I just successfully migrated a several zones from NSD to Knot DNS. The
migration was straightforward and quick, but I limiting the number of
addresses per interface and remote server to one doesn't make sense to
me especially with dual stack hosts. This is more intuitive to me in
NSD. What is the rationale behind the current syntax?

Hi Everyone,
we're proud to announce, that release candidate for the next major
release 1.2 is out!
Apart from a couple bugfixes, it features full DDNS support (including
update forwarding).
There are a few limitations related to DNSSEC-signed zones, please
refer to user manual for more information.
Access control for dynamic updates could be configured in a similar
fashion to transfers, using the 'update-in' keyword.
Next major thing is an updated remote control tool.
Basic commands for start/stop/restart/compile and checks are the same
as they were,
but the command for refresh/flush/status could be executed remotely
given the right configuration.
You can enable remote control interface with a new config section
'control', f.e.:
control {
listen-on { address 127.0.0.1@5553; }
allow remote0;
}
You can also specify a remote with associated TSIG key for security reasons.
Knot control tool then accepts host, port and TSIG key as a parameter, f.e.:
$ knotc -s 127.0.0.1 -p 5553 status
Key could be also specified in a file instead of a command line parameter.
But that is just a tip of the iceberg. For more smaller features, like
configurable TCP timeouts or LOC support,
refer to RELNOTES and a user documentation.
