2a31bd531072824ef252c18303859d6af7451b00Francis Dupont signs a zone. It generates
2a31bd531072824ef252c18303859d6af7451b00Francis Dupont NSEC and RRSIG records and produces a signed version of the
2a31bd531072824ef252c18303859d6af7451b00Francis Dupont zone. The security status of delegations from the signed zone
2a31bd531072824ef252c18303859d6af7451b00Francis Dupont (that is, whether the child zones are secure or not) is
