<title>DESCRIPTION</title>
<para><command>named-checkzone</command>
checks the syntax and integrity of a zone file. It performs the
same checks as <command>named</command> does when loading a
zone. This makes <command>named-checkzone</command> useful for
checking zone files before configuring them into a name server.
</para>
<para>
<command>named-compilezone</command> is similar to
<command>named-checkzone</command>, but it always dumps the
zone contents to a specified file in a specified format.
Additionally, it applies stricter check levels by default,
since the dump output will be used as an actual zone file
loaded by <command>named</command>.
When manually specified otherwise, the check levels must at
least be as strict as those specified in the
<command>named</command> configuration file.
</para>

<term>-i <replaceable class="parameter">mode</replaceable></term>
<listitem>
<para>
Perform post-load zone integrity checks. Possible modes are
<command>"full"</command> (default),
<command>"full-sibling"</command>,
<command>"local"</command>,
<command>"local-sibling"</command> and
<command>"none"</command>.
</para>
<para>
Mode <command>"full"</command> checks that MX records
refer to A or AAAA record (both in-zone and out-of-zone
hostnames). Mode <command>"local"</command> only
checks MX records which refer to in-zone hostnames.
</para>
<para>
Mode <command>"full"</command> checks that SRV records
refer to A or AAAA record (both in-zone and out-of-zone
hostnames). Mode <command>"local"</command> only
checks SRV records which refer to in-zone hostnames.
</para>
<para>
Mode <command>"full"</command> checks that delegation NS
records refer to A or AAAA record (both in-zone and out-of-zone
hostnames). It also checks that glue address records
in the zone match those advertised by the child.
Mode <command>"local"</command> only checks NS records which
refer to in-zone hostnames or that some required glue exists,
that is when the nameserver is in a child zone.
</para>
<para>
Mode <command>"full-sibling"</command> and
<command>"local-sibling"</command> disable sibling glue
checks but are otherwise the same as <command>"full"</command>
and <command>"local"</command> respectively.
</para>
<para>
Mode <command>"none"</command> disables the checks.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>-f <replaceable class="parameter">format</replaceable></term>
<listitem>
<para>
Specify the format of the zone file.
Possible formats are <command>"text"</command> (default),
<command>"raw"</command>, and <command>"map"</command>.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>-F <replaceable class="parameter">format</replaceable></term>
<listitem>
<para>
Specify the format of the output file specified.
For <command>named-checkzone</command>,
this does not cause any effects unless it dumps the zone
contents.
</para>
<para>
Possible formats are <command>"text"</command> (default),
which is the standard textual representation of the zone,
and <command>"map"</command>, <command>"raw"</command>,
and <command>"raw=N"</command>, which store the zone in a
binary format for rapid loading by <command>named</command>.
<command>"raw=N"</command> specifies the format version of
the raw zone file: if N is 0, the raw file can be read by
any version of <command>named</command>; if N is 1, the file
can be read by release 9.9.0 or higher; the default is 1.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>-k <replaceable class="parameter">mode</replaceable></term>
<listitem>
<para>
Perform <command>"check-names"</command> checks with the
specified failure mode.
Possible modes are <command>"fail"</command>
(default for <command>named-compilezone</command>),
<command>"warn"</command>
(default for <command>named-checkzone</command>) and
<command>"ignore"</command>.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>-l <replaceable class="parameter">ttl</replaceable></term>
<listitem>
<para>
Sets a maximum permissible TTL for the input file.
Any record with a TTL higher than this value will cause
the zone to be rejected. This is similar to using the
<command>max-zone-ttl</command> option in
<filename>named.conf</filename>.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>-L <replaceable class="parameter">serial</replaceable></term>
<listitem>
<para>
When compiling a zone to "raw" or "map" format, set the
"source serial" value in the header to the specified serial
number. (This is expected to be used primarily for testing
purposes.)
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>-m <replaceable class="parameter">mode</replaceable></term>
<listitem>
<para>
Specify whether MX records should be checked to see if they
are addresses. Possible modes are <command>"fail"</command>,
<command>"warn"</command> (default) and
<command>"ignore"</command>.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>-M <replaceable class="parameter">mode</replaceable></term>

(default for <command>named-checkzone</command>) and
<command>"ignore"</command>.
</para>

<term>-o <replaceable class="parameter">filename</replaceable></term>
<listitem>
<para>
Write zone output to <filename>filename</filename>.

write to standard out.
This is mandatory for <command>named-compilezone</command>.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>-r <replaceable class="parameter">mode</replaceable></term>
<listitem>
<para>
Check for records that are treated as different by DNSSEC but
are semantically equal in plain DNS.
Possible modes are <command>"fail"</command>,
<command>"warn"</command> (default) and
<command>"ignore"</command>.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>-s <replaceable class="parameter">style</replaceable></term>
<listitem>
<para>
Specify the style of the dumped zone file.
Possible styles are <command>"full"</command> (default)
and <command>"relative"</command>.
The full format is most suitable for processing
automatically by a separate script.
On the other hand, the relative format is more
human-readable and is thus suitable for editing by hand.
For <command>named-checkzone</command>
this does not cause any effects unless it dumps the zone
contents.
It also does not have any meaning if the output format
is not text.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>-S <replaceable class="parameter">mode</replaceable></term>
<listitem>
<para>

run by a similarly chrooted named.

(default), <command>"ignore"</command>.
</para>
</listitem>

<varlistentry>
<term>-w <replaceable class="parameter">directory</replaceable></term>
<listitem>
<para>
chdir to <filename>directory</filename> so that
relative
filenames in master file $INCLUDE directives work. This
is similar to the directory clause in
<filename>named.conf</filename>.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>-D</term>
<listitem>
<para>
Dump zone file in canonical format.
This is always enabled for <command>named-compilezone</command>.

</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>-W <replaceable class="parameter">mode</replaceable></term>
<listitem>
<para>
Specify whether to check for non-terminal wildcards.
Non-terminal wildcards are almost always the result of a
failure to understand the wildcard matching algorithm (RFC 1034).
Possible modes are <command>"warn"</command> (default)
and
<command>"ignore"</command>.
</para>
