of documentation.

Secure Delegation
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Once a zone is signed on the authoritative servers, the last remaining step
is to establish chain of trust [#validation]_ between the parent zone
(``example.``) and the local zone (``dnssec.example.``).
Generally the procedure is:
- **Wait** for stale data to expire from caches. The amount of time required
is equal to the maximum TTL value used in the zone before signing. This
step ensures that unsigned data expire from caches and resolvers do not get
confused by missing signatures.
- Insert/update DS records in the parent zone (``dnssec.example. DS`` record).
There are multiple ways to update DS records in the parent zone. Refer to the
documentation for the parent zone to find out which options are applicable to
a given case zone. Generally the options are, from most- to least-recommended:
- Automatically update the DS record in the parent zone using
``CDS``/``CDNSKEY`` records automatically generated by BIND. This requires
support for :rfc:`7344` in either parent zone, registry, or registrar. In
that case, configure BIND to :ref:`monitor DS records in the parent
zone <cds_cdnskey>` and everything will happen automatically at the right
time.
- Query the zone for automatically generated ``CDS`` or ``CDNSKEY`` records using
:iscman:`dig`, and then insert these records into the parent zone using
the method specified by the parent zone (web form, e-mail, API, ...).
- Generate DS records manually using the :iscman:`dnssec-dsfromkey` utility on
`zone keys`_, and then insert them into the parent zone.
.. [#validation] For further details on how the chain of trust is used in practice, see
:ref:`dnssec_12_steps` in the :doc:`dnssec-guide`.
