  81. <para>
  82. BIND 10 requires Python 3.1. Later versions may work, but Python
  83. 3.1 is the minimum version which will work.
  84. </para>
  85. <para>
  86. BIND 10 uses the Botan crypto library for C++. It requires
  87. at least Botan version 1.8.
  88. </para>
  89. <para>
  90. BIND 10 uses the log4cplus C++ logging library. It requires
  91. at least log4cplus version 1.0.3.
  92. </para>
  93. <para>
  94. The authoritative server requires SQLite 3.3.9 or newer.
  95. The <command>b10-xfrin</command>, <command>b10-xfrout</command>,
  96. and <command>b10-zonemgr</command> modules require the
  97. libpython3 library and the Python _sqlite3.so module.

  113. BIND 10 is modular. Part of this modularity is
  114. accomplished using multiple cooperating processes which, together,
  115. provide the server functionality. This is a change from
  116. the previous generation of BIND software, which used a
  117. single process.
  118. </para>
  119. <para>
  120. At first, running many different processes may seem confusing.
  121. However, these processes are started, stopped, and maintained
  122. by a single command, <command>bind10</command>.
  123. This command starts a master process which will start other
  124. processes as needed.
  125. The processes started by the <command>bind10</command>
  126. command have names starting with "b10-", including:

  711. The kind specifies how a failure of the component should
  712. be handled. If it is set to <quote>dispensable</quote>
  713. (the default unless you set something else), it will get
  714. started again if it fails. If it is set to <quote>needed</quote>
  715. and it fails at startup, the whole <command>bind10</command>
  716. shuts down and exits with error exit code. But if it fails
  717. some time later, it is just started again. If you set it
  718. to <quote>core</quote>, you indicate that the system is
  719. not usable without the component and if such component
  720. fails, the system shuts down no matter when the failure
  721. happened. This is the behaviour of the core components
  722. (the ones you can't turn off), but you can declare any

  724. turn these off, they just can't fail).

  766. be running (you would have to find and edit the configuration
  767. directly). Also, some modules might have dependencies

  783. creator is finished).<!-- TODO --> So we need to specify
  784. the time when the switch from root do the given user happens
  785. and that's what the setuid component is for. The switch is
  786. done at the time the setuid component would be started, if
  787. it was a process. The default configuration contains the
  788. setuid component with priority 5, <command>b10-auth</command>
  789. has 10 to be started before the switch and everything else

  1228. trigger a zone transfer manually, without a prior configuration
  1229. (see below)).

  1243. <title>Enabling IXFR</title>
  1244. <para>
  1245. As noted above, <command>b10-xfrin</command> uses AXFR for
  1246. zone transfers by default. To enable IXFR for zone transfers
  1247. for a particular zone, set the <userinput>use_ixfr</userinput>
  1248. configuration parameter to <userinput>true</userinput>.
  1249. In the above example of configuration sequence, you'll need
  1250. to add the following before performing <userinput>commit</userinput>:
  1251. <screen>&gt; <userinput>config set Xfrin/zones[0]/use_ixfr true</userinput></screen>

  1253. <!-- TODO: http://bind10.isc.org/ticket/1279 -->
  1254. <note><simpara>
  1255. One reason why IXFR is disabled by default in the current
  1256. release is because it does not support automatic fallback from IXFR to
  1257. AXFR when it encounters a primary server that doesn't support
  1258. outbound IXFR (and, not many existing implementations support
  1259. it). Another, related reason is that it does not use AXFR even
  1260. if it has no knowledge about the zone (like at the very first
  1261. time the secondary server is set up). IXFR requires the
  1262. "current version" of the zone, so obviously it doesn't work
  1263. in this situation and AXFR is the only workable choice.
  1264. The current release of <command>b10-xfrin</command> does not
  1265. make this selection automatically.
  1266. These features will be implemented in a near future
  1267. version, at which point we will enable IXFR by default.

  1548. December 2011. It is currently described as skeleton server and
  1549. can be described as an early prototype that is not yet fully
  1550. functional. It is mature enough to conduct first tests in lab
  1551. environment, but it has significant limitations. See <xref
  1552. linkend="dhcp4-limit"/> for details.
  1553. </para>
  1554. <para>
  1555. DHCPv4 server is implemented as <command>b10-dhcp4</command>
  1556. daemon. As it is configurable yet, it is fully autonomous,
  1557. i.e. it does not interact with <command>b10-cfgmgr</command>.
  1558. To start DHCPv4 server, simply input:
  1559. <screen>
  1560. #<userinput>cd src/bin/dhcp4</userinput>
  1561. #<userinput>./b10-dhcp4</userinput>
  1562. </screen>

  1564. binary may reside in src/bin/dhcp4 in your source code
  1565. directory, in /usr/local/bin/b10-dhcp4 or other directory
  1566. you specified during compilation.
  1567. Afre start, server will detect available network interfaces
  1568. and will attempt to open UDP sockets on all interfaces that
  1569. are up, running, are not loopback and have IPv4 address
  1570. assigned.
  1571. Server will then listen to incoming traffic. Currently
  1572. supported client messages are DISCOVER and REQUEST. Server

  1744. The logging system in BIND 10 is configured through the
  1745. Logging module. All BIND 10 modules will look at the
  1746. configuration in Logging to see what should be logged and
  1747. to where.

