Thank you, in my searching I failed to come across that.

Do you know if it's been replaced by something more "practical to deploy"? I found some discussion regarding support for "The PROXY Protocol" (https://www.haproxy.org/download/2.2/doc/proxy-protocol.txt) but I don't believe it's planned. This seems like such a common scenario, I'm surprised the support that was there was removed but not replaced by anything. I suppose it is open-source software and I'm free to port it into 9.16, but this isn't a big enough problem for me personally to justify the time spent.

I did compile 9.16.20 from source since the latest in Debian repos is
9.16.15 but the result is the same. The doc snippet in my original email
was from 9.11 docs -- could this feature not have been brought forward
into 9.16 at all? The only related documented removed feature is
geoip-use-ecs.
It was actually removed in 9.14:

4952.   [func]          Authoritative server support in named for the
                         EDNS CLIENT-SUBNET option (which was experimental
                         and not practical to deploy) has been removed.

                         The ECS option is still supported in dig and mdig
                         via the +subnet option, and can be parsed and logged
                         when received by named, but it is no longer used
                         for ACL processing. The "geoip-use-ecs" option
                         is now obsolete; a warning will be logged if it is
                         used in named.conf. "ecs" tags in an ACL definition
                         are also obsolete and will cause the configuration
                         to fail to load.  [GL #32]

Sorry about the inadequate documentation. There's a mechanism for flagging
obsolete options in named.conf and logging a useful message about them, but
it's not so straightforward when the option is still valid but the
parameters have changed.
