21f1794606dce19928cf455029e173321f166380Mark Andrews[1] Queries to zones that have failed to load return SERVFAIL rather
21f1794606dce19928cf455029e173321f166380Mark Andrewsthan a non-authoritative response. This is considered a feature.
21f1794606dce19928cf455029e173321f166380Mark Andrews[2] CLASS ANY queries are not supported. This is considered a feature.
21f1794606dce19928cf455029e173321f166380Mark Andrews[3] Wildcard records are not supported in DNSSEC secure zones.
21f1794606dce19928cf455029e173321f166380Mark Andrews[4] Servers authoritative for secure zones being resolved by BIND 9
21f1794606dce19928cf455029e173321f166380Mark Andrewsmust support EDNS0 (RFC2671), and must return all relevant SIGs and
21f1794606dce19928cf455029e173321f166380Mark AndrewsNXTs in responses rather than relying on the resolving server to
21f1794606dce19928cf455029e173321f166380Mark Andrewsperform separate queries for missing SIGs and NXTs.
21f1794606dce19928cf455029e173321f166380Mark Andrews[5] When receiving a query signed with a SIG(0), the server will only
21f1794606dce19928cf455029e173321f166380Mark Andrewsbe able to verify the signature if it has the key in its local
21f1794606dce19928cf455029e173321f166380Mark Andrewsauthoritative data; it will not do recursion or validation to
21f1794606dce19928cf455029e173321f166380Mark Andrewsretrieve unknown keys.
21f1794606dce19928cf455029e173321f166380Mark Andrews[6] Section 4 is ignored.
21f1794606dce19928cf455029e173321f166380Mark Andrews[7] Requires --with-idn to enable entry of IDN labels within dig,
21f1794606dce19928cf455029e173321f166380Mark Andrewshost and nslookup at compile time. ACE labels are supported
