Synopsis

                  dnssec-makekeyset [options] key-identifiers
               

System administration command. Generate a domain keyset from one or more DNS Security keys generated by dnssec-keygen. Keysets can be sent to parent zone administrators to be signed with the zone key. The keyset is written to a file with the name keyset-domainname. For more information on Secure DNS, see DNS and BIND (O’Reilly), or read RFC 2535.

Verify all generated signatures.

-e end-time

Specify the date and time the records will expire. The end-time may be specified in yyyymmddhhmmss notation, or as + N seconds from the start-time. The default is 30 days from start-time.

-h

-p

Use pseudo-random data to sign the zone key.

-r device

Specify the date and time the records become valid. The end-time may be specified in yyyymmddhhmmss notation, or as + N seconds from the current time. The default is the current time.
