NAME

Net::DNS::SEC - DNSSEC extensions to Net::DNS

SYNOPSIS

use Net::DNS;

Net::DNS::SEC does not contain any code.

DESCRIPTION

The Net::DSN::SEC package provides the resource records that are needed for Secure DNS (RFC2535). DNSSEC is a protocol that is still under development.

We have currently implemented the RFC2535 specifications with addition of the 'delegation-signer' draft, the "typecode roll draft" and SIG0 support. That later is useful for dynamic updates with public keys.

RSA and DSA crypto routines are supported.

For details see Net::DNS::RR::SIG, Net::DNS::RR::KEY, Net::DNS::RR::NXT Net::DNS::RR::RRSIG, Net::DNS::RR::DNSKEY, Net::DNS::RR::NSEC and Net::DNS::RR:DS.

Net::DNS will load the modules for the secure RRs when they are available through the Net::DNS::SEC package.

See Net::DNS for general help.
