53 <p><span class="command"><strong>dnssec-verify</strong></span>
54 verifies that a zone is fully signed for each algorithm found
55 in the DNSKEY RRset for the zone, and that the NSEC / NSEC3

61 <div class="variablelist"><dl class="variablelist">
62 <dt><span class="term">-c <em class="replaceable"><code>class</code></em></span></dt>
64 Specifies the DNS class of the zone.
66 <dt><span class="term">-I <em class="replaceable"><code>input-format</code></em></span></dt>
68 The format of the input zone file.
69 Possible formats are <span class="command"><strong>"text"</strong></span> (default)
70 and <span class="command"><strong>"raw"</strong></span>.
71 This option is primarily intended to be used for dynamic
72 signed zones so that the dumped zone file in a non-text
73 format containing updates can be verified independently.
74 The use of this option does not make much sense for
77 <dt><span class="term">-o <em class="replaceable"><code>origin</code></em></span></dt>
79 The zone origin. If not specified, the name of the zone file
80 is assumed to be the origin.
82 <dt><span class="term">-v <em class="replaceable"><code>level</code></em></span></dt>
84 Sets the debugging level.
86 <dt><span class="term">-V</span></dt>
88 Prints version information.
90 <dt><span class="term">-x</span></dt>
92 Only verify that the DNSKEY RRset is signed with key-signing
93 keys. Without this flag, it is assumed that the DNSKEY RRset
94 will be signed by all active keys. When this flag is set,
95 it will not be an error if the DNSKEY RRset is not signed
96 by zone-signing keys. This corresponds to the <code class="option">-x</code>
97 option in <span class="command"><strong>dnssec-signzone</strong></span>.
99 <dt><span class="term">-z</span></dt>
102 Ignore the KSK flag on the keys when determining whether
103 the zone if correctly signed. Without this flag it is
104 assumed that there will be a non-revoked, self-signed
105 DNSKEY with the KSK flag set for each algorithm and
106 that RRsets other than DNSKEY RRset will be signed with
107 a different DNSKEY without the KSK flag set.
110 With this flag set, we only require that for each algorithm,
111 there will be at least one non-revoked, self-signed DNSKEY,
112 regardless of the KSK flag state, and that other RRsets
113 will be signed by a non-revoked key for the same algorithm
114 that includes the self-signed key; the same key may be used
115 for both purposes. This corresponds to the <code class="option">-z</code>
116 option in <span class="command"><strong>dnssec-signzone</strong></span>.
119 <dt><span class="term">zonefile</span></dt>
121 The file containing the zone to be signed.
