OS-Bind GUI bug or feature

[ilya_rt]

Hi!
May be someone can help me to clear details of Bind zone management via GUI.
I'm trying to add secondary zone to Bind DNS with GUI.
There is <Primary IP> form field and it is intended for IP addresses of master DNS server, ok that's good. It manages this variable

Code Select Expand

primaries { 1.2.3.4; };
in file /usr/local/etc/namedb/named.conf

While I'm adding just an IP address into this field everything works great. But when I want to add port it does not work. According to Bind man <primaries> can be list of address with port numbers and other attributes https://bind9.readthedocs.io/en/latest/reference.html#namedconf-statement-primaries
If I manually change config file its ok, named works with non standard ports, but until I change something via GUI. Then GUI rewrites <primaries> to its values without port number and this breaks things.

So is this ok behavior or should I file bugreport somewhere?

More like a feature request, IMHO, but please do file an issue on Github.
