SUBSCRIBER-ONLY SOFTWARE

ISC is a non-profit organization that exists to support the Internet. Our software is open source because we believe in building a better Internet. We have also created some premium software to offer to our supporters. The Kea core daemons and most of the ISC hooks are open source, but there are two hook libraries (Configuration Backend and Role-Based Access Control) that are only available with an ISC Kea support subscription. BIND 9 support subscribers at certain levels are entitled to use the BIND Subscription Edition, a modified version of the BIND distribution with advanced features.
