To support signing of updates, TSIG keys can be defined using the
`named_keys` variable. This variable takes a list of objects with the
following properties:
* `name`: The name of the key
* `algorithm`: The signature algorithm (default: `hmac-md5`)
* `secret`: The base64-encoded key material
The *named* role now supports generating configuration for authoritative
DNS zones and DNSSEC keys. Zones are defined by populating the
`named_zones` variable with a list of objects describing the zone. Zone
properties can include:
* `name`: The DNS domain name
* `type`: The zone type, defaults to `master`
* `allow_update`: A list of hosts/networks or DNSSEC key names (which
must be specified as an object with a `key` property)
* `update_policy`: A list of BIND update policy statements
* `ttl`: The default (minimum) TTL for the zone
* `origin`: The authoritative name server for the zone
* `refresh`, `retry`, `expire`: Record cache timeout values
* `default_records`: A list of default records, defined as objects with
the following properties:
* `name`: The RR name
* `type`: The RR type (default: `A`)
* `value`: The RR value
Zone files will be created in `/var/named/dynamic`. Existing zone files
will **not** be overwritten; management of zone records is done using
`nsupdate` or similar.
The `named` daemon does not seem to pick up all changes to the
configuration file during a graceful reload. To avoid strange states,
the daemon is now fully restarted after the configuration file is
regenerated.
The *named* role configures the BIND DNS server on managed nodes. It
writes `/etc/named.conf`, using a template that supports most of the
commonly-used options. The configuration can be augmented by other
templates, etc. by specifying file paths in the `named_options_include`
or `named_global_include` variables, both of which are lists.
