Thanks for this information, this means ISP should care about this rolling 
process "or DNS provider who does DNSSEC validation" !!

Thnx

All the Best,

Subject: [dns-wg] Plan documents for root KSK roll project now available

On Friday, July 22, in the interests of transparency and to notify the DNS 
operational community, ICANN posted 
plans<https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/ksk-rollover#operational-plans> to 
roll the root zone key signing key (KSK).  These plans were developed by the 
Root Zone Management Partners: ICANN in its role as the IANA Functions 
Operator, Verisign acting as the Root Zone Maintainer, and the U.S. Department 
of Commerce's National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) 
as the Root Zone Administrator.  The plans incorporate the March 2016 
recommendations<https://www.iana.org/reports/2016/root-ksk-rollover-design-20160307.pdf>
 of the Root Zone KSK Rollover Design Team, after it sought and considered 
public comment<https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2013-03-08-en> on a 
proposed rollover process.

The process of creating a new key, using it to sign the root DNSKEY RRset and 
securely destroying the old key will start in Q4 2016 and last until Q3 2018, 
though the portions resulting in visible changes in DNS occur between Q3 2017 
and Q1 2018.  The important milestones in the project are:

- October 26, 2016: The new KSK is generated in ICANN's U.S. East Coast key 
management facility (KMF).
- February, 2017: The new KSK is copied to ICANN's U.S. West Coast KMF and is 
considered operationally ready, and ICANN publishes the new key at 
https://data.iana.org/root-anchors/root-anchors.xml.  (The exact date is 
dependent on the timing of the Q1 2017 key ceremony, which has not yet been 
scheduled.)
- July 11, 2017: The new KSK appears in the root DNSKEY RRset for the first 
time.
- October 11, 2017: The new KSK signs the root DNSKEY RRset (and the old KSK no 
longer signs).  This date is the actual KSK rollover.
- January 11, 2018: The old KSK is published as revoked (per RFC 5011, 
"Automated Updates of DNS Security").

What you need to do

If you operate any software performing DNSSEC validation (such as a 
security-aware recursive name server) that implements the RFC 5011 automated 
trust anchor update protocol and this functionality is enabled, you have no 
action: your software will notice the new KSK (authenticated by the old KSK) 
and update its trust anchor store accordingly.

If you operate any software performing DNSSEC validation that does not 
implement RFC 5011 or if you don't use the RFC 5011 protocol, you will need to 
update your software's trust anchor configuration manually to add the new KSK 
before October 11, 2017.  You can obtain the new KSK in February, 2017, using 
one of the methods described in the "Trust Anchor Publication" section of 2017 
KSK Rollover Operational Implementation 
Plan<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/ksk-rollover-operational-implementation-plan-22jul16-en.pdf>
 (one of the aforementioned recently published plans).

If you write, package or distribute software that performs DNSSEC validation 
and you hard code the root KSK (e.g., in code or configuration files), you 
should update your software with the new KSK when it becomes available in 
February, 2017.

Staying informed

ICANN will post occasional notices to various operational forums to keep the 
community informed of this project's progress, but we strongly suggest that 
anyone with an interest subscribe to the root KSK rollover mailing 
list<https://mm.icann.org/mailman/listinfo/ksk-rollover> operated by ICANN 
([email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>).  The list is extremely 
low volume.

The ICANN staff supporting and implementing the root KSK rollover project 
welcome your questions and comments: please direct them to the 
[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> list.
