Hi Matthijs, thanks for your response.

Yeah I figured that in the mean time :/

But what I don't understand; RFC 7583 explicit mentioned pre-publish of
DSDATA of ZSK, but not for KSK (IIUC)?

(Or is the 'market-share' of standby keys that low and most people using
a single KSK/ZSK and doing automatic roll over? How high is the chance
anyway to need an emergency key revocation and key rotation?)

Now, I wanted to test an KSK roll over with the following procedure.

* gen KSK-1; gen ZSK-1; gen KSK-2 (offline)
* Add KSK-1, KSK-2, ZSK-1 to the zone
* Sign DNSKEY with KSK-1; sign zone with ZSK-1
* Publish 2x DS for DNSKEY 257
* activate KSK-2; revoke KSK-1; sign DNSKEY with KSK-2 and sign zone
with ZSK-1

Jep I've done that; except "Don't put the key files for the stand-by key

added either the `.key` and on a second run `.key` and `.state`.)

K, lets see if I got 9.20 for OpenWrt. (Or I need to test on Debian)

I'm not sure I understand what you say? How does dnssec-policy interact
with 5011? (Or are you talking about, that a new auto generated key got
auto added to trust-anchros?)

I've added my KSK to the trust-anchor as initial-key and `rdnc
manged-keys` picked that up... (Btw: Can I change to
30-day-delay-till-trust-established? Like to 1 days for testing purpose?)


Thanks again,
Bernd
