  • Unbound: a New Secure and High Performance Open Source DNS Server
    New Open Source DNS Server Released Today Unbound – A Secure, High-Performance Alternative to BIND – Makes its Debut within Open Source Community Amsterdam, The Netherlands and Mountain View, CA – May 20, 2008 – Unbound – a new open source alternative to the BIND domain name system (DNS) server– makes its worldwide debut today with the worldwide public release of Unbound 1.0 at http://unbound.net. Released to open source developers by NLnet Labs, VeriSign, Inc. (NASDAQ: VRSN), Nominet, and Kirei, Unbound is a validating, recursive, and caching DNS server designed as a high- performance alternative for BIND (Berkeley Internet Name Domain). Unbound will be supported by NLnet Labs. An essential component of the Internet, the DNS ties domain names (such as www.verisign.com) to the IP addresses and other information that Web browsers need to access and interact with specific sites. Though it is unknown to the vast majority of Web users, DNS is at the heart of a range of Internet-based services beyond Web browsing, including email, messaging and Voice Over Internet Protocol (VOIP) telecommunications. Although BIND has been the de facto choice for DNS servers since the 1980s, a desire to seek an alternative server that excels in security, performance and ease of use prompted an effort to develop an open source DNS implementation. Unbound is the result of that effort. Mostly deployed by ISPs and enterprise users, Unbound will also be available for embedding in customer devices, such as dedicated DNS appliances and ADSL modems. By making Unbound code available to open source developers, its originators hope to enable rapid development of features that have not traditionally been associated with DNS.

  • Stateless DNS
    Technical Report KN{2014{DiSy{004 Distributed System Laboratory Stateless DNS Daniel Kaiser, Matthias Fratz, Marcel Waldvogel, Valentin Dietrich, Holger Strittmatter Distributed Systems Laboratory Department of Computer and Information Science University of Konstanz { Germany Konstanzer Online-Publikations-System (KOPS) URL: http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bsz:352-0-267760 Abstract. Several network applications, like service discovery, file dis- covery in P2P networks, distributed hash tables, and distributed caches, use or would benefit from distributed key value stores. The Domain Name System (DNS) is a key value store which has a huge infrastructure and is accessible from almost everywhere. Nevertheless storing information in this database makes it necessary to be authoritative for a domain or to be \registered" with a domain, e.g. via DynDNS, to be allowed to store and update resource records using nsupdate . Applications like the ones listed above would greatly benefit from a configurationless approach, giving users a much more convenient experience. In this report we describe a technique we call Stateless DNS, which allows to store data in the cache of the local DNS server. It works without any infrastructure updates; it just needs our very simple, configurationless echo DNS server that can parse special queries containing information desired to be stored, process this information, and generate DNS answers in a way that the DNS cache that was asked the special query will store the desired information. Because all this happens in the authority zone of our echo DNS server, we do not cause cache poisoning. Our tests show that Stateless DNS works with a huge number of public DNS servers.

  • Analysis of DNS Resolver Performance Measurements Author
    Master in System and Network Engineering Analysis of DNS Resolver Performance Measurements Supervisors: Author: Yuri Schaeffer Hamza Boulakhrif [email protected] [email protected] Willem Toorop [email protected] July 13, 2015 Abstract The Domain Name System (DNS) is an essential building block of the Internet. Applica- tions depend on it in order to operate properly. Therefore DNS resolvers are required to perform well, and do whatever they can to provide an answer to a query. In this paper a methodology is devised to measure the performance of the Unbound, BIND, and PowerDNS resolvers. Measurements of these resolvers is required to be objective and not biased. Analysis is conducted on these performance measurements, where the implementations are compared to each other. Corner cases have also been identified and analysed. Acknowledgement I would like to thank NLnet Labs for providing this interesting Research Project. Also the support they provided throughout this project is really appreciated. Especially Willem Toorop and Yuri Schaeffer who answered all of my questions and guided me through this project. Thanks go also to Wouter Wijngaards who answered my questions related to DNS resolvers. The performed measurements during this project were carried out from the SNE lab, at the University of Amsterdam. I would also like to thank Harm Dermois for providing his server in the lab to perform these measurements. Special thanks also go to the SNE staff for their support and guidance. This does not only concern this project but the entire study. Hamza Boulakhrif 1 Contents 1 Introduction 3 1.1 Related Work . .3 1.2 Research Questions .
