Key Rollover

Automatic Rollover of KSK (Key-Signing Keys) and ZSK (Zone-Signing Keys) is supported with Utimaco HSM, and it happens as per the policy configured in kasp.xml. For more detailed information about the Key States and Key Rollover visit the official OpenDNSSEC documentation at https://wiki.opendnssec.org/.

  1. Use the command to roll the KSK manually. This will roll the KSK key in a timely manner following the policy used for the zone test.com.

›_ Console

# ods-enforcer key rollover --zone test.com --keytype KSK
