Subject: Add something to the ARM (with an example) for using the rndc python module
The only customer-visible evidence that this exists can be found in the BIND significant features matrix in the KB, CHANGES for the 9.11 branch, and in the 9.11.0 release notes: "Added an isc.rndc Python module, which allows rndc commands to be sent from Python programs." The new module can be found in the tarball here: ./bin/python/isc/ It'd be good to have a paragraph about it in the ARM, perhaps with a worked example of usage. I'm also reading with interest: #43435: Add BIND Python stuff to PyPI If we do this, then that should also be mentioned/documented in the ARM. (This feels like something that should be tackled for 9.11.2)
