sven c15bdfca05 Refactor: move shared NOTIFY helpers into a NotifyJobRunner base class
- New NotifyJobRunner base class (extends netbox.jobs.JobRunner) holds
  the plugin SETTINGS and the helpers shared by both NOTIFY jobs:
  load_tsig_key(), send_notify() and get_soa_serial() (promoted from
  the former module-level _-prefixed functions).
- SendClientNotify and SendNSNotify extend the base and access the
  helpers via self. Behavior, job names and kwargs are unchanged.
- The nameserver-only helpers moved into SendNSNotify as
  notify_ns_enabled() (classmethod, reads cls.SETTINGS) and
  resolve_zone_nameserver_ips() (instance method).
- No changes to any callers: schedule_client_notify(),
  schedule_ns_notify() and the catalog zone NOTIFY scheduling keep
  their names and call sites.

sven fe24dbdd98 Add configurable catalog zone naming
- New setting 'catalog_zone_name' (default: 'catz') to change the name of
  the per-view catalog zone. Full DNS names (multiple labels) are
  supported; names are handled as dns.name.Name objects, making the
  comparison case-insensitive and tolerant of trailing dots.
- New setting 'catalog_zone_name_includes_view' (default: False). When
  enabled, the catalog zone name is prefixed with the view name:
  '<view>.<catalog_zone_name>'.
- The transfer endpoint now serves exactly the one configured catalog
  zone name per view instead of accepting both 'catz' and
  '<view>.catz'.
- The catalog zone NOTIFY now targets only the configured name instead
  of notifying for both variants. Scheduling moved to
  catalog_zone_manager, which owns all catalog zone naming.

The plugin exposes one catalog zone per view. Each catalog zone is made available under the special ## Overview
zone name **"catz"** and addtionally under **"[viewname].catz"** and may be queried through the
built-in DNS server just like any other dns zone.

This process needs to be scheduled as a background service for the built-in DNS Server to work
correctly. For Linux users with Systemd (Ubuntu, etc), Matt Kollross provides a startup unit and
instructions [here](docs/install-systemd-service.md).
- **Zone transfers (RFC 5936)** — DNS servers pull authoritative zone data directly from NetBox.
- **Catalog zones (RFC 9432)** — consumers automatically discover newly created and deleted zones.
One catalog zone is exposed per view and may be queried through the built-in DNS server just like
any other zone. The catalog zone name is configurable (see
[Catalog zone naming](#catalog-zone-naming)) and defaults to `catz`.
- **NOTIFY (RFC 1996)** — clients and zone nameservers are informed about zone changes so they can
request a fresh zone transfer (see [NOTIFY](#notify)).
- **Views and TSIG** — each view requires its own TSIG key, which is also used to map incoming
requests to the correct view (see [TSIG authentication](#tsig-authentication)).
- **DNSSEC** — not supported yet; will be added once BIND9 provides a mechanism to configure it
through the catalog zones system.
## Service parameters ## Compatibility
Parameter | Description
--------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------
--port | Port to listen on for requests (defaults to 5354)
--address | IP of interface to bind to (defaults to 0.0.0.0)
This plugin extends netbox-plugin-dns, and versioning is aligned with it: the major and minor
version of both plugins must match. For example, when using netbox-plugin-dns `v1.5.5`, install
netbox-plugin-dns-bridge `v1.5.x`.
## Plugin settings | netbox-plugin-dns | netbox-plugin-dns-bridge |
Plugin settings should be configured under `PLUGINS_CONFIG` in `netbox_dns_bridge`: | :---------------: | :----------------------: |
``` | 1.5.x | 1.5.x |
| 1.6.x | 1.6.x |
| 1.7.x | 1.7.x (current) |
NetBox and Python version requirements follow netbox-plugin-dns; see its
[documentation](https://github.com/sys4/netbox-plugin-dns).
## Requirements
- [NetBox](https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox) with the
[netbox-plugin-dns](https://github.com/sys4/netbox-plugin-dns) plugin installed.
- A DNS server with RFC 9432 catalog zone support (e.g. BIND9) as the consumer.
- Network reachability from the consumer to the NetBox host on TCP and UDP port `5354` (or the
port you have configured).
- At least one running `rq-worker` service if you enable any of the NOTIFY features, since they
use NetBox's background job system.
## Installation
The full walkthrough — including a complete BIND9 configuration with two views — is available in
[docs/installation-guide.md](docs/installation-guide.md). The short version:
1. Install the package:
```
cd netbox
echo netbox-plugin-dns-bridge >> local_requirements.txt
. venv/bin/activate
pip install -r local_requirements.txt
```
2. Enable the plugin in `configuration.py`:
```python
PLUGINS = ['netbox_dns', 'netbox_dns_bridge']
```
3. Configure the plugin under `PLUGINS_CONFIG` (see [Configuration](#configuration)).
4. Run migrations:
```
manage.py migrate
```
5. Start the transfer endpoint as a background service (see
[Running the transfer endpoint](#running-the-transfer-endpoint)).
## Configuration
Plugin settings are configured under `PLUGINS_CONFIG` in `configuration.py`:
```python
PLUGINS_CONFIG = { PLUGINS_CONFIG = {
'netbox_dns_bridge': { 'netbox_dns_bridge': {
... ...
...
} }
} }
``` ```

| `notify_ns_all_zones` | bool | `False` | Send NS NOTIFY for every zone on serial change |
| `notify_ns_port` | int | `53` | Destination port for NS NOTIFY messages |
### Catalog zone naming
The name of the catalog zone exposed for each view is configurable:
| Setting | Default | Description |
| ------- | ------- | ----------- |
| `catalog_zone_name` | `catz` | The name of the catalog zone. May be a full DNS name. |
| `catalog_zone_name_includes_view` | `False` | Prepend the view name: `<view>.<catalog_zone_name>`. |
`catalog_zone_name` accepts full DNS names with multiple labels. Case and a trailing dot are
irrelevant — names are handled and compared as `dns.name.Name` objects. With
`catalog_zone_name_includes_view` disabled (the default), the plain `catalog_zone_name` is used for
every view; when enabled, the view name is prepended (e.g. `_default_.catz`).
```python
'netbox_dns_bridge': {
'catalog_zone_name': 'catz',
'catalog_zone_name_includes_view': False,
...
}
``` ```
Note that the DNS server consuming the catalog zone must be configured with the same zone name,
e.g. BIND9's `catalog-zones { zone "<catalog_zone_name>" ... }` statement and the corresponding
slave zone declaration must match.
### TSIG authentication
The TSIG keys allow clients to query the transfer endpoint and are also used to sign NOTIFY
messages sent to clients on zone changes. Each view should have its own unique key so the plugin
can identify the view the client is trying to access. Reusing a key for multiple views yields
unpredictable behavior.
```python
'tsig_keys': { 'tsig_keys': {
'the-view-name-here': { 'the-view-name-here': {

