2.2.2.1 Special processing for DS queries
When a server is authoritative for the parent zone at a delegation
point and receives a query for the DS record at that name, it will
return the DS from the parent zone. This is true whether or not it
is also authoritative for the child zone.
When the server is authoritative for the child zone at a delegation
point but not the parent zone, there is no natural response, since
the child zone is not authoritative for the DS record at the zone's
apex. As these queries are only expected to originate from recursive
servers which are not DS-aware, the authoritative server MUST answer
with:
RCODE: NOERROR
AA bit: set
Answer Section: Empty
Authority Section: SOA [+ SIG(SOA) + NXT + SIG(NXT)]
That is, it answers as if it is authoritative and the DS record does
not exist. DS-aware recursive servers will query the parent zone at
delegation points, so will not be affected by this.
A server authoritative for only the child zone at a delegation point
that is also a caching server MAY (if the RD bit is set in the query)
perform recursion to find the DS record at the delegation point, and
may return the DS record from its cache. In this case, the AA bit
MUST not be set in the response.

2. Definitions of Important DNSSEC Terms
trusted key: A public key, for a zone or a host, that a resolver
trusts and that can therefore be used to verify data. A key can
become trusted in two ways. First, it can be statically
configured and declared as trusted in the resolver's
configuration. Second, if a new key is referenced by a DS record
that is signed by an already trusted key, and the signature
verifies, the new key becomes trusted.
authentication key: A public key, for a zone or a host, that a
resolver trusts and that can therefore be used to verify data. A
key can become trusted in two ways: First, it can be statically
configured and declared in the resolver's initial configuration.
Second, if a new key is referenced by a DS record that is signed
by an already known authentication key, and the signature
verifies, the new key becomes trusted by the resolver.
chain of trust: In DNSSEC, a key signs a DS record, which points to
another key, which in turn signs another DS record, which points
to yet another key, etc. This alternating succession of KEY and
DS records forms a chain of signed data, with each link in the
chain vouching for the next. A resolver starting at a piece of
data in the chain signed by a trusted key can verify all
subsequent signatures. Thus all subsequent data in the chain is
trusted.
authentication path: In DNSSEC, a key signs a DS record, which points
to another key, which in turn signs another DS record, which
points to yet another key, etc. This alternating succession of
KEY and DS records forms a chain of signed data, with each link in
the chain vouching for the next. A resolver starting at a piece
of data in the chain signed by a known authentication key can
verify all subsequent signatures. Thus all subsequent data in the
chain is verified and authenticated.
security-aware resolver: A resolver (defined in section 2.4 of [4])
that understands the DNS security extensions. In particular, a
security-aware resolver uses trusted keys to verify signatures
over RRsets and (optionally) DNS messages.

sign zone data must be kept secure and best practices call for them
to be stored offline.) To reliably discover a public key by DNS
resolution, the key itself needs to be signed by another key that the
resolver trusts. Zone information is authenticated by forming a
chain of trust from a newly learned public key back to a trusted
public key (which is either statically configured or previously
learned and verified). Therefore, the resolver must be configured
with at least one public key that authenticates one zone as a
starting point. To establish this chain of trust, security-aware

