First, you should add a "server" declaration to your named.conf file(s).
Here's an example:
 

server 123.2.3.4 {
    support-ixfr yes;
    transfer-format many-answers;
};

 
Now in a zone file, you can define a specific IXFR transaction log per zone:
 

zone somewhere.mil {
    type slave;
    ixfr-base "somewhere.mil.ixfr";
    file "somewhere.mil.sec";
    masters {
        123.2.3.4;
    };
    check-names warn;
    allow-query { any; };
    allow-transfer { none; };
    allow-update { none; }; 
};

 
Then you should use the following to the global "options" declaration:
 

maintain-ixfr-base yes;

 
If you're running a version of BIND later than 8.2.3 (I don't think
Sidewinder 5.1.x does), you can limit the IXFR transaction log size with the
additional global option:
 

max-ixfr-log-size 1M;

 
If you haven't restricted BIND version queries (which you probably should),
you can find out what version of BIND with the following query:
 

nslookup -querytype=TXT -class=CHAOS version.bind 127.1.0.1

 
Otherwise, you'll have to look through the actual BIND named executable for
any version strings.  That should be it.

Subject: [Sidewinder] Setting up IXFR on Sidewinder



Hi,
I am a contractor working at a site where they are running Sidewinder
5.2.0.1. We would like to set up the internal DNS on the Sidewinder so that
the firewall will request incremental zone file updates (IXFR) when it
receives notification of a zone update from the internal DNS server. Does
anyone know how I might configure the Sidewinder to do this?

Thanks in advance --- clay
