95b6b97ae0942ceb8244693c3d68d2b396af9960Andreas Gustafsson signing algorithm that will be used with this key; for

95b6b97ae0942ceb8244693c3d68d2b396af9960Andreas Gustafsson example, NSEC3RSASHA1 maps to RSA, and ECDSAP256SHA256 maps

95b6b97ae0942ceb8244693c3d68d2b396af9960Andreas Gustafsson to ECC. The default class is "RSA".
