RE: difference between default views in named_statistics.txt
Hello Team, After enabling statistics-channel in bind conf file, I am getting the following O/P in the Incoming Request table: Incoming Requests QUERY 31553047 NOTIFY 2994 UPDATE 17896 I just want to know whether the query count will set to ZERO after STOP/START named daemon or in case of system restart? Sorry to bother you guys but I can't STOP/START the named service at my end. That's why I am asking this question.

Hello Ben, benjamin fernandis benjo11...@gmail.com writes: Resolver Statistics for View _default and Resolver Statistics for View _bind what is the difference between these two views which also same in named_Statistics file. BIND 9 has this unique feature called views (see the BIND 9 ARM document for a in detail discussion of views). Even if no views are configured in the BIND 9 configuration file named.conf, BIND 9 has two internal views that always exist: _default and _bind. The view _default contains all DNS zones that are defined in named.conf and do not belong to any extra configured view. The view _bind contains all the build-in special zones that BIND 9 uses to report internal information in the CHAOS (CH) network class and top level domain bind (authors.bind, version.bind, hostname.bind). try: dig @ip-of-your-dns-server ch tx hostname.bind So the statistics output give you information how many queries are received for normal DNS zones (view _default) and the special build in zone (view _bind).

difference between default views in named_statistics.txt
Hi, We are using bind as a recursive dns server in our college. It is working fine. Now we need to make a report regarding QPS, NXDOMAIN, FORMAT ERROR, Server Failure, Name Error, Not Implemented, Refused queries comes to our recursive DNS SERVER. For this we use named_statistics file which gives all information regarding our requirement. But when look in to named_statistics file, It shows below output, cat /var/named/chroot/var/named/data/named_stats.txt +++ Statistics Dump +++ (1356630443) ... ... ... [View: _bind] ++ Name Server Statistics ++ 4 IPv4 requests received 2 requests with EDNS(0) received 4 responses sent 2 responses with EDNS(0) sent 3 queries resulted in successful answer 4 queries resulted in non authoritative answer 1 queries resulted in NXDOMAIN 4 queries caused recursion ++ Zone Maintenance Statistics ++ ++ Resolver Statistics ++ [Common] [View: default] 67 IPv4 queries sent 66 IPv4 responses received 3 NXDOMAIN received 8 FORMERR received 8 EDNS(0) query failures 10 query retries 2 query timeouts 12 IPv4 NS address fetches 21 DNSSEC validation attempted 16 DNSSEC validation succeeded 5 DNSSEC NX validation succeeded 6 queries with RTT 10-100ms 60 queries with RTT 100-500ms While making report regarding our requirement, do we need to consider Resolver Statistics or Name Server Statistics values ? What will be difference between view : default and view _bind ? Because when we look on NXDOMAIN values view: default shows 3 and view: _bind shows 1, so as we are playing recursive dns server role in network, from which we consider correct value for our requirement ? if is there any nice document to understand this statistics, please share it.

Re: difference between default views in named_statistics.txt
Hi Alan, Thanks for your kind response. I enabled statistics channel and in that i can see Resolver Statistics for View _default and Resolver Statistics for View _bind what is the difference between these two views which also same in named_Statistics file.
