f5c27ecceb6dcba6ad8b75172fe5f9823d7a6d42Tinderbox User abort the DNSSEC validation process and treat the data as
f5c27ecceb6dcba6ad8b75172fe5f9823d7a6d42Tinderbox User insecure rather than bogus. This continues until the
f5c27ecceb6dcba6ad8b75172fe5f9823d7a6d42Tinderbox User NTA's lifetime is elapsed, or until the server is

61ab11c0ec845606f85452b2c9f2e223772aae00Tinderbox User An existing NTA can be removed by using the
61ab11c0ec845606f85452b2c9f2e223772aae00Tinderbox User An NTA's lifetime can be specified with the
61ab11c0ec845606f85452b2c9f2e223772aae00Tinderbox User <code class="option">-lifetime</code> option. TTL-style
61ab11c0ec845606f85452b2c9f2e223772aae00Tinderbox User suffixes can be used to specify the lifetime in
61ab11c0ec845606f85452b2c9f2e223772aae00Tinderbox User seconds, minutes, or hours. If the specified NTA
61ab11c0ec845606f85452b2c9f2e223772aae00Tinderbox User already exists, its lifetime will be updated to the
61ab11c0ec845606f85452b2c9f2e223772aae00Tinderbox User new value. Setting <code class="option">lifetime</code> to zero
61ab11c0ec845606f85452b2c9f2e223772aae00Tinderbox User is equivalent to <code class="option">-remove</code>.
61ab11c0ec845606f85452b2c9f2e223772aae00Tinderbox User If <code class="option">-dump</code> is used, any other arguments
61ab11c0ec845606f85452b2c9f2e223772aae00Tinderbox User are ignored, and a list of existing NTAs is printed
61ab11c0ec845606f85452b2c9f2e223772aae00Tinderbox User (note that this may include NTAs that are expired but
61ab11c0ec845606f85452b2c9f2e223772aae00Tinderbox User have not yet been cleaned up).
61ab11c0ec845606f85452b2c9f2e223772aae00Tinderbox User Normally, <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> will periodically
61ab11c0ec845606f85452b2c9f2e223772aae00Tinderbox User test to see whether data below an NTA can now be
61ab11c0ec845606f85452b2c9f2e223772aae00Tinderbox User validated (see the <code class="option">nta-recheck</code> option
61ab11c0ec845606f85452b2c9f2e223772aae00Tinderbox User in the Administrator Reference Manual for details).
61ab11c0ec845606f85452b2c9f2e223772aae00Tinderbox User If data can be validated, then the NTA is regarded as
61ab11c0ec845606f85452b2c9f2e223772aae00Tinderbox User no longer necessary, and will be allowed to expire
61ab11c0ec845606f85452b2c9f2e223772aae00Tinderbox User early. The <code class="option">-force</code> overrides this
61ab11c0ec845606f85452b2c9f2e223772aae00Tinderbox User behavior and forces an NTA to persist for its entire
61ab11c0ec845606f85452b2c9f2e223772aae00Tinderbox User lifetime, regardless of whether data could be
61ab11c0ec845606f85452b2c9f2e223772aae00Tinderbox User validated if the NTA were not present.
61ab11c0ec845606f85452b2c9f2e223772aae00Tinderbox User All of these options can be shortened, i.e., to