zone's public key in the DNS reply message along with the public key

the same owner name.
3.1 Server Considerations
This protocol change dictates a number of changes to the operation of
an authoritative server:
Opt-In imposes some new requirements on authoritative DNS servers.
o The server MUST enforce the protocol requirement that ONLY
3.1.1 Delegations Only
This specification dictates that only insecure delegations may exist
between the owner and "next" names of an Opt-In tagged NXT record.
Servers and signing tools MUST enforce this restriction.
3.1.2 Insecure Delegation Responses
When returning an Opt-In insecure delegation, the server MUST return
the covering NXT RRset in the Authority section.
This presents a change from RFC 2535, where the "no-key" KEY RRset
would be returned instead. However, in the delegation signer
proposal, NXT records already must be returned along with the
insecure delegation. The primary difference that this proposal
introduces is that the Opt-In tagged NXT record will have a different
owner name from the delegation RRset. This may require
implementations to do a NXT search on cached responses.
3.1.3 Wildcards and Opt-In
RFC 2535, in section 5.3, describes the practice of returning NXT
records to prove the non-existence of an applicable wildcard in non-
existent name responses. This NXT record can be described as a
"negative wildcard proof". The use of Opt-In NXT records changes the
necessity for this practice. For both non-existent name (NXDOMAIN)
responses and Opt-In insecure delegation responses, servers MUST NOT
return negative wildcard proof records when the query name (qname) is
covered by an Opt-In tagged NXT record.
The intent of the RFC 2535 negative wildcard proof requirement is to
prevent malicious users from undetectably removing valid wildcard
responses. In order for this cryptographic proof to work, the
resolver must be able to prove:
1. The exact qname does not exist. This is done by the "normal" NXT
record.
2. No applicable wildcard exists. This is done by returning one or
more NXT records proving that the wildcards do not exist
(negative wildcard proofs).
Arends, et al. Expires December 26, 2002 [Page 5]
Arends, et al. Expires April 14, 2003 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft DNSSEC Opt-In June 2002
Internet-Draft DNSSEC Opt-In October 2002
insecure delegation nodes may exist between the secure nodes of
the zone.
However, if the NXT record covering the exact qname is an Opt-In NXT
record, the resolver will not be able to prove the first part of this
equation, as the qname might exist as an insecure delegation. Thus,
since the total proof cannot be completed, the negative wildcard
proof records are not useful.
o The server must be able to retrieve the proper NXT records along
with referrals to insecure subzone.
The negative wildcard proofs are also not useful when returned as
part of an Opt-In insecure delegation response for a similar reason:
the resolver cannot prove that the qname does or does not exist, and
therefore cannot prove that a wildcard expansion is valid.
In the delegation signer proposal, NXT records already must be
returned along with referrals to insecure delegations. The primary
difference that this proposal introduces is that the appropriate NXT
record will have a different owner name.
The presence of an Opt-In tagged NXT record does not change the
practice of returning a NXT along with a wildcard expansion. Even
though the Opt-In NXT will not be able to prove that the wildcard
expansion is valid, it will prove that the wildcard expansion is not
masking any signed records.
3.2 Client Considerations
Opt-In imposes some new requirements on the DNS resolver (caching or
otherwise):
Opt-In imposes some new requirements on DNS resolvers (caching or
otherwise).
o Resolvers MUST be able to use Opt-In style NXT records to
cryptographically prove the validity and security status (as
insecure) of a referral:
3.2.1 Delegations Only
* In RFC 2535, this is proven by existence of a verified "no-key"
KEY RRset.
As stated in the "Server Considerations" section above, this
specification restricts the namespace covered by Opt-In tagged NXT
records to insecure delegations only. Thus, resolvers MUST reject as
invalid any records that fall within an Opt-In NXT record's span that
are not NS records or corresponding glue records.
* Using Delegation Signer, this is proven by the existence of a
verified NXT record. This NXT record has same name as the
delegation RRset and does not have the DS bit set in the type
map.
3.2.2 Validation Process Changes
* Using Opt-In, this is proven by the existence of a verified
Opt-In NXT record. This NXT record does not have the NXT bit
set in the type map (that is, it is an Opt-In style NXT record)
and the name of the delegation RRset is lexicographically
between the owner and next names of the NXT record.
This specification does not change the resolver's resolution
algorithm. However, it does change the DNSSEC validation process.
Resolvers MUST be able to use Opt-In tagged NXT records to
cryptographically prove the validity and security status (as
insecure) of a referral. Resolvers determine the security status of
the referred-to zone as follows:
Note that using Opt-In does not substantially change the nature of
following referrals within DNSSEC. At every delegation point, the
resolver will have cryptographic proof that the subzone is secure
or insecure.
o In RFC 2535, the security status is proven by existence of a
verified "no-key" KEY RRset. The absence of the "no-key" KEY
RRset indicates that the referred-to zone is secure.
o Resolvers MUST reject as invalid non-NS RRsets that fall within an
Opt-In tagged NXT record's span.
o Caching resolvers must be able to retrieve the appropriate
covering Opt-In NXT record when returning referrals that need
them. This is only a difference when you consider that the
covering NXT record will not have the same name as the delegation
RRset itself.
o Using Delegation Signer, the security status is proven by the
existence or absence of a DS record at the same name as the
delegation. The absence is proven using a verified NXT record of
the same name that does not have the DS bit set in the type map.
This NXT record MAY also be tagged as Opt-In.

