Implement DNSTAP in Auth #7314

Open tduboys opened 5 years ago

tduboys commented 5 years ago

Short description

As it already exists on dnsdist, and a feature request exist for recursor, it should be useful in some case to have a dnstap output on the authoritative part of powerdns.

Usecase

DNSTAP is a good way to log what's happening on a DNS server. When managing huge authoritative servers, DNSTAP can help debugging stuffs. And if you correctly size your infrastructure, DNSTAP can handle a lot of traffic without huge impact for the DNS part. Logging DNS queries is not easy, but DNSTAP is a good way to do.

Description

Same things that for dnsdist part or recursor part (issue #6373 )

Are there any plans to implement this?

Not currently. Running dnsdist in front of an auth may be a feasible workaround.
