.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
The \fBkeymgr\fP utility serves for manual key management in Knot DNS server.
.sp
Functions for DNSSEC keys and KASP (Key And Signature Policy)
management are provided.
.sp
The DNSSEC and KASP configuration is stored in a so called KASP database.
The database is backed by LMDB.
.SS Parameters
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
\fIzone_name\fP
Name of the zone the command is executed for.
.UNINDENT
.SS Config options
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
\fB\-c\fP, \fB\-\-config\fP \fIfile\fP
Use a textual configuration file (default is \fB@config_dir@/knot.conf\fP).
.TP
\fB\-C\fP, \fB\-\-confdb\fP \fIdirectory\fP
Use a binary configuration database directory (default is \fB@storage_dir@/confdb\fP).
The default configuration database, if exists, has a preference to the default
configuration file.
.TP
\fB\-D\fP, \fB\-\-dir\fP \fIpath\fP
Use specified KASP database path and default configuration.
.UNINDENT
.SS Options
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
\fB\-t\fP, \fB\-\-tsig\fP \fItsig_name\fP [\fItsig_algorithm\fP [\fItsig_bits\fP]]
Generates a TSIG key for the given name. Optionally the key algorithm can
be specified by its \fI\%name\fP (default: hmac\-sha256) and
a bit length of the key (default: optimal length given by algorithm).
The generated TSIG key is only displayed on \fIstdout\fP:
the command does not create a file, nor include the key in a keystore.
.TP
\fB\-e\fP, \fB\-\-extended\fP
Extended output (listing of keys with full description).
.TP
\fB\-j\fP, \fB\-\-json\fP
Print the zones or keys in JSON format.
.TP
\fB\-l\fP, \fB\-\-list\fP
Print the list of zones that have at least one key stored in the configured KASP
database.
.TP
\fB\-x\fP, \fB\-\-mono\fP
Don\(aqt generate colorized output.
.TP
\fB\-X\fP, \fB\-\-color\fP
Force colorized output in the normal mode.
.TP
\fB\-h\fP, \fB\-\-help\fP
Print the program help.
.TP
\fB\-V\fP, \fB\-\-version\fP
Print the program version.
.UNINDENT
.sp
\fBNOTE:\fP
.INDENT 0.0
.INDENT 3.5
Keymgr runs with the same user privileges as configured for \fI\%knotd\fP\&.
For example, if keymgr is run as \fBroot\fP, but the configured \fI\%user\fP
is \fBknot\fP, it won\(aqt be able to read files (PEM files, KASP database, ...) readable
only by \fBroot\fP\&.
.UNINDENT
.UNINDENT
.SS Commands
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
\fBlist\fP [\fItimestamp_format\fP]
Prints the list of key IDs and parameters of keys belonging to the zone.
.TP
\fBgenerate\fP [\fIarguments\fP\&...]
Generates new DNSSEC key and stores it in KASP database. Prints the key ID.
This action takes some number of arguments (see below). Values for unspecified arguments are taken
from corresponding policy (if \fI\-c\fP or \fI\-C\fP options used) or from Knot policy defaults.
.TP
\fBimport\-bind\fP \fIBIND_key_file\fP
Imports a BIND\-style key into KASP database (converting it to PEM format).
Takes one argument: path to BIND key file (private or public, but both MUST exist).
.TP
\fBimport\-pub\fP \fIBIND_pubkey_file\fP
Imports a public key into KASP database. This key won\(aqt be rolled over nor used for signing.
Takes one argument: path to BIND public key file.
.TP
\fBimport\-pem\fP \fIPEM_file\fP [\fIarguments\fP\&...]
Imports a DNSSEC key from PEM file. The key parameters (same as for the generate action) need to be
specified (mainly algorithm, timers...) because they are not contained in the PEM format.
.TP
\fBimport\-pkcs11\fP \fIkey_id\fP [\fIarguments\fP\&...]
Imports a DNSSEC key from PKCS #11 storage. The key parameters (same as for the generate action) need to be
specified (mainly algorithm, timers...) because they are not available. In fact, no key
data is imported, only KASP database metadata is created.
.TP
\fBnsec3\-salt\fP [\fInew_salt\fP]
Prints the current NSEC3 salt used for signing. If \fInew_salt\fP is specified, the salt is overwritten.
The salt is printed and expected in hexadecimal, or dash if empty.
.TP
\fBlocal\-serial\fP [\fInew_serial\fP]
Print SOA serial stored in KASP database when using on\-secondary DNSSEC signing.
If \fInew_serial\fP is specified, the serial is overwritten. After updating the serial, expire the zone
(\fBzone\-purge +expire +zonefile +journal\fP) if the server is running, or remove corresponding zone file
and journal contents if the server is stopped.
.TP
\fBmaster\-serial\fP [\fInew_serial\fP]
Print SOA serial of the remote master stored in KASP database when using on\-secondary DNSSEC signing.
If \fInew_serial\fP is specified, the serial is overwritten (not recommended).
.TP
\fBset\fP \fIkey_spec\fP [\fIarguments\fP\&...]
Changes a timing argument (or ksk/zsk) of an existing key to a new value. \fIKey_spec\fP is either the
key tag or a prefix of the key ID, with an optional \fI[id=|keytag=]\fP prefix; \fIarguments\fP
are like for \fBgenerate\fP, but just the related ones.
.TP
\fBds\fP [\fIkey_spec\fP]
Generate DS record (all digest algorithms together) for specified key. \fIKey_spec\fP
is like for \fBset\fP, if unspecified, all KSKs are used.
.TP
\fBdnskey\fP [\fIkey_spec\fP]
Generate DNSKEY record for specified key. \fIKey_spec\fP
is like for \fBds\fP, if unspecified, all KSKs are used.
.TP
\fBdelete\fP \fIkey_spec\fP
Remove the specified key from zone. If the key was not shared, it is also deleted from keystore.
.TP
\fBshare\fP \fIkey_ID\fP \fIzone_from\fP
Import a key (specified by full key ID) from another zone as shared. After this, the key is
owned by both zones equally.
.UNINDENT
.SS Keystore commands
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
\fBkeystore\-test\fP
Conduct some tests on the specified keystore. For each algorithm, key generation,
import, removal, and use (signing and verification) are tested.
Use a configured \fIkeystore_id\fP or \fB\-\fP for the default.
.TP
\fBkeystore\-bench\fP [\fInum_threads\fP]
Conduct a signing benchmark on the specified keystore.
Random blocks of data are signed by the selected number of threads
(default is 1) in a loop, and the average number of signing operations per
second for each algorithm is returned.
Use a configured \fIkeystore_id\fP or \fB\-\fP for the default.
