The +private key file can be used for DNSSEC signing of zone data as if it +were a conventional signing key created by \fBdnssec\-keygen\fP, but the +key material is stored within the HSM and the actual signing takes +place there. +.sp +The \fBname\fP of the key is specified on the command line. This must +match the name of the zone for which the key is being generated. +.SH OPTIONS +.INDENT 0.0 +.TP +.B \fB\-a algorithm\fP +This option selects the cryptographic algorithm. The value of \fBalgorithm\fP must +be one of RSASHA1, NSEC3RSASHA1, RSASHA256, RSASHA512, +ECDSAP256SHA256, ECDSAP384SHA384, ED25519, or ED448. +.sp +These values are case\-insensitive. In some cases, abbreviations are +supported, such as ECDSA256 for ECDSAP256SHA256 and ECDSA384 for +ECDSAP384SHA384. If RSASHA1 is specified along with the \fB\-3\fP +option, then NSEC3RSASHA1 is used instead. +.sp +This option is mandatory except when using the +\fB\-S\fP option, which copies the algorithm from the predecessory key. +.sp +Changed in version 9.12.0: The default value RSASHA1 for newly generated keys was removed. + +.TP +.B \fB\-3\fP +This option uses an NSEC3\-capable algorithm to generate a DNSSEC key. If this +option is used with an algorithm that has both NSEC and NSEC3 +versions, then the NSEC3 version is used; for example, +\fBdnssec\-keygen \-3a RSASHA1\fP specifies the NSEC3RSASHA1 algorithm. +.TP +.B \fB\-E engine\fP +This option specifies the cryptographic hardware to use. +.sp +When BIND 9 is built with OpenSSL, this needs to be set to the OpenSSL +engine identifier that drives the cryptographic accelerator or +hardware service module (usually \fBpkcs11\fP). When BIND is +built with native PKCS#11 cryptography (\fB\-\-enable\-native\-pkcs11\fP), it +defaults to the path of the PKCS#11 provider library specified via +\fB\-\-with\-pkcs11\fP\&. +.TP +.B \fB\-l label\fP +This option specifies the label for a key pair in the crypto hardware. +.sp +When BIND 9 is built with OpenSSL\-based PKCS#11 support, the label is +an arbitrary string that identifies a particular key. It may be +preceded by an optional OpenSSL engine name, followed by a colon, as +in \fBpkcs11:keylabel\fP\&. +.sp +When BIND 9 is built with native PKCS#11 support, the label is a +PKCS#11 URI string in the format +\fBpkcs11:keyword\e =value[;\e keyword\e =value;...]\fP\&. Keywords +include \fBtoken\fP, which identifies the HSM; \fBobject\fP, which identifies +the key; and \fBpin\-source\fP, which identifies a file from which the +HSM\(aqs PIN code can be obtained. The label is stored in the +on\-disk \fBprivate\fP file. +.sp +If the label contains a \fBpin\-source\fP field, tools using the +generated key files are able to use the HSM for signing and other +operations without any need for an operator to manually enter a PIN. +Note: Making the HSM\(aqs PIN accessible in this manner may reduce the +security advantage of using an HSM; use caution +with this feature. +.TP +.B \fB\-n nametype\fP +This option specifies the owner type of the key. The value of \fBnametype\fP must +either be ZONE (for a DNSSEC zone key (KEY/DNSKEY)), HOST or ENTITY +(for a key associated with a host (KEY)), USER (for a key associated +with a user (KEY)), or OTHER (DNSKEY). These values are +case\-insensitive. +.TP +.B \fB\-C\fP +This option enables compatibility mode, which generates an old\-style key, without any metadata. +By default, \fBdnssec\-keyfromlabel\fP includes the key\(aqs creation +date in the metadata stored with the private key; other dates may +be set there as well, including publication date, activation date, etc. Keys +that include this data may be incompatible with older versions of +BIND; the \fB\-C\fP option suppresses them. +.TP +.B \fB\-c class\fP +This option indicates that the DNS record containing the key should have the +specified class. If not specified, class IN is used. +.TP +.B \fB\-f flag\fP +This option sets the specified flag in the \fBflag\fP field of the KEY/DNSKEY record. +The only recognized flags are KSK (Key\-Signing Key) and REVOKE. +.TP +.B \fB\-G\fP +This option generates a key, but does not publish it or sign with it. This option is +incompatible with \fB\-P\fP and \fB\-A\fP\&. +.TP +.B \fB\-h\fP +This option prints a short summary of the options and arguments to +\fBdnssec\-keyfromlabel\fP\&. +.TP +.B \fB\-K directory\fP +This option sets the directory in which the key files are to be written. +.TP +.B \fB\-k\fP +This option generates KEY records rather than DNSKEY records. +.TP +.B \fB\-L\fP ttl +This option sets the default TTL to use for this key when it is converted into a +DNSKEY RR. This is the TTL used when the key is imported into a zone, +unless there was already a DNSKEY RRset in +place, in which case the existing TTL would take precedence. Setting +the default TTL to \fB0\fP or \fBnone\fP removes it. +.TP +.B \fB\-p protocol\fP +This option sets the protocol value for the key. The protocol is a number between +0 and 255. The default is 3 (DNSSEC). Other possible values for this +argument are listed in \fI\%RFC 2535\fP and its