Support for BIND and PowerDNS DNS servers

In ispmanager, you can match domain names and IP addresses and manage DNS records. Both BIND and PowerDNS are supported

BIND

BIND is the most common DNS server implementation and is included by default in all UNIX systems. In BIND, information about domain zones is stored as files.

PowerDNS

PowerDNS is a fast server that stores records about domain zones in databases. It’s ideal if you’re dealing with a large number of IP addresses.

DNSSEC

DNSSEC is an extension of the DNS protocol that protects visitors to a website from phishing. Phishing means using a fake site to masquerade as a real one that users are trying to access. The fraudster intercepts requests to the real server and replaces the DNS data so that visitors wind up at the fake site.

DNSSEC protects against this type of attack by creating a unique, secure digital signature for resource records. With DNSSEC enabled, all responses from a given DNS server are authenticated by another DNS server.
