Switch from NSEC to NSEC3 !!! This is a statement with potentially huge consequences, IMHO. Only valid where DNSSEC algorithms allow either method (like algo #8 and algo #10, unsure about others). For algorithm like #5, NSEC is implied. So suggesting that it is easy to switch (between NSEC and

Hi, It is not possible to configure NSEC3 as a default in named.conf (on a per zone basis), is it? I would welcome such a feature. I also find it a bit strange that BIND decides to go for NSEC, even when the KSK and ZSK are configured with algorithm: 7 (NSEC3RSASHA1). Thanks. -- Marco On

- use algo 7 with NSEC allows you to move to NSEC3 without much hassle (but older resolvers won't validate your replies meanwhile) - use algo 5 with NSEC and you have to do a algorithm rollover first when you want to move to NSEC3 (but meanwhile, older resolvers will validate your replies).

Large public exponents in DNSSEC keys

It seems that several DNSSEC zones are using RSA keys with a public exponent of 2**32+1, probably because that's the value that the -e option to dnssec-keygen uses. While 3 is a perfectly good RSA public exponent, several bugs in signature verification have been found over the years where a value
