RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

This bug is created as a clone of upstream ticket:
https://fedorahosted.org/bind-dyndb-ldap/ticket/157

= Enhancement proposal =
[[http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3597|RFC 3597]] describes mechanism necessary for supporting unknown/new DNS RR types in DNS servers. BIND 9 supports this so should expose this functionality too. It would be a future-proof workaround for cases when someone needs a new type.

= Use case =
Users may want to use new types which are not directly supported by underlying BIND or LDAP schema.

= Proposed implementation =
1 new attribute with sub-type specifying RR type as a number. This attribute should contain data encodedaccording to [[http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3597#section-5|RFC 3597 section 5]].
