46 Specifies the DNS class of the zone.

51 Specifies the cryptographic hardware to use, when applicable.
54 When BIND is built with OpenSSL PKCS#
11 support, this defaults
55 to the string
"pkcs11", which identifies an OpenSSL engine
56 that can drive a cryptographic accelerator or hardware service
57 module. When BIND is built with native PKCS#
11 cryptography
58 (--enable-native-pkcs11), it defaults to the path of the PKCS#
11
59 provider library specified via
"--with-pkcs11".

64 The format of the input zone file.
65 Possible formats are
<span><strong class=
"command">"text"</strong></span> (default)
66 and
<span><strong class=
"command">"raw"</strong></span>.
67 This option is primarily intended to be used for dynamic
68 signed zones so that the dumped zone file in a non-text
69 format containing updates can be verified independently.
70 The use of this option does not make much sense for
73 <dt><span class=
"term">-o
<em class=
"replaceable"><code>origin
</code></em></span></dt>
75 The zone origin. If not specified, the name of the zone file
76 is assumed to be the origin.
78 <dt><span class=

80 Sets the debugging level.

88 Only verify that the DNSKEY RRset is signed with key-signing
89 keys. Without this flag, it is assumed that the DNSKEY RRset
90 will be signed by all active keys. When this flag is set,
91 it will not be an error if the DNSKEY RRset is not signed
92 by zone-signing keys. This corresponds to the
<code class=
"option">-x
</code>
93 option in
<span><strong class=
"command">dnssec-signzone
</strong></span>.
95 <dt><span class=
"term">-z
</span></dt>
98 Ignore the KSK flag on the keys when determining whether
99 the zone if correctly signed. Without this flag it is
100 assumed that there will be a non-revoked, self-signed
101 DNSKEY with the KSK flag set for each algorithm and
102 that RRsets other than DNSKEY RRset will be signed with
103 a different DNSKEY without the KSK flag set.
106 With this flag set, we only require that for each algorithm,
107 there will be at least one non-revoked, self-signed DNSKEY,
108 regardless of the KSK flag state, and that other RRsets
109 will be signed by a non-revoked key for the same algorithm
110 that includes the self-signed key; the same key may be used
111 for both purposes. This corresponds to the
<code class=
"option">-z
</code>
112 option in
<span><strong class=
"command">dnssec-signzone
</strong></span>.
115 <dt><span class=
"term">zonefile

117 The file containing the zone to be signed.
