If memory serves.. AXFR is a zone transfer... So, at your firewall, would
want to only allowing TCP queries from your backup (secondary,
trinary..etc.) dns servers (on the outside of your firewall) and limit
everyone else to UDP queries.  And for your bind9 config something like
this:

allow-transfer {
backup.dns1.host.blah;
backup.dns2.host.blah;
localhost;
};



just my $0.02
