS Fundamentals</h3></div></div></div>
  257. <p>
  258. The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical, distributed
  259. database. It stores information for mapping Internet host names to
  260. IP
  261. addresses and vice versa, mail routing information, and other data
  262. used by Internet applications.
  263. </p>
  264. <p>
  265. Clients look up information in the DNS by calling a
  266. <span class="emphasis"><em>resolver</em></span> library, which sends queries to one or
  267. more <span class="emphasis"><em>name servers</em></span> and interprets the responses.
  268. The <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> 9 software distribution
  269. contains a
  270. name server, <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span>, and a resolver
  271. library, <span><strong class="command">liblwres</strong></span>. The older
  272. <span><strong class="command">libbind</strong></span> resolver library is also available
  273. from ISC as a separate download.
  274. </p>
  275. </div>
  276. <div class="sect2" lang="en">
  277. <div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title">
  278. <a name="id2564775"></a>Domains and Domain Names</h3></div></div></div>
  279. <p>
  280. The data stored in the DNS is identified by <span class="emphasis"><em>domain names</em></span> that are organized as a tree according to
  281. organizational or administrative boundaries. Each node of the tree,
  282. called a <span class="emphasis"><em>domain</em></span>, is given a label. The domain
  283. name of the
  284. node is the concatenation of all the labels on the path from the
  285. node to the <span class="emphasis"><em>root</em></span> node. This is represented
  286. in written form as a string of labels listed from right to left and
  287. separated by dots. A label need only be unique within its parent
  288. domain.
  289. </p>
  290. <p>
  291. For example, a domain name for a host at the
  292. company <span class="emphasis"><em>Example, Inc.</em></span> could be
  293. <code class="literal">ourhost.example.com</code>,
  294. where <code class="literal">com</code> is the
  295. top level domain to which
  296. <code class="literal">ourhost.example.com</code> belongs,
  297. <code class="literal">example</code> is
  298. a subdomain of <code class="literal">com</code>, and
  299. <code class="literal">ourhost</code> is the
  300. name of the host.
  301. </p>
  302. <p>
  303. For administrative purposes, the name space is partitioned into
  304. areas called <span class="emphasis"><em>zones</em></span>, each starting at a node and
  305. extending down to the leaf nodes or to nodes where other zones
  306. start.
  307. The data for each zone is stored in a <span class="emphasis"><em>name server</em></span>, which answers queries about the zone using the
  308. <span class="emphasis"><em>DNS protocol</em></span>.
  309. </p>
  310. <p>
  311. The data associated with each domain name is stored in the
  312. form of <span class="emphasis"><em>resource records</em></span> (<acronym class="acronym">RR</acronym>s).
  313. Some of the supported resource record types are described in
  314. <a href="Bv9ARM.ch06.html#types_of_resource_records_and_when_to_use_them" title="Types of Resource Records and When to Use Them">the section called &#8220;Types of Resource Records and When to Use Them&#8221;</a>.
  315. </p>
  316. <p>
  317. For more detailed information about the design of the DNS and
  318. the DNS protocol, please refer to the standards documents listed in
  319. <a href="Bv9ARM.ch09.html#rfcs" title="Request for Comments (RFCs)">the section called &#8220;Request for Comments (RFCs)&#8221;</a>.

