BIND includes a utility called rndc that allows you to administer the named daemon, locally or remotely, with command line statements. The rndc program uses the /etc/rndc.conf file for its configuration options, which can be overridden with command line options.

It is a BIND control utility which enables you to control the operation of a name server.
