The tab picked the first other view in view order, so a zone linked with
one view opened compared with an unrelated one.

enabled by an older version on upgrade, so the alias appears without

Reverse zones made easy, comparing views rebuilt, exploring the statistics through a query log (filters, several values, exclusions), storage on the dashboard, encrypted DNS with several host names and views per listen address, option set matching named statements, forwarding over TLS documented. Upgrade from 0.5.2 tested in Debian 13.

The client hints and docs tested DoT with kdig (Knot's, often not installed) and DoH with curl's application/dns-json, which named's DoH doesn't speak (RFC 8484 wire format only). They use dig +tls / dig +https with +tls-ca and +tls-hostname now, with the port when it isn't the default.

Each explore filter takes several values, comma separated (any of them), !value to leave one out, and *.example.com for a name and the names below it. Every value is a chip with its own ✕; clicking a value in the lists adds it, and hide leaves it out. The filter bar's fields take lists. domain= still works.

The explore page has a filter bar to type filters in (client, name or it and below, view, type, result, blocked), starting from the current filters and suggesting values from what is shown, so taking every filter out no longer means going back. The Statistics page opens it with Explore the answers.

0.6.0's first release candidate: reverse zones made easy, comparing views rebuilt, exploring the statistics through a query log, storage on the dashboard, encrypted DNS with several host names and views per listen address, option set matching named statements, forwarding over TLS documented.

jarl option set tls NAME (and key, remote-servers, primaries, http, dnssec-policy, key-store, server, acl, view, zone, parental-agents) matches the name after the keyword too: setting tls cloudflare no longer replaces tls quad9. jarl option unset tls NAME removes one by its name. docs/encrypted-dns.md has forwarding to Quad9 or Cloudflare over TLS: one changeset, the options explained, several providers, checking it works, and why not over HTTPS.

The server section shows the statistics database's size (with its -wal and -shm) and how many answers the query log holds, linking to the dashboard's Storage panel; the disk tiles get the same bar as the dashboard. GET /stats/server has database {path, bytes, query_log_rows}.

jarld keeps every answer for a while (stats.retention.queries, default 7 days) in the statistics database: time, client, view, name, type, result and what blocked it. Every client, name, view, record type, result and blocklist on the Statistics page leads to an explore page for it: answers over time, the top values of every other dimension (each a link that narrows further) and the latest answers. GET /stats/explore.
The dashboard shows the size of Jarl's databases (and the query log's rows) and, per disk Jarl uses, how full it is and the databases' share.

The setup takes several host names (one certificate for all; the health check says when the served certificate misses one), stored in the settings. Each listen address gets its own views for the host names' A/AAAA records (--address ADDR=VIEW,..., a view checkbox per address in the form), always local to the view, with a warning when a public view would get a private address; a view no longer given loses the address, other records of the names stay, and the form starts from where the records are now. Certificates (page and jarl cert show) say what named uses each for: DNS over TLS or HTTPS, on which addresses and ports.

A reverse zone's fill (and fill-ptr, the missing-PTR counts) names an address no record of its own view uses from another view's record, so an internal reverse zone can give the PTR of a host only external has an AAAA for; New reverse zone with a view chosen lists those addresses, marked. Automatic suggestions stay per view.
For hundreds of addresses: the New reverse zone list has a search; on the Zones page the public addresses fold away, have a search, show 25 at a time and Dismiss these N dismisses everything a search found in one change (reverse.dismiss takes prefixes; --dismiss takes several).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The Zones page's New reverse zone lists every network the records use without a reverse zone, in every view, also where nothing is suggested (suggestions off, dismissed, public views), marked. Picking one fills in the network and view; size buttons (/48 /56 /64 /128, /16 /24 /32) re-mask it around a record's address, so a /48 becomes the records' own /64. Fill stays on. jarl zone suggest-reverse --all [--view V]; GET /reverse-zones/suggestions?all=1&view=.

The Compare views tab and jarl zone diff compare a zone with the same zone in other views from the view you're on: a summary per view, what is answered differently (Use this everywhere), the names only some views have (Add to VIEW), and how many are the same. One name can be compared (jarl zone diff ZONE NAME [TYPE], a Compare button per record). The CLI prints one line per record, cut to the terminal (--wide shows it whole); the web UI cuts long values with the whole one on hover. GET /zones/{zone}/compare returns these sections, with ?with, ?name and ?type.

The page's Content Security Policy (style-src 'self') blocked the inline style attribute, so long statements didn't wrap and the browser console reported the violation.

