6 kzonesign - DNSSEC signing utility
7
9 kzonesign [options] -c conf_file zone_name
10
12 This utility reads the zone's zone file, signs the zone according to
13 given configuration, and writes the signed zone file back. An alterna‐
14 tive mode is DNSSEC validation of the given zone. The signing or vali‐
15 dation can run in parallel if enabled in the configuration (see pol‐
16 icy.signing-threads and zone.adjust-threads).

18 Options
19 -c, --config conf_file
20 Knot DNS configuration file (same as for knotd).

22 -o, --outdir dir_name
23 Write the output zone file to the specified directory instead of
24 the configured one.
25
26 -r, --rollover
27 Allow key roll-overs and NSEC3 re-salt. In order to finish pos‐
28 sible KSK submission, set the KSK's active timestamp to now (+0)
29 using keymgr.

31 -v, --verify
32 Instead of (re-)signing the zone, just verify that the zone is
33 correctly signed.

37 was at the time specified by timestamp.
