|
|
key files for DNSSEC (Secure DNS), as defined in RFC 2535
|
|
and RFC 4034.

<para>
|
|
Selects the cryptographic algorithm. The value of
|
|
<option>algorithm</option> must be one of RSAMD5 (RSA)
|
|
or RSASHA1, DSA, NSEC3RSASHA1, NSEC3DSA or DH (Diffie Hellman).
|
|
These values are case insensitive.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Note 1: that for DNSSEC, RSASHA1 is a mandatory to implement
|
|
algorithm, and DSA is recommended.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Note 2: DH automatically sets the -k flag.

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

<title>GENERATED KEY FILES</title>
|
|
<para>
|
|
When <command>dnssec-keyfromlabel</command> completes
|
|
successfully,
|
|
it prints a string of the form <filename>Knnnn.+aaa+iiiii</filename>
|
|
to the standard output. This is an identification string for
|
|
the key files it has generated.

</para>

<para><filename>aaa</filename> is the numeric representation

<para><command>dnssec-keyfromlabel</command>

creates two files, with names based

on the printed string. <filename>Knnnn.+aaa+iiiii.key</filename>
|

contains the public key, and

<filename>Knnnn.+aaa+iiiii.private</filename> contains the
|
|
private
|
|
key.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
The <filename>.key</filename> file contains a DNS KEY record

that

can be inserted into a zone file (directly or with a $INCLUDE
|
|
statement).
|
|
</para>
|

<para>

The <filename>.private</filename> file contains algorithm
|
|
specific
|

fields. For obvious security reasons, this file does not have
|
|
general read permission.
