Hello
(First time posting on this ML)

After several months of waiting, i'm testing DNSSEC deployment with some on my 
domains, using opendnssec software.
However, some principles still are hard to envision for dummies, especially 
time schedules.

As an example, RFC 6781 shows a very clear timeline on section 4.4.2.2 about 
signature validity. But it miss it for any other operation (KSK or ZSK 
rollover, DS publication in the parent zone, ...). Concretely, it implies that 
system administrators who are not DNSSEC experts may have a lot trouble to 
understand what exactly mean each configuration parameters in softwares stick 
really tightly to RFC 6781 such as opendnssec. In consequence, DNSSEC 
configuration looks like black magic that will work (because software is made 
to do so) but we don't know why...
In my very specific case, i don't understand which of my parameters makes the 
KSK to take one day to be considered as "published" when my zones TTL are set 
to 3600.

Does material exists to explicit graphically (in an ideal way) each specific 
key and DNSSEC records life cycle, in the same manner of section 4.4.2.2 ?

Thanks
Emmanuel Thierry