  324. <a name="id2567180"></a>Zones</h3></div></div></div>
  325. <p>
  326. To properly operate a name server, it is important to understand
  327. the difference between a <span class="emphasis"><em>zone</em></span>
  328. and a <span class="emphasis"><em>domain</em></span>.
  329. </p>
  330. <p>
  331. As stated previously, a zone is a point of delegation in
  332. the <acronym class="acronym">DNS</acronym> tree. A zone consists of
  333. those contiguous parts of the domain
  334. tree for which a name server has complete information and over which
  335. it has authority. It contains all domain names from a certain point
  336. downward in the domain tree except those which are delegated to
  337. other zones. A delegation point is marked by one or more
  338. <span class="emphasis"><em>NS records</em></span> in the
  339. parent zone, which should be matched by equivalent NS records at
  340. the root of the delegated zone.
  341. </p>
  342. <p>
  343. For instance, consider the <code class="literal">example.com</code>
  344. domain which includes names
  345. such as <code class="literal">host.aaa.example.com</code> and
  346. <code class="literal">host.bbb.example.com</code> even though
  347. the <code class="literal">example.com</code> zone includes
  348. only delegations for the <code class="literal">aaa.example.com</code> and
  349. <code class="literal">bbb.example.com</code> zones. A zone can
  350. map
  351. exactly to a single domain, but could also include only part of a
  352. domain, the rest of which could be delegated to other
  353. name servers. Every name in the <acronym class="acronym">DNS</acronym>
  354. tree is a
  355. <span class="emphasis"><em>domain</em></span>, even if it is
  356. <span class="emphasis"><em>terminal</em></span>, that is, has no
  357. <span class="emphasis"><em>subdomains</em></span>. Every subdomain is a domain and
  358. every domain except the root is also a subdomain. The terminology is
  359. not intuitive and we suggest that you read RFCs 1033, 1034 and 1035
  360. to
  361. gain a complete understanding of this difficult and subtle
  362. topic.
  363. </p>
  364. <p>
  365. Though <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> is called a "domain name
  366. server",
  367. it deals primarily in terms of zones. The master and slave
  368. declarations in the <code class="filename">named.conf</code> file
  369. specify
  370. zones, not domains. When you ask some other site if it is willing to
  371. be a slave server for your <span class="emphasis"><em>domain</em></span>, you are
  372. actually asking for slave service for some collection of zones.
  373. </p>
  374. </div>
  375. <div class="sect2" lang="en">
  376. <div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title">
  377. <a name="id2567257"></a>Authoritative Name Servers</h3></div></div></div>
  378. <p>
  379. Each zone is served by at least
  380. one <span class="emphasis"><em>authoritative name server</em></span>,
  381. which contains the complete data for the zone.
  382. To make the DNS tolerant of server and network failures,
  383. most zones have two or more authoritative servers, on
  384. different networks.
  385. </p>
  386. <p>
  387. Responses from authoritative servers have the "authoritative
  388. answer" (AA) bit set in the response packets. This makes them
  389. easy to identify when debugging DNS configurations using tools like
  390. <span><strong class="command">dig</strong></span> (<a href="Bv9ARM.ch03.html#diagnostic_tools" title="Diagnostic Tools">the section called &#8220;Diagnostic Tools&#8221;</a>).
  391. </p>
  392. <div class="sect3" lang="en">
  393. <div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title">
  394. <a name="id2567281"></a>The Primary Master</h4></div></div></div>
  395. <p>
  396. The authoritative server where the master copy of the zone
  397. data is maintained is called the
  398. <span class="emphasis"><em>primary master</em></span> server, or simply the
  399. <span class="emphasis"><em>primary</em></span>. Typically it loads the zone
  400. contents from some local file edited by humans or perhaps
  401. generated mechanically from some other local file which is
  402. edited by humans. This file is called the
  403. <span class="emphasis"><em>zone file</em></span> or
  404. <span class="emphasis"><em>master file</em></span>.
  405. </p>
  406. <p>
  407. In some cases, however, the master file may not be edited
  408. by humans at all, but may instead be the result of
  409. <span class="emphasis"><em>dynamic update</em></span> operations.
  410. </p>
  411. </div>
  412. <div class="sect3" lang="en">
  413. <div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title">
  414. <a name="id2567379"></a>Slave Servers</h4></div></div></div>
  415. <p>
  416. The other authoritative servers, the <span class="emphasis"><em>slave</em></span>
  417. servers (also known as <span class="emphasis"><em>secondary</em></span> servers)
  418. load
  419. the zone contents from another server using a replication process
  420. known as a <span class="emphasis"><em>zone transfer</em></span>. Typically the data
  421. are
  422. transferred directly from the primary master, but it is also
  423. possible
  424. to transfer it from another slave. In other words, a slave server
  425. may itself act as a master to a subordinate slave server.
  426. </p>
  427. </div>
  428. <div class="sect3" lang="en">
  429. <div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title">
  430. <a name="id2567400"></a>Stealth Servers</h4></div></div></div>
  431. <p>
  432. Usually all of the zone's authoritative servers are listed in
  433. NS records in the parent zone. These NS records constitute
  434. a <span class="emphasis"><em>delegation</em></span> of the zone from the parent.
  435. The authoritative servers are also listed in the zone file itself,
  436. at the <span class="emphasis"><em>top level</em></span> or <span class="emphasis"><em>apex</em></span>
  437. of the zone. You can list servers in the zone's top-level NS
  438. records that are not in the parent's NS delegation, but you cannot
  439. list servers in the parent's delegation that are not present at
  440. the zone's top level.

