+<p><span><strong class="command">dnssec-coverage</strong></span>
+ verifies that the DNSSEC keys for a given zone or a set of zones
+ have timing metadata set properly to ensure no future lapses in DNSSEC
+ coverage.
+ </p>
+<p>
+ If <code class="option">zone</code> is specified, then keys found in
+ the key repository matching that zone are scanned, and an ordered
+ list is generated of the events scheduled for that key (i.e.,
+ publication, activation, inactivation, deletion). The list of
+ events is walked in order of occurrence. Warnings are generated
+ if any event is scheduled which could cause the zone to enter a
+ state in which validation failures might occur: for example, if
+ the number of published or active keys for a given algorithm drops
+ to zero, or if a key is deleted from the zone too soon after a new
+ key is rolled, and cached data signed by the prior key has not had
+ time to expire from resolver caches.
+ </p>
+<p>
+ If <code class="option">zone</code> is not specified, then all keys in the
+ key repository will be scanned, and all zones for which there are
+ keys will be analyzed. (Note: This method of reporting is only
+ accurate if all the zones that have keys in a given repository
+ share the same TTL parameters.)
+ </p>

+<div class="variablelist"><dl>
+<dt><span class="term">-f <em class="replaceable"><code>file</code></em></span></dt>
+<dd><p>
+ If a <code class="option">file</code> is specified, then the zone is
+ read from that file; the largest TTL and the DNSKEY TTL are
+ determined directly from the zone data, and the
+ <code class="option">-m</code> and <code class="option">-d</code> options do
+ not need to be specified on the command line.
+ </p></dd>
+<dt><span class="term">-K <em class="replaceable"><code>directory</code></em></span></dt>
+<dd><p>
+ Sets the directory in which keys can be found. Defaults to the
+ current working directory.
+ </p></dd>
+<dt><span class="term">-m <em class="replaceable"><code>maximum TTL</code></em></span></dt>
+<dd>
+<p>
+ Sets the value to be used as the maximum TTL for the zone or
+ zones being analyzed when determining whether there is a
+ possibility of validation failure. When a zone-signing key is
+ deactivated, there must be enough time for the record in the
+ zone with the longest TTL to have expired from resolver caches
+ before that key can be purged from the DNSKEY RRset. If that
+ condition does not apply, a warning will be generated.
+ </p>
+<p>
+ The length of the TTL can be set in seconds, or in larger units
+ of time by adding a suffix: 'mi' for minutes, 'h' for hours,
+ 'd' for days, 'w' for weeks, 'mo' for months, 'y' for years.
+ </p>
+<p>
+ This option is mandatory unless the <code class="option">-f</code> has
+ been used to specify a zone file. (If <code class="option">-f</code> has
+ been specified, this option may still be used; it will overrde
+ the value found in the file.)
+ </p>
+</dd>
+<dt><span class="term">-d <em class="replaceable"><code>DNSKEY TTL</code></em></span></dt>
+<dd>
+<p>
+ Sets the value to be used as the DNSKEY TTL for the zone or
+ zones being analyzed when determining whether there is a
+ possibility of validation failure. When a key is rolled (that
+ is, replaced with a new key), there must be enough time
+ for the old DNSKEY RRset to have expired from resolver caches
+ before the new key is activated and begins generating
+ signatures. If that condition does not apply, a warning
+ will be generated.
+ </p>
+<p>
+ The length of the TTL can be set in seconds, or in larger units
+ of time by adding a suffix: 'mi' for minutes, 'h' for hours,
+ 'd' for days, 'w' for weeks, 'mo' for months, 'y' for years.
+ </p>
+<p>
+ This option is mandatory unless the <code class="option">-f</code> has
+ been used to specify a zone file, or a default key TTL was
+ set with the <code class="option">-L</code> to
+ <span><strong class="command">dnssec-keygen</strong></span>. (If either of those is true,
+ this option may still be used; it will overrde the value found
+ in the zone or key file.)
+ </p>
+</dd>
+<dt><span class="term">-r <em class="replaceable"><code>resign interval</code></em></span></dt>
+<dd>
+<p>
+ Sets the value to be used as the resign interval for the zone
+ or zones being analyzed when determining whether there is a
+ possibility of validation failure. This value defaults to
+ 22.5 days, which is also the default in
+ <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span>. However, if it has been changed
+ by the <code class="option">sig-validity-interval</code> option in
+ <code class="filename">named.conf</code>, then it should also be
+ changed here.
+ </p>
+<p>
+ The length of the interval can be set in seconds, or in larger
+ units of time by adding a suffix: 'mi' for minutes, 'h' for hours,
+ 'd' for days, 'w' for weeks, 'mo' for months, 'y' for years.
+ </p>
+</dd>
+<dt><span class="term">-c <em class="replaceable"><code>compilezone path</code></em></span></dt>
+<dd><p>
+ Specifies a path to a <span><strong class="command">named-compilezone</strong></span> binary.