Suggestions split into networks that are yours (private IPv4 /24, ULA /48, an IPv6 /48 this server has an address in), which Create all creates, and public addresses (/32 or /128) to create only if they are yours or dismiss. A view can turn suggestions off, which also keeps it out of choosing a reverse zone's view (database version 13). A zone created inside another in the same view takes the parent's records under it; a delegation and its glue stay, a linked parent keeps them with a warning.

Missing reverse zones are suggested for the private views' A and AAAA records (/24 for private IPv4, /32 for a public address, /48 for IPv6) and created filled with PTR records (jarl zone suggest-reverse, the Zones page). zone create --fill and zone fill-ptr add the PTRs a reverse zone lacks; a reverse zone created without a view goes to the private view using its addresses. Per zone, auto_ptr keeps the PTR records of A and AAAA records in step on every change (database version 12). Zone commands take a network.

jarld checks the reverse DNS of the public zones' MX and SPF addresses as the internet sees it, every 6 hours (Exposure page, jarl exposure mail, jarl_mail_reverse_dns_ok).

jarld checks the DoT and DoH listeners every 10 minutes as a client would (page, dashboard, jarl encrypted-dns health, jarl_encrypted_dns_up). The Compare views tab and jarl zone diff show what differs between a zone's views, with Use this version. --local works on unlinked zones. A changed certificates.dir is followed by encrypted DNS's tls statements. Sharing an already shared version replaces other views' overrides.

0.4.1's release candidates grew into 0.5.0: exposure checks, certificates, linked zones, encrypted DNS and per-view statistics are new features. The upgrade from 0.4.0 packages was tested in a Debian 13 container. The CLI's filtered stats summary says answers for the busiest minute too.

jarl encrypted-dns setup (and the Encrypted DNS page) finds or obtains a
certificate for the host name, checks that nothing else listens on the
DoT and DoH ports at the chosen addresses (offering a free DoH port), and
stages named's tls statement and listeners as one change, keeping port 53
where it was when there was no listen-on, plus the host name's records in
the private views (local to the view in a linked zone). Status shows what
to give Android, Linux, Firefox, Chrome and Windows clients. A tls
statement with missing files is refused (tls_file_missing), and a
certificate named uses can't be deleted. docs/encrypted-dns.md, e2e with
real DoT and DoH queries.

Zones of the same name in different views can be linked. Shared records
are kept in step: a change in one view reaches the others in the same
changeset, as explicit operations, so the diff, permission checks,
history and undo cover every view. Records local to a view override the
shared records of that name and type there; removing the override brings
the shared ones back, and sharing a view's version makes it every view's.
Each zone keeps its own options, serial and file.
Linking existing zones changes no answer: what is the same everywhere
becomes shared, the rest stays local. Unlinking keeps every record, all
local. ACME challenges are written once per link, and --view all changes
a link once. jarl zone link/unlink, zone create --link-with, record
--local/--shared, LINK column, web UI controls, POST /zones/{zone}/link
and /unlink, validation checks linked_*, store migration 11, docs and
e2e.

Jarl is now an ACME client (lego's core, no DNS providers). It answers
DNS-01 challenges in a zone it serves, or through Porkbun's DNS API while
Porkbun serves the domain; "auto" decides from the domain's public name
servers at every renewal, and a CNAME on _acme-challenge is followed.
Certificates are used for jarld's HTTPS (served without a restart; each
port speaks HTTPS and plain HTTP, plain HTTP from loopback and trusted
proxies still served) and/or written for named's DNS over TLS/HTTPS, with
rndc reconfig on renewal. Renewal follows the CA's ARI window or two
thirds of the lifetime, with back-off. Certificates you renew yourself
can be used too. Certificates page and dashboard card, jarl cert,
/api/v1/certificates, Prometheus gauges, docs/certificates.md, and an
e2e section against Pebble.

A shown option value wrapped long lines back to the left edge, losing
their indentation, and had different padding and width from the editor,
so the text and column moved when Edit opened. Values now don't wrap (a
long line scrolls), with the editor's padding and the same width. The

