Hi Richard,

A very useful piece of work. Particularly the material on emergency key rollover. It took me some time to write the scripts to take into account TTL, propagation delays, and various key compromise scenarios. The approach your work takes gives the implementer a clear framework. Wish I had your work before.

Thanks. The emergency rollover logic in the draft is based on experience from several failed implementation attempts that kept sending us back to the proverbial drawing board. Once we got it "right" implementation suddenly became quite easy.

To me, a large part of the point with this draft is to take a much needed step from "rollover confusion" (which is where most of us spend time up during our initial implementation efforts) to "rollover analysis" (where it is possible to actually have a rational discussion about different rollover logic alternatives). But, having tried to have such discussions with a number of people it seemed clear that we needed some sort of "reference logic" first.

Hence this draft.

Regards,

Johan

The draft gives a rigorous description of timing considerations in DNSSEC
key rollovers.

Filename:    draft-morris-dnsop-dnssec-key-timing
Revision:    00
Title:       DNSSEC Key Timing Considerations
Creation_date:    2009-02-17
WG ID:       Independent Submission
Number_of_pages: 22

Abstract:
RFC 4641 gives a detailed overview of the operational considerations
involved in running a DNSSEC-secured zone, including key rollovers.
This document expands on the previous work, and discusses timing
considerations in greater depth.  It explicitly identifies the
relationships between the various time parameters, and gives a
suggested algorithm for key rollover in a DNSSEC-secured zone.
