da58597f9f9ecb17c4f545c4483a844a363bcc27pjrm <title>DESCRIPTION</title>

da58597f9f9ecb17c4f545c4483a844a363bcc27pjrm <para><command>dnssec-settime</command>

da58597f9f9ecb17c4f545c4483a844a363bcc27pjrm reads a DNSSEC private key file and sets the key timing metadata

da58597f9f9ecb17c4f545c4483a844a363bcc27pjrm as specified by the <option>-P</option>, <option>-A</option>,

da58597f9f9ecb17c4f545c4483a844a363bcc27pjrm <option>-R</option>, <option>-I</option>, and <option>-D</option>

da58597f9f9ecb17c4f545c4483a844a363bcc27pjrm options. The metadata can then be used by

da58597f9f9ecb17c4f545c4483a844a363bcc27pjrm <command>dnssec-signzone</command> or other signing software to

da58597f9f9ecb17c4f545c4483a844a363bcc27pjrm determine when a key is to be published, whether it should be

da58597f9f9ecb17c4f545c4483a844a363bcc27pjrm used for signing a zone, etc.

da58597f9f9ecb17c4f545c4483a844a363bcc27pjrm </para>

da58597f9f9ecb17c4f545c4483a844a363bcc27pjrm <para>

da58597f9f9ecb17c4f545c4483a844a363bcc27pjrm If none of these options is set on the command line,

then <command>dnssec-settime</command> simply prints the key timing

metadata already stored in the key.

</para>

<para>

When key metadata fields are changed, both files of a key

pair (<filename>Knnnn.+aaa+iiiii.key</filename> and

<filename>Knnnn.+aaa+iiiii.private</filename>) are regenerated.

Metadata fields are stored in the private file. A human-readable

description of the metadata is also placed in comments in the key

file. The private file's permissions are always set to be

inaccessible to anyone other than the owner (mode 0600).

<title>OPTIONS</title>

<variablelist>

<varlistentry>

<term>-f</term>

<listitem>

<para>

Force an update of an old-format key with no metadata fields.

Without this option, <command>dnssec-settime</command> will

fail when attempting to update a legacy key. With this option,

the key will be recreated in the new format, but with the

original key data retained. The key's creation date will be

set to the present time. If no other values are specified,

then the key's publication and activation dates will also

be set to the present time.

</para>

</listitem>

</varlistentry>

<varlistentry>

<term>-K <replaceable class="parameter">directory</replaceable></term>

<listitem>

<para>

</para>

</listitem>

</varlistentry>

<varlistentry>

<term>-L <replaceable class="parameter">ttl</replaceable></term>

<listitem>

<para>

Sets the default TTL to use for this key when it is converted

into a DNSKEY RR. If the key is imported into a zone,

this is the TTL that will be used for it, unless there was

already a DNSKEY RRset in place, in which case the existing TTL

would take precedence. If this value is not set and there

is no existing DNSKEY RRset, the TTL will default to the

SOA TTL. Setting the default TTL to <literal>0</literal>

or <literal>none</literal> removes it from the key.

<para>

When BIND is built with OpenSSL PKCS#11 support, this defaults

to the string "pkcs11", which identifies an OpenSSL engine

that can drive a cryptographic accelerator or hardware service

module. When BIND is built with native PKCS#11 cryptography

(--enable-native-pkcs11), it defaults to the path of the PKCS#11

provider library specified via "--with-pkcs11".

<title>TIMING OPTIONS</title>

<para>

Dates can be expressed in the format YYYYMMDD or YYYYMMDDHHMMSS.

If the argument begins with a '+' or '-', it is interpreted as

an offset from the present time. For convenience, if such an offset

is followed by one of the suffixes 'y', 'mo', 'w', 'd', 'h', or 'mi',

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 unset a date, use 'none' or 'never'.

</para>

<variablelist>

<varlistentry>

<term>-P <replaceable class="parameter">date/offset</replaceable></term>

<listitem>

<para>

Sets the date on which a key is to be published to the zone.

After that date, the key will be included in the zone but will

not be used to sign it.

</para>

</listitem>

</varlistentry>

<varlistentry>

<term>-A <replaceable class="parameter">date/offset</replaceable></term>

<listitem>

<para>

Sets the date on which the key is to be activated. After that

date, the key will be included in the zone and used to sign

it.

</para>

</listitem>

</varlistentry>

<varlistentry>

<term>-R <replaceable class="parameter">date/offset</replaceable></term>

<listitem>

<para>

Sets the date on which the key is to be revoked. After that

date, the key will be flagged as revoked. It will be included

in the zone and will be used to sign it.

</para>

</listitem>

</varlistentry>

<varlistentry>

<term>-I <replaceable class="parameter">date/offset</replaceable></term>

<listitem>

<para>

Sets the date on which the key is to be retired. After that

date, the key will still be included in the zone, but it

will not be used to sign it.

</para>

</listitem>

</varlistentry>

<varlistentry>

<term>-D <replaceable class="parameter">date/offset</replaceable></term>

<listitem>

<para>

Sets the date on which the key is to be deleted. After that

date, the key will no longer be included in the zone. (It

may remain in the key repository, however.)

</para>

</listitem>

</varlistentry>

<varlistentry>

<term>-S <replaceable class="parameter">predecessor key</replaceable></term>

<listitem>

<para>

Select a key for which the key being modified will be an

explicit successor. The name, algorithm, size, and type of the

predecessor key must exactly match those of the key being

modified. The activation date of the successor key will be set

to the inactivation date of the predecessor. The publication

date will be set to the activation date minus the prepublication

interval, which defaults to 30 days.

</para>

</listitem>

</varlistentry>

<varlistentry>

<term>-i <replaceable class="parameter">interval</replaceable></term>

<listitem>

<para>

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 isn't, then the publication date will default

to this much time before the activation date; conversely, if

the publication date is specified but activation date isn't,

then activation will be set to this much time after publication.

</para>

<para>

If the key is being set to be an explicit successor to another

key, then the default prepublication interval is 30 days;

otherwise it is zero.

</para>

<para>

As with date offsets, if the argument is followed by one of

the suffixes 'y', 'mo', 'w', 'd', 'h', or 'mi', then the

interval is measured in years, months, weeks, days, hours,

or minutes, respectively. Without a suffix, the interval is

measured in seconds.

<command>dnssec-settime</command> can also be used to print the

<term>-p <replaceable class="parameter">C/P/A/R/I/D/all</replaceable></term>

<listitem>

<para>

Print a specific metadata value or set of metadata values.

The <option>-p</option> option may be followed by one or more

of the following letters to indicate which value or values to print:

<option>C</option> for the creation date,

<option>P</option> for the publication date,

<option>A</option> for the activation date,

<option>R</option> for the revocation date,

<option>I</option> for the inactivation date, or

<option>D</option> for the deletion date.

To print all of the metadata, use <option>-p all</option>.