  442. <p>
  443. A <span class="emphasis"><em>stealth server</em></span> is a server that is
  444. authoritative for a zone but is not listed in that zone's NS
  445. records. Stealth servers can be used for keeping a local copy of
  446. a
  447. zone to speed up access to the zone's records or to make sure that
  448. the
  449. zone is available even if all the "official" servers for the zone
  450. are
  451. inaccessible.
  452. </p>
  453. <p>
  454. A configuration where the primary master server itself is a
  455. stealth server is often referred to as a "hidden primary"
  456. configuration. One use for this configuration is when the primary
  457. master
  458. is behind a firewall and therefore unable to communicate directly
  459. with the outside world.

  467. The resolver libraries provided by most operating systems are
  468. <span class="emphasis"><em>stub resolvers</em></span>, meaning that they are not
  469. capable of
  470. performing the full DNS resolution process by themselves by talking
  471. directly to the authoritative servers. Instead, they rely on a
  472. local
  473. name server to perform the resolution on their behalf. Such a
  474. server
  475. is called a <span class="emphasis"><em>recursive</em></span> name server; it performs
  476. <span class="emphasis"><em>recursive lookups</em></span> for local clients.
  477. </p>
  478. <p>
  479. To improve performance, recursive servers cache the results of
  480. the lookups they perform. Since the processes of recursion and
  481. caching are intimately connected, the terms
  482. <span class="emphasis"><em>recursive server</em></span> and
  483. <span class="emphasis"><em>caching server</em></span> are often used synonymously.
  484. </p>
  485. <p>
  486. The length of time for which a record may be retained in
  487. the cache of a caching name server is controlled by the
  488. Time To Live (TTL) field associated with each resource record.

  493. <p>
  494. Even a caching name server does not necessarily perform
  495. the complete recursive lookup itself. Instead, it can
  496. <span class="emphasis"><em>forward</em></span> some or all of the queries
  497. that it cannot satisfy from its cache to another caching name
  498. server,
  499. commonly referred to as a <span class="emphasis"><em>forwarder</em></span>.
  500. </p>
  501. <p>
  502. There may be one or more forwarders,
  503. and they are queried in turn until the list is exhausted or an
  504. answer
  505. is found. Forwarders are typically used when you do not
  506. wish all the servers at a given site to interact directly with the
  507. rest of
  508. the Internet servers. A typical scenario would involve a number
  509. of internal <acronym class="acronym">DNS</acronym> servers and an
  510. Internet firewall. Servers unable
  511. to pass packets through the firewall would forward to the server
  512. that can do it, and that server would query the Internet <acronym class="acronym">DNS</acronym> servers
  513. on the internal server's behalf.

  521. The <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> name server can
  522. simultaneously act as
  523. a master for some zones, a slave for other zones, and as a caching
  524. (recursive) server for a set of local clients.
  525. </p>
  526. <p>
  527. However, since the functions of authoritative name service
  528. and caching/recursive name service are logically separate, it is
  529. often advantageous to run them on separate server machines.
  530. A server that only provides authoritative name service
  531. (an <span class="emphasis"><em>authoritative-only</em></span> server) can run with
  532. recursion disabled, improving reliability and security.
  533. A server that is not authoritative for any zones and only provides
  534. recursive service to local
  535. clients (a <span class="emphasis"><em>caching-only</em></span> server)
  536. does not need to be reachable from the Internet at large and can
  537. be placed inside a firewall.