Jarl works out which views are reachable from the internet (match-clients
ending in a catch-all, not private-looking addresses: an internal view of a
global IPv6 prefix is still yours; a server without views: open allow-query
and a non-private listen address), with a per-view override (schema 9), and
checks public ones: rate limiting, open resolver, minimal-any, cache
snooping, open NOTIFY and transfers, version and host name, management
interfaces. Fixes are staged like any change, including rate limiting from
ISC's example in log-only mode with the secondaries exempt, then enforcing.
named logs what rate limiting limits (or would, in log-only mode, where its
counters don't move) as query-errors; Jarl routes those lines to its log
and counts them (rrl breakdown, ratelimited top lists, Prometheus
jarl_ratelimit_logged_total), shown on the new Exposure page.
A change that newly opens a public view up must be confirmed (accept_risk,
--accept-risk, a checkbox on the Changes page; 409 confirm_risk
otherwise). Findings can be acknowledged with a reason and stay visible as
info. GET /exposure, POST /exposure/fix|ack|unack, jarl exposure,
docs/exposure.md.
Also fixes query statistics skipping TSIG-signed queries ("IP#port/key
NAME" in named's log).

jarl changeset show/diff/apply/discard take the changeset from -C or
JARL_CHANGESET when no ID is given, and remove takes [ID] SEQ. A changeset
from JARL_CHANGESET is checked before anything uses it (staging included):
it must exist, be open and be the caller's own, so a stale export can't
stage into an applied changeset or into another user's draft that later
got its ID. Commands say on stderr which changeset they use, and apply and
discard remind to unset JARL_CHANGESET. -C and ID arguments are used as

ACLs, views' match lists, options with address match lists and blocking
client groups take ranges such as 10.0.10.101-10.0.10.199 or
2001:db8::100-2001:db8::1ff (negated, or with spaces around the dash, too).
Jarl stores the range as written and writes the fewest prefixes that cover
exactly that range to named.conf, with the range as a comment. New package
internal/iprange; namedconf gets an AMRange element (a range used to parse
as an ACL name), ExpandRanges and statement comments. Mistakes are refused
when entered, validation sees what ranges cover, and IPv6 ranges in the
IPv4-mapped space get a warning. The web UI shows what a range becomes
while typing (GET /catalog/ranges).

A web changeset with a staged record delete could not be applied after
the record was deleted elsewhere (e.g. with the CLI), and the error only
said "record N does not exist", so it was hard to find the operation to
remove. A delete of a record that is already gone is now a no-op with a
warning. Other operations that no longer apply fail with their number and
summary (op_summary in the API), and the Changes page marks that row and
offers to remove it from the error.

New metrics: section (enabled, listen, allow, token). /metrics is served on
the main listeners, the local socket (root and jarld's user) and optional

Client groups put devices (addresses, networks, or ACLs of them) at a
blocking step: off (only your rules), normal (the default), or steps
added above it, each including the lists of the steps below. Lists
start at a step. In each view, a gate policy zone in front of a step's
lists lets the devices below that step through (rpz-client-ip triggers
with rpz-passthru), so every list is still loaded once. The IPv6 part
of a gate leaves the IPv4-mapped range out: named matches IPv4 clients
as ::ffff:a.b.c.d.
Web UI: a Devices panel on the Blocking page and a step on each list.
CLI: jarl block step, jarl block group, jarl blocklist --step. API:
/blocking/steps, /blocking/groups. Database schema 8.
Also: copying the state kept empty lists as empty (not nil), so
reverting a changeset no longer adds restore operations for unchanged
blocklists, rules and views.

The Blocking page shows how many queries each blocklist, and the rules
together, blocked in the last 24 hours (with statistics on). The + CNAME

The unit's RestrictAddressFamilies lacked AF_NETLINK, which listing the
host's addresses needs, so the name server checks didn't know this
server's own addresses: the Name servers tab queried them like another
server's, and the delegation check didn't sign them with the view key.
Allow AF_NETLINK, and fall back to /proc/net without it.

Each view's match-clients starts with "key jarl-view-NAME" (after
"!key" for the views listed after it), so a query signed with a view's
key lands in that view from any address. The secrets are derived from a
random seed in Jarl's database. The delegation check signs its queries
to this server's own addresses with the key of the zone's view: before,
they got whichever view matched the server's address, usually internal.
jarl view key / GET /views/{id}/key show a key for dig -k (tsig:write,
audited). jarl-view- key names are reserved; the importer drops view
keys from a configuration Jarl wrote.

- Server statistics: named's memory and CPU (from /proc), cache size,

- Blocking can be paused until resumed (jarl block pause indefinitely,
"Until I resume", {"indefinitely": true}).
Changed:
- List options (allow-transfer, forwarders, ...) get their braces added
when given without them.
- The dashboard lists named-checkconf's warnings about the running
configuration; the CLI prints them after an apply.
- Stats page: tile and card rows fill their width, and the queries and
failed answers charts share margins so their time axes line up.
- Dashboard: options have their own tile.
