Today, we released version 4.13.0 of the authoritative DNS nameserver NSD.

NSD 4.13.0 now comes with the features --enable-bind8-stats, --enable-zone-stats, --enable-ratelimit, --enable-dnstap enabled by default, reducing confusion when using the same version of NSD packaged by different distributions with different configure options.

Additionally, NSD 4.13.0 contains experimental support for AF_XDP sockets as described in an earlier post that can be enabled using the --enable-xdp configure option.

You can get source packages of this version from the downloads page.