## Running the transfer endpoint
## Plugin compatibility To start the transfer endpoint in the foreground:
This plugin extends the netbox-plugin-dns plugin. As such the versioning was changed to match the
one of netbox-plugin-dns more closely. To guarantee compatability, ensure that the major and minor
version match between both plugins. For example, when using netbox-plugin-dns `v1.5.5` install
netbox-plugin-dns-bridge `v1.5.x`.
```
manage.py dns-transfer-endpoint --port 5354
```
## Installation guide | Parameter | Description |
This setup provisions a BIND9 server directly with DNS data from NetBox. BIND9 can optionally run on | --------- | ----------- |
a separate server. If so, any reference to 127.0.0.1 in step 6 must be replaced with the IP address | `--port` | Port to listen on for requests (defaults to 5354) |
of the NetBox host. TCP and UDP traffic from the BIND9 server to the NetBox host must be allowed on | `--address` | IP of interface to bind to (defaults to 0.0.0.0) |
port 5354 (or the port you have configured).
This guide assumes: This process needs to run as a background service for the built-in DNS server to work correctly.
- NetBox has been installed under /opt/netbox For Linux users with systemd (Ubuntu, etc), Matt Kollross provides a startup unit and instructions
- Bind9 is installed on the same host as NetBox in [docs/install-systemd-service.md](docs/install-systemd-service.md). Remember to activate the
- The NetBox DNS Plugin netbox-plugin-dns is installed venv when running the service in the background.
- The following dns views exist in NetBox DNS:
- `public` (the default)
- `private`
1. Preliminaries ## Notes and troubleshooting
- Install Bind9 on the same host that netbox is on.
- Generate a TSIG Key for the `public` and `private` dns views respectively.
2. Adding required package - **TSIG key reuse** — each view must have its own unique TSIG key. Reusing a key across multiple
``` views yields unpredictable behavior, since the plugin uses the key to map requests to views.
cd netbox - **Catalog zone name mismatch** — the zone name configured on the consumer (e.g. BIND9's
echo netbox-plugin-dns-bridge >> local_requirements.txt `catalog-zones { zone "..." }` statement and the corresponding slave zone declaration) must match
. venv/bin/activate the plugin's `catalog_zone_name` setting.
pip install -r local_requirements.txt - **NS NOTIFY not firing** — NS NOTIFY is only triggered by a change of the zone's SOA serial
``` number. Other zone edits that leave the serial untouched do not trigger a NOTIFY.
- **NOTIFY jobs are not sent** — both NOTIFY mechanisms require at least one `rq-worker` service to

