The resulting keys can be used, for example, to secure dynamic DNS updates to a zone or for the <span class="command"><strong>rndc</strong></span> command channel. </p> <p> When run as <span class="command"><strong>tsig-keygen</strong></span>, a domain name can be specified on the command line which will be used as the name of the generated key. If no name is specified, the default is <code class="constant">tsig-key</code>. </p> <p> When run as <span class="command"><strong>ddns-confgen</strong></span>, the generated key is accompanied by configuration text and instructions that can be used with <span class="command"><strong>nsupdate</strong></span> and <span class="command"><strong>named</strong></span> when setting up dynamic DNS, including an example <span class="command"><strong>update-policy</strong></span> statement. (This usage similar to the <span class="command"><strong>rndc-confgen</strong></span> command for setting up command channel security.) </p> <p> Note that <span class="command"><strong>named</strong></span> itself can configure a local DDNS key for use with <span class="command"><strong>nsupdate -l</strong></span>: it does this when a zone is configured with <span class="command"><strong>update-policy local;</strong></span>. <span class="command"><strong>ddns-confgen</strong></span> is only needed when a more elaborate configuration is required: for instance, if <span class="command"><strong>nsupdate</strong></span> is to be used from a remote system. </p> </div> <div class="refsection"> <a name="id-1.14.30.8"></a><h2>OPTIONS</h2> <div class="variablelist"><dl class="variablelist"> <dt><span class="term">-a <em class="replaceable"><code>algorithm</code></em></span></dt> <dd> <p> Specifies the algorithm to use for the TSIG key. Available choices are: hmac-md5, hmac-sha1, hmac-sha224, hmac-sha256, hmac-sha384 and hmac-sha512. The default is hmac-sha256. Options are case-insensitive, and the "hmac-" prefix may be omitted. </p> </dd> <dt><span class="term">-h</span></dt> <dd> <p> Prints a short summary of options and arguments. </p> </dd> <dt><span class="term">-k <em class="replaceable"><code>keyname</code></em></span></dt> <dd> <p> Specifies the key name of the DDNS authentication key. The default is <code class="constant">ddns-key</code> when neither the <code class="option">-s</code> nor <code class="option">-z</code> option is specified; otherwise, the default is <code class="constant">ddns-key</code> as a separate label followed by the argument of the option, e.g., <code class="constant">ddns-key.example.com.</code> The key name must have the format of a valid domain name, consisting of letters, digits, hyphens and periods. </p> </dd> <dt><span class="term">-q</span></dt> <dd> <p> (<span class="command"><strong>ddns-confgen</strong></span> only.) Quiet mode: Print only the key, with no explanatory text or usage examples; This is essentially identical to <span class="command"><strong>tsig-keygen</strong></span>. </p> </dd> <dt><span class="term">-r <em class="replaceable"><code>randomfile</code></em></span></dt> <dd> <p> Specifies a source of random data for generating the authorization. If the operating system does not provide a <code class="filename">/dev/random</code> or equivalent device, the default source of randomness is keyboard input. <code class="filename">randomdev</code> specifies the name of a character device or file containing random data to be used instead of the default. The special value <code class="filename">keyboard</code> indicates that keyboard input should be used. </p> </dd> <dt><span class="term">-s <em class="replaceable"><code>name</code></em></span></dt> <dd> <p> (<span class="command"><strong>ddns-confgen</strong></span> only.) Generate configuration example to allow dynamic updates of a single hostname. The example <span class="command"><strong>named.conf</strong></span> text shows how to set an update policy for the specified <em class="replaceable"><code>name</code></em> using the "name" nametype. The default key name is ddns-key.<em class="replaceable"><code>name</code></em>. Note that the "self" nametype cannot be used, since the name to be updated may differ from the key name. This option cannot be used with the <code class="option">-z</code> option. </p> </dd> <dt><span class="term">-z <em class="replaceable"><code>zone</code></em></span></dt> <dd> <p> (<span class="command"><strong>ddns-confgen</strong></span> only.) Generate configuration example to allow dynamic updates of a zone: The example <span class="command"><strong>named.conf</strong></span> text shows how to set an update policy for the specified <em class="replaceable"><code>zone</code></em> using the "zonesub" nametype, allowing updates to all subdomain names within that <em class="replaceable"><code>zone</code></em>. This option cannot be used with the <code class="option">-s</code> option. </p> </dd> </dl></div> </div> <div class="refsection"> <a name="id-1.14.30.9"></a><h2>SEE ALSO</h2> <p><span class="citerefentry"> <span class="refentrytitle">nsupdate</span>(1) </span>, <span class="citerefentry"> <span class="refentrytitle">named.conf</span>(5) </span>, <span class="citerefentry"> <span class="refentrytitle">named</span>(8) </span>, <em class="citetitle">BIND 9 Administrator Reference Manual</em>. </p> </div> </div> <div class="navfooter"> <hr> <table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"> <tr> <td width="40%" align="left"> <a accesskey="p" href="man.rndc-confgen.html">Prev</a>�</td> <td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="Bv9ARM.ch13.html">Up</a></td> <td width="40%" align="right">�<a accesskey="n" href="man.arpaname.html">Next</a> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="40%" align="left" valign="top"> <span class="application">rndc-confgen</span>�</td> <td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="Bv9ARM.html">Home</a></td> <td width="40%" align="right" valign="top">�<span class="application">arpaname</span> </td> </tr> </table> </div> <p xmlns:db="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook" style="text-align: center;">BIND 9.11.4-P2 (Extended Support Version)</p> </body> </html>
