Hello all. What random device used for ? ARM says "Entropy is primarily needed for DNSSEC operations, such as ... dynamic update of signed zones". I don't get why signing a zone requires any randomness.
This bothers me as I'm implementing DNSSEC now, and I know that my systems are low at entropy, and BIND default random-device is /dev/random, and it (the device) blocks when there's no entropy available. Does BIND really needs that entropy, and how much ?
