Hi!

I use Bind 9.9.5 for inline signing. The zone is configured to use NSEC3 without opt-out:

example.com                 0       IN      NSEC3PARAM 1 0 10 BEEF

Nevertheless, most of the resulting NSEC3 records have the opt-out bit set and insecure delegations are indeed skipped (no NSEC3 records for insecure delegations), eg:

V24FPFCF9JU69PJH09ID0VEGDKLSN410.nic.at. 900 IN NSEC3 1 1 10 BEEF 0OTL3SD4PC0BGU4IVRM0DI2OV4DE8QQN A RRSIG

The only NSEC3 records having the opt-out bit cleared are the NSEC3 records for empty non-terminals, eg:

V1PD6GJFRL9AKKJLS8SLSFGE4D506CFN.example.com. 900 IN NSEC3 1 0 10 BEEF V24FPFCF9JU69PJH09ID0VEGDKLSN410


So, I am confused.

1. Why does Bind uses opt-out although it is configured to not use opt-out?

2. What would be the behavior for empty non-terminal NSEC3 records if opt-out is enabled? Would the generated NSEC3 record still have the opt-out bit cleared?

Thanks
Klaus
