This idea doesn't break anything, it just implement an easy way to keep
your info fresh into your recursives dns. The principle of RFC-1996.

RFC 1996 deals with messages from a master to its slave(s), so only on the authoritative side. Resolvers are zone agnostic, so this can only work partly and, more importantly, in a controlled environment where the master knows which resolvers to inform. Now, in an enterprise environment this might be the case, but distributing the zone content close to the resolvers
and not caching there might be a better option.

That's my point. In an enterprise enviroment we need to resolve our
locals zones and external zones too. With notify I can use only unbound
as resolver, pointing our zones to dns master with fast zone update.

Your approach to take zone and put close to unbound have problems, like:

1. If you use unbound as recursive and put nsd/bind in another port, you
have protocol overhead.
2. If you use unbound with local-zone and local-data you need some
script to publish and take care.

Why do not take advantage of unbound cache?


I'm reading this with interest, and wonder why the TTLs on the authoritative data is not tweaked to reflect the dynamic nature of (certain data).
