    <para>
      <command>dnssec-keymgr</command> is a high level Python wrapper
      to facilitate the key rollover process for zones handled by
      BIND. It uses the BIND commands for manipulating DNSSEC key
      metadata: <command>dnssec-keygen</command> and
      <command>dnssec-settime</command>.
    </para>
    <para>
      DNSSEC policy can be read from a configuration file (default
      <filename>/etc/dnssec-policy.conf</filename>), from which the
      key parameters, publication and rollover schedule, and desired
      coverage duration for any given zone can be determined. This
      file may be used to define individual DNSSEC policies on a
      per-zone basis, or to set a "<literal>default</literal>" policy
      used for all zones.
    </para>
    <para>
      When <command>dnssec-keymgr</command> runs, it examines the DNSSEC
      keys for one or more zones, comparing their timing metadata against
      the policies for those zones.  If key settings do not conform to the
      DNSSEC policy (for example, because the policy has been changed),
      they are automatically corrected.
    </para>
    <para>
      A zone policy can specify a duration for which we want to
      ensure the key correctness (<option>coverage</option>).  It can
      also specify a rollover period (<option>roll-period</option>).
      If policy indicates that a key should roll over before the
      coverage period ends, then a successor key will automatically be
      created and added to the end of the key series.
    </para>
    <para>
      If zones are specified on the command line,
      <command>dnssec-keymgr</command> will examine only those zones.
      If a specified zone does not already have keys in place, then
      keys will be generated for it according to policy.
    </para>
    <para>
      If zones are <emphasis>not</emphasis> specified on the command
      line, then <command>dnssec-keymgr</command> will search the
      key directory (either the current working directory or the directory
      set by the <option>-K</option> option), and check the keys for
      all the zones represented in the directory.
    </para>
    <para>
      Key times that are in the past will not be updated unless
      the <option>-f</option> is used (see below).  Key inactivation
      and deletion times that are less than five minutes in the future
      will be delayed by five minutes.
    </para>
    <para>
      It is expected that this tool will be run automatically and
      unattended (for example, by <command>cron</command>).

	    publication and activation dates in the past, but the
	    keys have not been published in a zone as yet, then this

	  example, a policy class <userinput>normal</userinput> might specify
	  1024-bit key sizes, but a class <userinput>extra</userinput> might
	  specify 2048 bits instead; <userinput>extra</userinput> would be
