• From Lecture Notes:
  • Master Zone File Syntax
  • RR types and common RDATA
  • Dig Examples
• Configuration files for BIND server and Zones samples :
  • Server == ZERATUL: master for ipv6.int-evry.fr. ...
  • Server == HUGO: slave for int-evry.fr. and ipv6.int-evry.fr ...
  • Server == LAB: prototype files for Lab
  • Simple zone example
  • Exhaustive zone example (also operational: dig @ipv6-1.int-evry.fr zone.test. AXFR)
  • DNSSEC signed exhaustive zone sample
  • How to signed previous DNSSEC zone?
  • Operational Zones
    • INT-EVRY.FR: dig @diamant.int-evry.fr AXFR int-evry.fr.
    • IPv6.INT-EVRY.FR: dig @ipv6-1.int-evry.fr AXFR ipv6.int-evry.fr.
    • reverse IPv4: dig @diamant.int-evry.fr AXFR 159.157.in-addr.arpa.
    • reverse IPv6: dig @ipv6-1.int-evry.fr AXFR 3.0.2.3.0.6.6.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa.
    • DNSSEC: dig @alambix.int-evry.fr AXFR int-evry.caddisc.enst.idsa.prd.fr.
• Root servers reference ("named.root"):
  • from DIG: dig or dig . NS or dig @c.root-servers.net. . NS
  • from FTP : ftp://ftp.internic.net/domain/named.root
  • more info : www.root-servers.org
• Unix resolver configuration, /etc/resolv.conf : INT default, or IPv6 sample .
• Controling named with rndc: rndc.conf sample generated by rndc-confgen
