This repository contains a few tools for working with DNSSEC. The tools are implemented using BearSSL.

For a detailed description of DNSSEC and how these tools fit together, see this blog post.

#Generating keys

You can generate your ZSK (zone-signing key) and KSK (key-signing key) using the brssl tool:

$ brssl skey -gen ec:secp256r1 -rawpem zsk.pem
$ brssl skey -gen ec:secp256r1 -rawpem ksk.pem

You can also use -gen rsa[:size] to generate RSA keys.

#Complete example

Let's say we have a complete zone file example.com.zone:

$ORIGIN example.com.
$TTL	86400
@	IN	SOA	ns1.example.com. root.example.com. 2020040900 7200 900 1209600 1200
		NS	ns1.example.com.
		A	1.2.3.4
ns1		A	1.2.3.4

You can sign it with two keys, ksk-example.com.pem and zsk-example.com.pem with the following commands:

$ cp example.com.zone example.com.zone.signed
$ { dnskey -k example.com. ksk-example.com.pem
    dnskey example.com. zsk-example.com.pem
    nsec example.com.zone.signed
    rrsig -k ksk-example.com.pem example.com.zone.signed
    rrsig -z zsk-example.com.pem example.com.zone.signed
  } >> example.com.zone.signed

Alternatively, you can sign it with a single key, csk-example.com.pem:

$ cp example.com.zone example.com.zone.signed
$ { dnskey -k example.com. csk-example.com.pem
    nsec example.com.zone.signed
    rrsig csk-example.com.pem example.com.zone.signed
  } >> example.com.zone.signed

This may be wrapped up into a shell script at some point.

#ds

This tool generates a DS record for the parent zone (usually used for registrar configuration).

$ ds example.com. ksk.pem
example.com.    IN      DS      5207 13 2 10a30f9f11818844a7df830b85e125c9868bd2917fb21907f7f3569bdf8934d7

#dnskey

This tool generates a DNSKEY record from a private key.

$ dnskey -k example.com. ksk.pem
example.com.    IN      DNSKEY  257 3 13 0KcqMTP78j9XbR4FoglT9t03IIMtsRO321K01QlNAXuYmI/YlLU9elwEwYfAtPJ1GMCpXiJWrCd2Di1nATypCA==
$ dnskey example.com. zsk.pem
example.com.    IN      DNSKEY  256 3 13 FH+S2VOGBc7NAZU/1yL271VjUDzYEh3Ehv4Ii2GoFVTFwcHA/o3kdZS5N+l2CVK4N+6bqsiHwcqtmydSMVcziQ==

#nsec

This tool generates NSEC records for a zone, linking the domain names together.

$ { cat <<'EOF'; dnskey -k example.com. ksk.pem; dnskey example.com. zsk.pem; } | nsec
$TTL 86400
example.com.		IN	SOA	ns1.example.com. root.example.com. 2020040900 7200 900 1209600 1200
abc.example.com.	IN	A	1.2.3.4
def.example.com.	IN	A	5.6.7.8
EOF
example.com.    1200    IN      NSEC    abc.example.com. SOA RRSIG NSEC DNSKEY
abc.example.com.        1200    IN      NSEC    def.example.com. A RRSIG NSEC
def.example.com.        1200    IN      NSEC    example.com. A RRSIG NSEC

#rrsig

This tool signs the records in a zone, generating RRSIG records.

$ { cat <<'EOF'; dnskey -k example.com. ksk.pem; dnskey example.com. zsk.pem; } > example.com.zone
$TTL 86400
example.com.		IN	SOA	ns1.example.com. root.example.com. 2020040900 7200 900 1209600 1200
abc.example.com.	IN	A	1.2.3.4
def.example.com.	IN	A	5.6.7.8
EOF
$ rrsig -k ksk.pem example.com.zone
example.com.    86400   IN      RRSIG   DNSKEY 13 2 86400 20200510061125 20200410061125 5207 example.com. aM2PVY7JIgyVZIzE8J2c427ju3VRCPjdIeDwkCqa9ITI4n9WrCL50dLL5NC7E1vSERA6FUNybV0skjXoX6mLbA==
$ rrsig -z zsk.pem example.com.zone
example.com.    86400   IN      RRSIG   SOA 13 2 86400 20200510061143 20200410061143 28335 example.com. QR8IwdtcyApF13FP7dOpoQDOpcXasa2zBdlvLWl8X6j5d3COv13B/mV2/T5uPMIEFJEBvapIHsk0XUuHPzbe3g==

#tlsa

This tool generates a DANE TLSA record for a certificate.

$ tlsa example.com. cert.pem
example.com.    IN      TLSA    3 1 1 6584317c0720726df738582b2f5d440b8162baecd001e07fdf3d148d3f521fad