successors. +.TP +.B \fB\-S key\fP +This option generates a key as an explicit successor to an existing key. The name, +algorithm, size, and type of the key are set to match the +predecessor. The activation date of the new key is set to the +inactivation date of the existing one. The publication date is +set to the activation date minus the prepublication interval, which +defaults to 30 days. +.TP +.B \fB\-t type\fP +This option indicates the type of the key. \fBtype\fP must be one of AUTHCONF, +NOAUTHCONF, NOAUTH, or NOCONF. The default is AUTHCONF. AUTH refers +to the ability to authenticate data, and CONF to the ability to encrypt +data. +.TP +.B \fB\-v level\fP +This option sets the debugging level. +.TP +.B \fB\-V\fP +This option prints version information. +.TP +.B \fB\-y\fP +This option allows DNSSEC key files to be generated even if the key ID would +collide with that of an existing key, in the event of either key +being revoked. (This is only safe to enable if +\fI\%RFC 5011\fP trust anchor maintenance is not used with either of the keys +involved.) +.UNINDENT +.SH TIMING OPTIONS +.sp +Dates can be expressed in the format YYYYMMDD or YYYYMMDDHHMMSS. If the +argument begins with a \fB+\fP or \fB\-\fP, it is interpreted as an offset from +the present time. For convenience, if such an offset is followed by one +of the suffixes \fBy\fP, \fBmo\fP, \fBw\fP, \fBd\fP, \fBh\fP, or \fBmi\fP, 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. To +explicitly prevent a date from being set, use \fBnone\fP or \fBnever\fP\&. +.INDENT 0.0 +.TP +.B \fB\-P date/offset\fP +This option sets the date on which a key is to be published to the zone. After +that date, the key is included in the zone but is not used +to sign it. If not set, and if the \fB\-G\fP option has not been used, the +default is the current date. +.TP +.B \fB\-P sync date/offset\fP +This option sets the date on which CDS and CDNSKEY records that match this key +are to be published to the zone. +.TP +.B \fB\-A date/offset\fP +This option sets the date on which the key is to be activated. After that date, +the key is included in the zone and used to sign it. If not set, +and if the \fB\-G\fP option has not been used, the default is the current date. +.TP +.B \fB\-R date/offset\fP +This option sets the date on which the key is to be revoked. After that date, the +key is flagged as revoked. It is included in the zone and +is used to sign it. +.TP +.B \fB\-I date/offset\fP +This option sets the date on which the key is to be retired. After that date, the +key is still included in the zone, but it is not used to +sign it. +.TP +.B \fB\-D date/offset\fP +This option sets the date on which the key is to be deleted. After that date, the +key is no longer included in the zone. (However, it may remain in the key +repository.) +.TP +.B \fB\-D sync date/offset\fP +This option sets the date on which the CDS and CDNSKEY records that match this +key are to be deleted. +.TP +.B \fB\-i interval\fP +This option sets the prepublication interval for a key. If set, then the +publication and activation dates must be separated by at least this +much time. If the activation date is specified but the publication +date is not, the publication date defaults to this much time +before the activation date; conversely, if the publication date is +specified but not the activation date, activation is set to +this much time after publication. +.sp +If the key is being created as an explicit successor to another key, +then the default prepublication interval is 30 days; otherwise it is +zero. +.sp +As with date offsets, if the argument is followed by one of the +suffixes \fBy\fP, \fBmo\fP, \fBw\fP, \fBd\fP, \fBh\fP, or \fBmi\fP, the interval is +measured in years, months, weeks, days, hours, or minutes, +respectively. Without a suffix, the interval is measured in seconds. +.UNINDENT +.SH GENERATED KEY FILES +.sp +When \fBdnssec\-keyfromlabel\fP completes successfully, it prints a string +of the form \fBKnnnn.+aaa+iiiii\fP to the standard output. This is an +identification string for the key files it has generated. +.INDENT 0.0 +.IP \(bu 2 +\fBnnnn\fP is the key name. +.IP \(bu 2 +\fBaaa\fP is the numeric representation of the algorithm. +.IP \(bu 2 +\fBiiiii\fP is the key identifier (or footprint). +.UNINDENT +.sp +\fBdnssec\-keyfromlabel\fP creates two files, with names based on the +printed string. \fBKnnnn.+aaa+iiiii.key\fP contains the public key, and +\fBKnnnn.+aaa+iiiii.private\fP contains the private key. +.sp +The \fB\&.key\fP file contains a DNS KEY record that can be inserted into a +zone file (directly or with an $INCLUDE statement). +.sp +The \fB\&.private\fP file contains algorithm\-specific fields. For obvious +security reasons, this file does not have general read permission. +.SH SEE ALSO +.sp +\fBdnssec\-keygen(8)\fP, \fBdnssec\-signzone(8)\fP, BIND 9 Administrator Reference Manual, +\fI\%RFC 4034\fP, \fI\%RFC 7512\fP\&. +.SH AUTHOR +Internet Systems Consortium +.SH COPYRIGHT +2023, Internet Systems Consortium +.\" Generated by docutils manpage writer. +. |
