Practical BIND 9 Management - 2/5. Statistics and Log Analysis.

BIND 9 can produce an extensive array of log messages and metrics. Experienced DNS administrators plan ahead to capture the most important metrics and logs, and to leverage available open source tools for capturing and analyzing them. Carsten shows examples using the BIND XML Statistics Channel, with open source tools including LogStash, Prometheus, Elastic Search, Kibana, and Grafana.