  1752. <para>
  1753. Within BIND 10, a message is logged through a component
  1754. called a "logger". Different parts of BIND 10 log messages
  1755. through different loggers, and each logger can be configured
  1756. independently of one another.
  1757. </para>
  1758. <para>
  1759. In the Logging module, you can specify the configuration
  1760. for zero or more loggers; any that are not specified will
  1761. take appropriate default values..
  1762. </para>
  1763. <para>
  1764. The three most important elements of a logger configuration
  1765. are the <option>name</option> (the component that is
  1766. generating the messages), the <option>severity</option>
  1767. (what to log), and the <option>output_options</option>
  1768. (where to log).
  1769. </para>
  1770. <section>
  1771. <title>name (string)</title>
  1772. <para>
  1773. Each logger in the system has a name, the name being that
  1774. of the component using it to log messages. For instance,
  1775. if you want to configure logging for the resolver module,
  1776. you add an entry for a logger named <quote>Resolver</quote>. This
  1777. configuration will then be used by the loggers in the
  1778. Resolver module, and all the libraries used by it.

  1780. <!-- TODO: later we will have a way to know names of all modules
  1781. Right now you can only see what their names are if they are running
  1782. (a simple 'help' without anything else in bindctl for instance).
  1783. -->
  1784. <para>
  1785. If you want to specify logging for one specific library
  1786. within the module, you set the name to
  1787. <replaceable>module.library</replaceable>. For example, the
  1788. logger used by the nameserver address store component
  1789. has the full name of <quote>Resolver.nsas</quote>. If
  1790. there is no entry in Logging for a particular library,
  1791. it will use the configuration given for the module.
  1792. <!-- TODO: how to know these specific names?
  1793. We will either have to document them or tell the administrator to
  1794. specify module-wide logging and see what appears...
  1795. -->
  1796. </para>
  1797. <para>
  1798. <!-- TODO: severity has not been covered yet -->
  1799. To illustrate this, suppose you want the cache library
  1800. to log messages of severity DEBUG, and the rest of the
  1801. resolver code to log messages of severity INFO. To achieve
  1802. this you specify two loggers, one with the name
  1803. <quote>Resolver</quote> and severity INFO, and one with
  1804. the name <quote>Resolver.cache</quote> with severity
  1805. DEBUG. As there are no entries for other libraries (e.g.
  1806. the nsas), they will use the configuration for the module
  1807. (<quote>Resolver</quote>), so giving the desired behavior.
  1808. </para>
  1809. <para>
  1810. One special case is that of a module name of <quote>*</quote>
  1811. (asterisks), which is interpreted as <emphasis>any</emphasis>
  1812. module. You can set global logging options by using this,
  1813. including setting the logging configuration for a library
  1814. that is used by multiple modules (e.g. <quote>*.config</quote>
  1815. specifies the configuration library code in whatever
  1816. module is using it).
  1817. </para>
  1818. <para>
  1819. If there are multiple logger specifications in the
  1820. configuration that might match a particular logger, the
  1821. specification with the more specific logger name takes
  1822. precedence. For example, if there are entries for for
  1823. both <quote>*</quote> and <quote>Resolver</quote>, the
  1824. resolver module &mdash; and all libraries it uses &mdash;
  1825. will log messages according to the configuration in the
  1826. second entry (<quote>Resolver</quote>). All other modules
  1827. will use the configuration of the first entry
  1828. (<quote>*</quote>). If there was also a configuration
  1829. entry for <quote>Resolver.cache</quote>, the cache library
  1830. within the resolver would use that in preference to the
  1831. entry for <quote>Resolver</quote>.
  1832. </para>
  1833. <para>
  1834. One final note about the naming. When specifying the
  1835. module name within a logger, use the name of the module
  1836. as specified in <command>bindctl</command>, e.g.
  1837. <quote>Resolver</quote> for the resolver module,
  1838. <quote>Xfrout</quote> for the xfrout module, etc. When
  1839. the message is logged, the message will include the name
  1840. of the logger generating the message, but with the module
  1841. name replaced by the name of the process implementing
  1842. the module (so for example, a message generated by the
  1843. <quote>Auth.cache</quote> logger will appear in the output
  1844. with a logger name of <quote>b10-auth.cache</quote>).

  2168. Each message written by BIND 10 to the configured logging
  2169. destinations comprises a number of components that identify
  2170. the origin of the message and, if the message indicates
  2171. a problem, information about the problem that may be
  2172. useful in fixing it.
  2173. </para>
  2174. <para>
  2175. Consider the message below logged to a file:
  2176. <screen>2011-06-15 13:48:22.034 ERROR [b10-resolver.asiolink]
  2177. ASIODNS_OPENSOCK error 111 opening TCP socket to 127.0.0.1(53)</screen>
  2178. </para>
  2179. <para>
  2180. Note: the layout of messages written to the system logging
  2181. file (syslog) may be slightly different. This message has
  2182. been split across two lines here for display reasons; in the
  2183. logging file, it will appear on one line.)
  2184. </para>
  2185. <para>
  2186. The log message comprises a number of components:

  2189. <term>2011-06-15 13:48:22.034</term>

  2204. The source of the message. This comprises two components:
  2205. the BIND 10 process generating the message (in this
  2206. case, <command>b10-resolver</command>) and the module
  2207. within the program from which the message originated
  2208. (which in the example is the asynchronous I/O link
  2209. module, asiolink).

  2227. A brief description of the cause of the problem.
  2228. Within this text, information relating to the condition
  2229. that caused the message to be logged will be included.
  2230. In this example, error number 111 (an operating
  2231. system-specific error number) was encountered when
  2232. trying to open a TCP connection to port 53 on the
  2233. local system (address 127.0.0.1). The next step
  2234. would be to find out the reason for the failure by
  2235. consulting your system's documentation to identify
  2236. what error number 111 means.
