1N/A <para><command>dnssec-verify</command>
1N/A verifies that a zone is fully signed for each algorithm found
1N/A in the DNSKEY RRset for the zone, and that the NSEC / NSEC3
1N/A chains are complete.

1N/A <para>
1N/A When BIND is built with OpenSSL PKCS#11 support, this defaults
1N/A to the string "pkcs11", which identifies an OpenSSL engine
1N/A that can drive a cryptographic accelerator or hardware service
1N/A module. When BIND is built with native PKCS#11 cryptography
1N/A (--enable-native-pkcs11), it defaults to the path of the PKCS#11
1N/A provider library specified via "--with-pkcs11".

1N/A The format of the input zone file.
1N/A Possible formats are <command>"text"</command> (default)
1N/A and <command>"raw"</command>.
1N/A This option is primarily intended to be used for dynamic
1N/A signed zones so that the dumped zone file in a non-text
1N/A format containing updates can be verified independently.
1N/A The use of this option does not make much sense for
1N/A non-dynamic zones.

1N/A Only verify that the DNSKEY RRset is signed with key-signing
1N/A keys. Without this flag, it is assumed that the DNSKEY RRset
1N/A will be signed by all active keys. When this flag is set,
1N/A it will not be an error if the DNSKEY RRset is not signed
1N/A by zone-signing keys. This corresponds to the <option>-x</option>
1N/A option in <command>dnssec-signzone</command>.

<listitem>
<para>
Ignore the KSK flag on the keys when determining whether
the zone if correctly signed. Without this flag it is
assumed that there will be a non-revoked, self-signed
DNSKEY with the KSK flag set for each algorithm and
that RRsets other than DNSKEY RRset will be signed with
a different DNSKEY without the KSK flag set.
</para>
<para>
With this flag set, we only require that for each algorithm,
there will be at least one non-revoked, self-signed DNSKEY,
regardless of the KSK flag state, and that other RRsets
will be signed by a non-revoked key for the same algorithm
that includes the self-signed key; the same key may be used
for both purposes. This corresponds to the <option>-z</option>
option in <command>dnssec-signzone</command>.
