DNS and BIND on IPv6: DNS for the Next-Generation Internet 1st Edition by Cricket Liu (PDF)

Description

If you’re preparing to roll out IPv6 on your network, this concise book provides the essentials you need to support this protocol with DNS. You’ll learn how DNS was extended to accommodate IPv6 addresses, and how you can configure a BIND name server to run on the network. This book also features methods for troubleshooting problems with IPv6 forward- and reverse-mapping, and techniques for helping islands of IPv6 clients communicate with IPv4 resources.Topics include:DNS and IPv6—Learn the structure and representation of IPv6 addresses, and the syntaxes of AAAA and PTR records in the ip6.arpa IPv6 reverse-mapping zoneBIND on IPv6—Use IPv6 addresses and networks in ACLs, and register and delegate to IPv6-speaking name serversResolver Configuration—Configure popular stub resolvers (Linux/Unix, MacOS X, and Windows) to query IPv6-speaking name serversDNS64—Learn about the transition technology that allows clients with IPv6-only network stacks to communicate with IPv4 serversTroubleshooting—Use the nslookup and dig troubleshooting tools to look up the IPv6 addresses of a domain name, or reverse-map an IPv6 address to a domain name

User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐All in all very little content and too high level to be useful, it’s more like a pamphlet than a book with only a few pages. Like most people in IT, I have a working knowledge of what IPv6 is but wanted the details on how an implementation works. This wasn’t up to snuff; it’s basically 30 bucks for a wikipedia entry, I ended up returning my copy. I’m not sure who the audience is for; it will be far too basic for most people in technology, but a novice or non-IT person wouldn’tNote this is not a dig against O’Reilly or the Author; just this particular book. I’d highly recommend DNS and Bind book from the same author, and have many many O’Reilly books. However this one has too little information to be useful, and costs as much as a full sized book. I’d recommend bumping up and buying a current edition of DNS and BIND; it costs about the same, from the same author, and will be a much better use of your time.-Jay

⭐O’Reilly should be ashamed to scam their readers into buying what looks like an updated edition of DNS and Bind but is really a 37 page glorified pamphlet. The forward actually begins with an apology, as well it should. O’Reilly should either partially refund at least $20 to everyone who purchased this or else send everyone a free copy of the latest DNS and Bind that they thought they were buying.

⭐While this book covers its subject matter well I was disappoint by its small size for the price. I would have expected it to be about a third of the price.

⭐DNS & Bind on IPv6 is ok; I don’t like having to jump here and there to find what I’m looking for. The order and examples need to be improved.

⭐nice reference on DNS and Bind on IPv6

⭐The information that I needed.

⭐DNS & BIND on IPv6 is a short (37 pages e-book, 52 pages print) text that could be considered an IPv6 appendix to the author’s book on DNS. It provides a brief introduction to IPv6 addressing, then moves directly into some of the new record types and configurations necessary to allow BIND to support IPv6.I would consider this a useful booklet for active BIND administrators. The information is available elsewhere, particularly in the RFC’s dealing with DNS and IPv6, but this is a much more convenient and succinct format. Background knowledge of DNS and the operation of BIND is assumed by the author, and the material would be far less useful without that foundation.Those with an interest in network security or design may also find this material of interest, although it does not directly address those areas.Overall a good resource from an authoritative source, you will have to decide whether the purchase price is justified for such a brief volume.

⭐For those of you who have supported an Internet connection and/or run your own DNS servers have probably heard about DNS and BIND by Cricket Liu and Paul Albitz. That one has been in my library for several years and I don’t see it going away anytime soon. As you increase your knowledge about IPv6, getting the best information available on dealing with DNS and BIND will serve you well.As well as you may know DNS and BIND, there will be differences when it comes to IPv6. Between setting up AAAA records and setting up reverse lookups, why learn by the school of hard knocks, when you can spend your time productively by getting IPv6 fully enabled in your environment as quickly as possible ? Your experience with IPv4 based DNS will serve a good foundation as you move into the world of IPv6.This book isn’t just about the server-side of IPv6 configuration. You also go over the client configuration as well as touch on areas such as Dynamic Resolver Configuration, NAT64 and DNS64. Just when you think you have it all covered, then you can start delving into Registering and Delegating to IPv6 Name Servers. This isn’t something that you will have running flawlessly overnight but with this book on your bookshelf, you will have the information handy when you really need it.This is another book that is available from O’Reilly Media in one of several formats that available on just about any mobile device that you can think of. One good thing about having the book in digital format is that it gives you the option cutting and pasting the examples that Cricket has in the book and putting them into the zone file you are working on. It will be a great help in getting the syntax and file setup correct.

⭐Cuando recibimos el artículo, casi parecía una broma.Tiene 30 páginas y el coste de un libro técnico de tamaño completo.Por mucho que el tema pueda ser interesante, no tiene en absoluto una buena relación calidad-precio.Like.very nice book.

⭐Item in excellent condition – as expected – thanks!
