BIND 9

BIND 9 has evolved to be a very flexible, full-featured DNS system. Whatever your application is, BIND 9 probably has the required features. As the first, oldest, and most commonly deployed solution, there are more network engineers who are already familiar with BIND 9 than with any other system.

BIND 9 is transparent open source, licensed under the MPL 2.0 license. Users are free to add functionality to BIND 9 and contribute back to the community through our open Gitlab.

If you want source code, download a current version from the ISC website or our FTP site. Or, install our updated ISC packages for Ubuntu, CentOS/Fedora, and the standard Debian package. If you prefer Docker, get our official Docker image.

Help is available via our community mailing list, or you may purchase a support subscription for expert, confidential, 24×7 support from the ISC team.
