<a name="id2604759"></a><h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
<p><span><strong class="command">dnssec-keyfromlabel</strong></span>
gets keys with the given label from a crypto hardware and builds
key files for DNSSEC (Secure DNS), as defined in RFC 2535
and RFC 4034.
</p>
</div>
<div class="refsect1" lang="en">
<a name="id2604773"></a><h2>OPTIONS</h2>
<div class="variablelist"><dl>
<dt><span class="term">-a <em class="replaceable"><code>algorithm</code></em></span></dt>
<dd>
<p>
Selects the cryptographic algorithm. The value of
<code class="option">algorithm</code> must be one of RSAMD5 (RSA)
or RSASHA1, DSA, NSEC3RSASHA1, NSEC3DSA or DH (Diffie Hellman).
These values are case insensitive.
</p>
<p>
Note 1: that for DNSSEC, RSASHA1 is a mandatory to implement
algorithm, and DSA is recommended.
</p>
<p>
Note 2: DH automatically sets the -k flag.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span class="term">-l <em class="replaceable"><code>label</code></em></span></dt>
<dd><p>
Specifies the label of keys in the crypto hardware
(PKCS#11 device).
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term">-n <em class="replaceable"><code>nametype</code></em></span></dt>
<dd><p>
Specifies the owner type of the key. The value of
<code class="option">nametype</code> must either be ZONE (for a DNSSEC
zone key (KEY/DNSKEY)), HOST or ENTITY (for a key associated with
a host (KEY)),
USER (for a key associated with a user(KEY)) or OTHER (DNSKEY).
These values are
case insensitive.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term">-c <em class="replaceable"><code>class</code></em></span></dt>
<dd><p>
Indicates that the DNS record containing the key should have
the specified class. If not specified, class IN is used.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term">-f <em class="replaceable"><code>flag</code></em></span></dt>
<dd><p>
Set the specified flag in the flag field of the KEY/DNSKEY record.
The only recognized flag is KSK (Key Signing Key) DNSKEY.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term">-h</span></dt>
<dd><p>
Prints a short summary of the options and arguments to
<span><strong class="command">dnssec-keygen</strong></span>.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term">-k</span></dt>
<dd><p>
Generate KEY records rather than DNSKEY records.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term">-p <em class="replaceable"><code>protocol</code></em></span></dt>
<dd><p>
Sets the protocol value for the generated key. The protocol
is a number between 0 and 255. The default is 3 (DNSSEC).
Other possible values for this argument are listed in
RFC 2535 and its successors.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term">-t <em class="replaceable"><code>type</code></em></span></dt>
<dd><p>
Indicates the use of the key. <code class="option">type</code> must be
one of AUTHCONF, NOAUTHCONF, NOAUTH, or NOCONF. The default
is AUTHCONF. AUTH refers to the ability to authenticate
data, and CONF the ability to encrypt data.
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term">-v <em class="replaceable"><code>level</code></em></span></dt>
<dd><p>
Sets the debugging level.

<a name="id2604969"></a><h2>GENERATED KEY FILES</h2>
<p>
When <span><strong class="command">dnssec-keyfromlabel</strong></span> completes
successfully,
it prints a string of the form <code class="filename">Knnnn.+aaa+iiiii</code>
to the standard output. This is an identification string for
the key files it has generated.
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc">
<li><p><code class="filename">nnnn</code> is the key name.
</p></li>
<li><p><code class="filename">aaa</code> is the numeric representation
of the
algorithm.
</p></li>
<li><p><code class="filename">iiiii</code> is the key identifier (or
footprint).
</p></li>
</ul></div>
<p><span><strong class="command">dnssec-keyfromlabel</strong></span>
creates two files, with names based
on the printed string. <code class="filename">Knnnn.+aaa+iiiii.key</code>
contains the public key, and
<code class="filename">Knnnn.+aaa+iiiii.private</code> contains the
private
key.
</p>
<p>
The <code class="filename">.key</code> file contains a DNS KEY record
that
can be inserted into a zone file (directly or with a $INCLUDE
statement).
</p>
<p>
The <code class="filename">.private</code> file contains algorithm
specific
fields. For obvious security reasons, this file does not have
general read permission.
