  1. Putting a DNS server on a network allows for the replacement of IP addresses of individual machines by a name. As a result, it's even possible to associate multiple names to the same machine to update the different available services.
  2. This statement tells named to listen on the default TCP port 953 of the loopback address and allow rndc commands coming from the localhost, if the proper key is given. The key-name specifies a name in the key statement within the /etc/named.conf file. The next example illustrates a sample key statement.

Difficulty

BIND uses a shared secret key authentication method to grant privileges to hosts. It is important to know how to generate this key for administration purposes. In this hands-on lab we will learn to configure the RNDC key and configuration file, and link it to the named service. To accomplish this, we will install the BIND package and recreate the RNDC key and configuration. We will then copy the new configuration to the named.conf file. To complete this lab, you will have to show that a new configuration has been created and that DNS queries are being cached on localhost.
