Hi all!


I also know a colleague which was hit by the same issue, causing problems to 
their zone.



Migrating from auto-dnssec to dnssec-policy can lead to operational issues. For 
example that problem with different algos should be mentioned in 
https://kb.isc.org/docs/dnssec-key-and-signing-policy



Further, I suggest to add something like the following sentence to that 
article: Changing DNSSEC configuration can lead to unexpected zone changes and 
should be tested on dedicated test systems before. If you do this on a hidden 
master, you could also temporarily disable outgoing XFR by configuring 
'allow-transfer {"none";};' on that zone to prevent leakage of broken DNSSEC 
zones. This way you can check the zone after migration and only after 
successful testing (i.e. using https://dnsviz.net/d/ops.nic.at/analyze/ with 
advanced options, pointing directly to the hidden master) re-enable outgoing 
XFR.



Regards

Klaus

Your DNSSEC policy “mypolicy” specifies a different algorithm (ED25519) to what 
was previously in effect (ECDSAP256SHA256), which is why Bind generated new 
keys. If you want Bind to keep the old keys when transitioning to dnssec-policy 
you should initially specify the same algorithm in your policy.

My understanding is that after you’ve transitioned to using dnssec-policy you 
should be able to change the algorithm and Bind should do a graceful roll-over? 
Just make sure everything is “omnipresent” in your state files (in the keys 
directory) first.

Nick.
