da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw reads a DNSSEC private key file and sets the key timing metadata
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw as specified by the <code class="option">-P</code>, <code class="option">-A</code>,
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw <code class="option">-R</code>, <code class="option">-I</code>, and <code class="option">-D</code>
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw options. The metadata can then be used by
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw <span><strong class="command">dnssec-signzone</strong></span> or other signing software to
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw determine when a key is to be published, whether it should be
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw used for signing a zone, etc.
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw If none of these options is set on the command line,
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw then <span><strong class="command">dnssec-settime</strong></span> simply prints the key timing
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw metadata already stored in the key.
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw When key metadata fields are changed, both files of a key
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw pair (<code class="filename">Knnnn.+aaa+iiiii.key</code> and
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw <code class="filename">Knnnn.+aaa+iiiii.private</code>) are regenerated.
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw Metadata fields are stored in the private file. A human-readable
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw description of the metadata is also placed in comments in the key
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw file. The private file's permissions are always set to be
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw inaccessible to anyone other than the owner (mode 0600).
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw Force an update of an old-format key with no metadata fields.
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw Without this option, <span><strong class="command">dnssec-settime</strong></span> will
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw fail when attempting to update a legacy key. With this option,
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw the key will be recreated in the new format, but with the
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw original key data retained. The key's creation date will be
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw set to the present time. If no other values are specified,
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw then the key's publication and activation dates will also
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw be set to the present time.

da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw<dt><span class="term">-L <em class="replaceable"><code>ttl</code></em></span></dt>
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw Sets the default TTL to use for this key when it is converted
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw into a DNSKEY RR. If the key is imported into a zone,
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw this is the TTL that will be used for it, unless there was
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw already a DNSKEY RRset in place, in which case the existing TTL
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw would take precedence. Setting the default TTL to
da6c28aaf62fa55f0fdb8004aa40f88f23bf53f0amw <code class="literal">0</code> or <code class="literal">none</code> removes it.
