<a name="root_key"></a>New DNSSEC Root Key</h3></div></div></div>
|
|
<p>
|
|
ICANN is in the process of introducing a new Key Signing Key (KSK) for
|
|
the global root zone. BIND has multiple methods for managing DNSSEC
|
|
trust anchors, with somewhat different behaviors. If the root
|
|
key is configured using the <span class="command"><strong>managed-keys</strong></span>
|
|
statement, or if the pre-configured root key is enabled by using
|
|
<span class="command"><strong>dnssec-validation auto</strong></span>, then BIND can keep keys up
|
|
to date automatically. Servers configured in this way should have
|
|
begun the process of rolling to the new key when it was published in
|
|
the root zone in July 2017. However, keys configured using the
|
|
<span class="command"><strong>trusted-keys</strong></span> statement are not automatically
|
|
maintained. If your server is performing DNSSEC validation and is
|
|
configured using <span class="command"><strong>trusted-keys</strong></span>, you are advised to
|
|
change your configuration before the root zone begins signing with
|
|
the new KSK. This is currently scheduled for October 11, 2017.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
This release includes an updated version of the
|
|
<code class="filename">bind.keys</code> file containing the new root
|
|
key. This file can also be downloaded from
|
|

<a name="relnotes_license"></a>License Change</h3></div></div></div>
|
|
<p>
|
|
With the release of BIND 9.11.0, ISC changed to the open
|
|
source license for BIND from the ISC license to the Mozilla
|
|
Public License (MPL 2.0).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The MPL-2.0 license requires that if you make changes to
|
|
licensed software (e.g. BIND) and distribute them outside
|
|
your organization, that you publish those changes under that
|
|
same license. It does not require that you publish or disclose
|
|
anything other than the changes you made to our software.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
This requirement will not affect anyone who is using BIND, with
|
|
or without modifications, without redistributing it, nor anyone
|
|
redistributing it without changes. Therefore, this change will be
|
|
without consequence for most individuals and organizations who are
|
|
using BIND.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Those unsure whether or not the license change affects their
|
|
use of BIND, or who wish to discuss how to comply with the
|
|
license may contact ISC at <a class="link" href="https://www.isc.org/mission/contact/" target="_top">
|
