4.5 Using DNS UPDATE

As noted in examples for master and slave, it is possible to accept DNS UPDATE messages. When the zone is configured as a slave and DNS UPDATE messages is accepted, server forwards the message to its primary master specified by xfr-in directive. When it receives the response from primary master, it forwards it back to the originator. This finishes the transaction.

However, if the zone is configured as master (i.e. not having any xfr-in directive), it accepts such an UPDATE and processes it.
