Since top-level 25 domains are now DNSSEC-signed, and DNSSEC validation is active by 26 default, the statements are no longer needed. :gl:`#3953` 27 28Bug Fixes 29~~~~~~~~~ 30 31- Several bugs which could cause :iscman:`named` to crash during catalog 32 zone processing have been fixed. :gl:`#3955` :gl:`#3968` :gl:`#3997` 33 34- Previously, downloading large zones over TLS (XoT) from a primary 35 could hang the transfer on the secondary, especially when the 36 connection was unstable. This has been fixed. :gl:`#3867` 37 38- Performance of DNSSEC validation in zones with many DNSKEY records has 39 been improved. :gl:`#3981` 40 41Known Issues 42~~~~~~~~~~~~ 43 44- There are no new known issues with this release.
