<A NAME="Usage"><H3>Definition and Usage</H3></A>
|
||
|
|
||
|
The <CODE>trusted-keys</CODE>
|
||
|
statement is for use with DNSSEC-style security, originally specified
|
||
|
in RFC 2065. DNSSEC is meant to
|
||
|
provide three distinct services: key distribution, data origin
|
||
|
authentication, and transaction and request authentication. A
|
||
|
complete description of DNSSEC and its use is beyond the scope of this
|
||
|
document, and readers interested in more information should start with
|
||
|
<A HREF="http://info.internet.isi.edu/in-notes/rfc/files/rfc2065.txt">
|
||
|
RFC 2065</A> and then continue with the
|
||
|
<A HREF="http://www.ietf.org/ids.by.wg/dnssec.html">
|
||
|
Internet Drafts</A>.</P>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<P>Each trusted key is associated with a domain name. Its attributes are
|
||
|
the non-negative integral <VAR>flags</VAR>, <VAR>protocol</VAR>, and
|
||
|
<VAR>algorithm</VAR>, as well as a base-64 encoded string representing
|
||
|
the key.</P>
|
||
|
|
||
|
A trusted key is added when a public key for a non-authoritative zone is
|
||
|
known, but cannot be securely obtained through DNS. This occurs when
|
||
|
a signed zone is a child of an unsigned zone. Adding the trusted
|
||
|
key here allows data signed by that zone to be considered secure.</P>
