NAME
       ds -- generate DNSSEC delegation	signer record

SYNOPSIS
       ds [-d digest] [-t ttl] [-c class] domain keyfile

DESCRIPTION
       ds writes a DNSSEC DS record to standard	output.

       The  record is generated	for the	child zone domain and public key given
       by keyfile.  The	child zone should  have	 a  corresponding  self-signed
       DNSKEY record with the Secure Entry Point (SEP) flag set.

       A  DS record is delegates record	signing	for a sub-zone to a particular
       key, establishing a chain of trust from a parent	zone to	its child.  It
       contains	a signature algorithm identifier, the hash of the public  key,
       and  a "tag" used to identify the key.  It indicates that the signature
       of the DNSKEY RRSet of the child	zone may  be  verified	with  the  de-
       scribed key.

       DS  records  are	 usually configured through a web form provided	by the
       domain registrar.

OPTIONS
       -d      The digest algorithm to use.  The following algorithms are sup-
	       ported:
	          SHA1	(1)
	          SHA256 (2, default)
	          SHA384 (4)

       -a      The signature algorithm to use with the key.  This  option  can
	       be used to disambiguate the hash	used with RSA keys.  Supported
	       algorithms are the same as in dnskey(1).

       -t      The  TTL	 value	of  the	 record.  If not specified, the	TTL is
	       omitted.

       -c      The record class.  Defaults to IN.

EXAMPLES
       Generate	a DS record for	the example.com	EC signing key,	key.pem:

	     $ ds example.com. key.pem
	     example.com.    IN	     DS	     32716 13 2	ffd819c99ed62247e5fa61711a53fc0202a35970ca8ec78d874e2667556c594b
