Notable new features: * Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm keys and signatures in DNSSEC are now supported per RFC 6605. [RT #21918] * Introduces a new tool "dnssec-verify" that validates a signed zone, checking for the correctness of signatures and NSEC/NSEC3 chains. [RT #23673] * BIND now recognizes the TLSA resource record type, created to support IETF DANE (DNS-based Authentication of Named Entities) [RT #28989] * The new "inline-signing" option, in combination with the "auto-dnssec" option that was introduced in BIND 9.7, allows named to sign zones completely transparently.

<title>DESCRIPTION</title>
|
|
<para><command>dnssec-keyfromlabel</command>
|
|
gets keys with the given label from a crypto hardware and builds
|
|
key files for DNSSEC (Secure DNS), as defined in RFC 2535
|
|
and RFC 4034.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
The <option>name</option> of the key is specified on the command
|
|
line. This must match the name of the zone for which the key is
|
|
being generated.

<para>
|
|
Selects the cryptographic algorithm. The value of
|
|
<option>algorithm</option> must be one of RSAMD5, RSASHA1,
|
|
DSA, NSEC3RSASHA1, NSEC3DSA, RSASHA256, RSASHA512, ECCGOST,
|
|
ECDSAP256SHA256 or ECDSAP384SHA384.
|
|
These values are case insensitive.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
If no algorithm is specified, then RSASHA1 will be used by
|
|
default, unless the <option>-3</option> option is specified,
|
|
in which case NSEC3RSASHA1 will be used instead. (If
|
|
<option>-3</option> is used and an algorithm is specified,
|
|
that algorithm will be checked for compatibility with NSEC3.)
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Note 1: that for DNSSEC, RSASHA1 is a mandatory to implement
|
|
algorithm, and DSA is recommended.

Note 2: DH automatically sets the -k flag.

Use an NSEC3-capable algorithm to generate a DNSSEC key.

set on the command line, NSEC3RSASHA1 will be used by
|
|
default.

|
|
zone key (KEY/DNSKEY)), HOST or ENTITY (for a key associated with
|
|
a host (KEY)),

Compatibility mode: generates an old-style key, without

any metadata. By default, <command>dnssec-keyfromlabel</command>
|
|
will include the key's creation date in the metadata stored
|
|
with the private key, and other dates may be set there as well
|
|
(publication date, activation date, etc). Keys that include
|
|
this data may be incompatible with older versions of BIND; the

<option>-C</option> option suppresses them.

Dates can be expressed in the format YYYYMMDD or YYYYMMDDHHMMSS.
|
|
If the argument begins with a '+' or '-', it is interpreted as
|
|
an offset from the present time. For convenience, if such an offset
|
|
is followed by one of the suffixes 'y', 'mo', 'w', 'd', 'h', or 'mi',
|
|
then the offset is computed in years (defined as 365 24-hour days,
|
|
ignoring leap years), months (defined as 30 24-hour days), weeks,
|
|
days, hours, or minutes, respectively. Without a suffix, the offset
|
|
is computed in seconds.
