Is there a tool/process to verify if the parenet domain has DSSET, KEYSET, or 
keys in place for the child domain?  Thanks.


You can use 'dig' or 'drill' for this, which are available as part of the BIND9 distribution (contrib) or from NLNet Labs, respectively.

First, make sure you have the DNSKEY for the parent zone (since the root zone is just now starting to roll out with DNSSEC info, there is no trusted root yet). If it's a TLD, you can find the trust anchors at https://itar.iana.org/ with instructions to validate and store DNSKEYs for the signed TLDs. Dig/drill need to be fed trusted DNSKEYs to function.

If you save the above trusted DNSKEY into a file called 'trusted-keys', then you can use either:

  dig +sigchase +trusted-key=trusted-keys your.domain.tld

or

  drill -TD -k trusted-keys your.domain.tld

and the output will show you if all the right things are in place and that there is (or is not) a chain of trust from your trusted anchor (DNSKEY) to your domain, and if not, where the chain is broken.

Mike
