36 <span><strong class="command">nsec3hash</strong></span> generates an NSEC3 hash based on
37 a set of NSEC3 parameters. This can be used to check the validity
38 of NSEC3 records in a signed zone.
41 <div class="refsect1" lang="en">
42 <a name="id2543380"></a><h2>ARGUMENTS</h2>
43 <div class="variablelist"><dl>
44 <dt><span class="term">salt</span></dt>
46 The salt provided to the hash algorithm.
48 <dt><span class="term">algorithm</span></dt>
50 A number indicating the hash algorithm. Currently the
51 only supported hash algorithm for NSEC3 is SHA-1, which is
52 indicated by the number 1; consequently "1" is the only
53 useful value for this argument.
55 <dt><span class="term">iterations</span></dt>
57 The number of additional times the hash should be performed.
59 <dt><span class="term">domain</span></dt>
61 The domain name to be hashed.
