+dnssec-cds - change DS records for a child zone based on CDS/CDNSKEY
+--------------------------------------------------------------------

+Description
+~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The ``dnssec-cds`` command changes DS records at a delegation point
+based on CDS or CDNSKEY records published in the child zone. If both CDS
+and CDNSKEY records are present in the child zone, the CDS is preferred.
+This enables a child zone to inform its parent of upcoming changes to
+its key-signing keys (KSKs); by polling periodically with ``dnssec-cds``, the
+parent can keep the DS records up-to-date and enable automatic rolling
+of KSKs.
+
+Two input files are required. The ``-f child-file`` option specifies a
+file containing the child's CDS and/or CDNSKEY records, plus RRSIG and
+DNSKEY records so that they can be authenticated. The ``-d path`` option
+specifies the location of a file containing the current DS records. For
+example, this could be a ``dsset-`` file generated by
+``dnssec-signzone``, or the output of ``dnssec-dsfromkey``, or the
+output of a previous run of ``dnssec-cds``.
+
+The ``dnssec-cds`` command uses special DNSSEC validation logic
+specified by :rfc:`7344`. It requires that the CDS and/or CDNSKEY records
+be validly signed by a key represented in the existing DS records. This
+is typically the pre-existing KSK.
+
+For protection against replay attacks, the signatures on the child
+records must not be older than they were on a previous run of
+``dnssec-cds``. Their age is obtained from the modification time of the
+``dsset-`` file, or from the ``-s`` option.
+
+To protect against breaking the delegation, ``dnssec-cds`` ensures that
+the DNSKEY RRset can be verified by every key algorithm in the new DS
+RRset, and that the same set of keys are covered by every DS digest
+type.
+
+By default, replacement DS records are written to the standard output;
+with the ``-i`` option the input file is overwritten in place. The
+replacement DS records are the same as the existing records, when no
+change is required. The output can be empty if the CDS/CDNSKEY records
+specify that the child zone wants to be insecure.
+
+.. warning::
+
+ Be careful not to delete the DS records when ``dnssec-cds`` fails!
+
+Alternatively, ``dnssec-cds -u`` writes an ``nsupdate`` script to the
+standard output. The ``-u`` and ``-i`` options can be used together to
+maintain a ``dsset-`` file as well as emit an ``nsupdate`` script.
+
+Options
+~~~~~~~
+
+``-a algorithm``
+ This option specifies a digest algorithm to use when converting CDNSKEY records to
+ DS records. This option can be repeated, so that multiple DS records
+ are created for each CDNSKEY record. This option has no effect when
+ using CDS records.
+
+ The algorithm must be one of SHA-1, SHA-256, or SHA-384. These values
+ are case-insensitive, and the hyphen may be omitted. If no algorithm
+ is specified, the default is SHA-256.
+
+``-c class``
+ This option specifies the DNS class of the zones.
+
+``-D``
+ This option generates DS records from CDNSKEY records if both CDS and CDNSKEY
+ records are present in the child zone. By default CDS records are
+ preferred.
+
+``-d path``
+ This specifies the location of the parent DS records. The path can be the name of a file
+ containing the DS records; if it is a directory, ``dnssec-cds``
+ looks for a ``dsset-`` file for the domain inside the directory.
+
+ To protect against replay attacks, child records are rejected if they
+ were signed earlier than the modification time of the ``dsset-``
+ file. This can be adjusted with the ``-s`` option.
+
+``-f child-file``
+ This option specifies the file containing the child's CDS and/or CDNSKEY records, plus its
+ DNSKEY records and the covering RRSIG records, so that they can be
+ authenticated.
+
+ The examples below describe how to generate this file.
+
+``-iextension``
+ This option updates the ``dsset-`` file in place, instead of writing DS records to
+ the standard output.
+
+ There must be no space between the ``-i`` and the extension. If
+ no extension is provided, the old ``dsset-`` is discarded. If an
+ extension is present, a backup of the old ``dsset-`` file is kept
+ with the extension appended to its filename.
+
+ To protect against replay attacks, the modification time of the
+ ``dsset-`` file is set to match the signature inception time of the
+ child records, provided that it is later than the file's current
+ modification time.
+
+``-s start-time``
+ This option specifies the date and time after which RRSIG records become
+ acceptable. This can be either an absolute or a relative time. An
+ absolute start time is indicated by a number in YYYYMMDDHHMMSS
+ notation; 20170827133700 denotes 13:37:00 UTC on August 27th, 2017. A
+ time relative to the ``dsset-`` file is indicated with ``-N``, which is N
+ seconds before the file modification time. A time relative to the
+ current time is indicated with ``now+N``.
+
+ If no start-time is specified, the modification time of the
+ ``dsset-`` file is used.
+
+``-T ttl``
+ This option specifies a TTL to be used for new DS records. If not specified, the
+ default is the TTL of the old DS records. If they had no explicit TTL,
+ the new DS records also have no explicit TTL.
+
+``-u``
+ This option writes an ``nsupdate`` script to the standard output, instead of
+ printing the new DS reords. The output is empty if no change is
+ needed.
+
+ Note: The TTL of new records needs to be specified: it can be done in the
+ original ``dsset-`` file, with the ``-T`` option, or using the
+ ``nsupdate`` ``ttl`` command.
+
+``-V``
+ This option prints version information.
+
+``-v level``
+ This option sets the debugging level. Level 1 is intended to be usefully verbose
+ for general users; higher levels are intended for developers.
+
+``domain``
+ This indicates the name of the delegation point/child zone apex.
+
+Exit Status
+~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The ``dnssec-cds`` command exits 0 on success, or non-zero if an error
+occurred.
+
+If successful, the DS records may or may not need to be
+changed.
+
+Examples
+~~~~~~~~
+
+Before running ``dnssec-signzone``, ensure that the delegations
+are up-to-date by running ``dnssec-cds`` on every ``dsset-`` file.
+
+To fetch the child records required by ``dnssec-cds``, invoke
+``dig`` as in the script below. It is acceptable if the ``dig`` fails, since
+``dnssec-cds`` performs all the necessary checking.
+
+::
+
+ for f in dsset-*
+ do
+ d=${f#dsset-}
+ dig +dnssec +noall +answer $d DNSKEY $d CDNSKEY $d CDS |
+ dnssec-cds -i -f /dev/stdin -d $f $d
+ done
+
+When the parent zone is automatically signed by ``named``,
+``dnssec-cds`` can be used with ``nsupdate`` to maintain a delegation as follows.
+The ``dsset-`` file allows the script to avoid having to fetch and
+validate the parent DS records, and it maintains the replay attack
+protection time.
+
+::
+
+ dig +dnssec +noall +answer $d DNSKEY $d CDNSKEY $d CDS |
+ dnssec-cds -u -i -f /dev/stdin -d $f $d |
+ nsupdate -l