PLUGINS_CONFIG = {
"netbox_dns_bridge": {
"tsig_keys": {
"public": {
"keyname": "public_view_key",
"algorithm": "hmac-sha256",
"secret": "base64-encoded-secret"
},
"private": {
"keyname": "private_view_key",
"algorithm": "hmac-sha256",
"secret": "base64-encoded-secret"
}
}
}
}
```
Note that the tsig-key attributes keyname, algorithm and secret form a
dictionary in following python structure path:
```
PLUGINS_CONFIG.netbox_dns_bridge.tsig_keys.<dns_view_name>
```
This allows the plugin to map requests to the right dns view using the tsig
signature from each request.
4. Run migrations
```
manage.py migrate
```
5. Start listener
This step runs the DNS endpoint used by bind to configure itself. You may want to write a
service wrapper that runs this in the background. A guide for setting up a systemd service on
Ubuntu is provided by Matt Kollross [here](docs/install-systemd-service.md). Dont forget to
activate the venv if you do decide to run this service in the background.
Note that `--port 5354` is optional. The listener will bind this port by default.
```
manage.py dns-transfer-endpoint --port 5354
```
6. Configuring a Bind9 to interact with NetBox via the dns-transfer-endpoint endpoint. Note that its
not possible to give all the correct details of the `options` block as it is heavily dependent
on the Operating System used. Please dont forget to adjust as required.

# Installation guide
This setup provisions a BIND9 server directly with DNS data from NetBox. BIND9 can optionally run on
a separate server. If so, any reference to 127.0.0.1 in step 6 must be replaced with the IP address
of the NetBox host. TCP and UDP traffic from the BIND9 server to the NetBox host must be allowed on
port 5354 (or the port you have configured).
This guide assumes:
- NetBox has been installed under /opt/netbox
- BIND9 is installed on the same host as NetBox
- The NetBox DNS plugin netbox-plugin-dns is installed
- The following DNS views exist in NetBox DNS:
- `public` (the default)
- `private`
## 1. Preliminaries
- Install BIND9 on the same host that NetBox is on.
- Generate a TSIG key for the `public` and `private` DNS views respectively.
## 2. Adding required package
```
cd netbox
echo netbox-plugin-dns-bridge >> local_requirements.txt
. venv/bin/activate
pip install -r local_requirements.txt
```
## 3. Updating netbox plugin configuration (configuration.py)
Change the following line from
```
PLUGINS = ['netbox_dns']
```
to
```
PLUGINS = ['netbox_dns', 'netbox_dns_bridge']
```
Configure the DNS Bridge plugin using the `PLUGINS_CONFIG` dictionary. Change
```
PLUGINS_CONFIG = {}
```
to
```
PLUGINS_CONFIG = {
"netbox_dns_bridge": {
"tsig_keys": {
"public": {
"keyname": "public_view_key",
"algorithm": "hmac-sha256",
"secret": "base64-encoded-secret"
},
"private": {
"keyname": "private_view_key",
"algorithm": "hmac-sha256",
"secret": "base64-encoded-secret"
}
}
}
}
```
Note that the tsig-key attributes keyname, algorithm and secret form a dictionary in the following
Python structure path:
```
PLUGINS_CONFIG.netbox_dns_bridge.tsig_keys.<dns_view_name>
```
This allows the plugin to map requests to the right DNS view using the TSIG signature from each
request.
## 4. Run migrations
```
manage.py migrate
```
## 5. Start listener
This step runs the DNS endpoint used by BIND to configure itself. You may want to write a service
wrapper that runs this in the background. A guide for setting up a systemd service on Ubuntu is
provided in [install-systemd-service.md](install-systemd-service.md). Don't forget to activate the
venv if you do decide to run this service in the background.
Note that `--port 5354` is optional. The listener will bind this port by default.
```
manage.py dns-transfer-endpoint --port 5354
```
## 6. Configuring BIND9
Configure BIND9 to interact with NetBox via the dns-transfer-endpoint endpoint. Note that it is
not possible to give all the correct details of the `options` block as it is heavily dependent on
the operating system used. Please don't forget to adjust it as required.
> **Note:** Since BIND 9.18, `type slave` is deprecated in favor of `type secondary` and
> `masters` in favor of `primaries`. Both still work, but newer deployments may prefer the new
> keywords.

```
## 7. Restart BIND9
Restart BIND9 — done. The server will now discover zones in its views through the catalog zone and
transfer them from NetBox.