Internet-Draft DNSSEC Opt-In October 2002
o The AD bit (as defined by [8]) MUST NOT be set in a response
containing an Opt-In tagged NXT record in the authority section.
o Using Opt-In, the security status is proven by the existence of a
DS record (for secure) or the presence of a verified Opt-In tagged
NXT record that covers the delegation name. That is, the NXT
record does not have the NXT bit set in the type map, and the
delegation name falls between the NXT's owner and "next" name.
Using Opt-In does not substantially change the nature of following
referrals within DNSSEC. At every delegation point, the resolver
will have cryptographic proof that the subzone is secure or insecure.
When receiving either an Opt-In insecure delegation response or a
non-existent name response where that name is covered by an Opt-In
tagged NXT record, the resolver MUST NOT require proof (in the form
of a NXT record) that a wildcard did not exist.
3.2.3 NXT Record Caching
Caching resolvers MUST be able to retrieve the appropriate covering
Opt-In NXT record when returning referrals that need them. This
requirement differs from Delegation Signer in that the covering NXT
will not have the same owner name as the delegation. Some
implementations may have to use new methods for finding these NXT
records.
3.2.4 Use of the AD bit
The AD bit, as defined by [8], MUST NOT be set when:
o sending a non-existent name (NXDOMAIN) response where the covering
NXT is tagged as Opt-In, unless the NXT record's owner name equals
the qname.
o sending an Opt-In insecure delegation response, unless the
covering (Opt-In) NXT record's owner name equals the delegation
name.
This rule is based on what the Opt-In NXT record actually proves.
For names that exist between the Opt-In NXT record's owner and "next"
names, the Opt-In NXT record cannot prove the non-existence or
existence of the name. As such, not all data in the response has
been cryptographically verified, so the AD bit cannot be set.

Abstract
The Introduction of the DS [1] record has introduced the concept of
KEY signing and zone signing keys. In general, KEY signing keys are
the keys that are pointed to by DS records and are the secure entry
points to a zone. The key signing keys only sign the KEY RRset at
the apex of a zone, zone signing keys sign all data in a zone. We
propose a flag to distinguish the KEY signing key from other keys in
the KEY RR set during DNSSEC operations.
The key words "MAY","MAY NOT", "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED",
"RECOMMENDED", "SHOULD", and "SHOULD NOT" in this document are to be
interpreted as described in RFC2119.

Internet-Draft KEY RR Key Signing (KS) Flag September 2002
1. Introduction
The Introduction of the DS record has introduced the concept of KEY
signing keys. In general these are the keys that are pointed to by
DS records and are the secure entry points to a zone. These key
signing keys may also be configured in resolver systems that use
zones as a root for a secure island.
Early deployment tests have shown that during DNSSEC parent-child
interactions it is useful to indicate which keys are to be used as
the secure entry point to a zone. We introduce the Key Signing Key
flag to indicate this special 'administrative' status of the key.
During DNSSEC parent-child interactions it is useful to indicate
which keys are to be used as the secure entry point to a zone.
During key rollovers the KS-flag can be used by the parent to
determine from which key the DS RR is to be generated from.

KEY RR Format
The bit 15th bit (TBD) in the flags field is assigned to be the key
signing flag. If set the key is intended to be used as key signing
key. If the bit is not set then no special meaning should be
assigned. The 15th bit is currently reserved [2].
3. DNSSEC Protocol changes
The use of the KS flag does NOT change the DNS resolution and
resolution protocol. The KS flag is only used to provide a hint
about the different administrative properties and MUST NOT be used
during the resolving process.
Kolkman Expires March 4, 2003 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft KEY RR Key Signing (KS) Flag September 2002
4. Operational Guidelines
By setting the KS-flag on a particular key, zone administrators
indicate that that key should be used as the secure entry point for
their zone. Therefore zone administrators SHOULD set the bit only
for zone keys that are used to sign the KEY RRset and are intended to
act as the top of the chain of trust for their zone.
Parent zone administrators and resolver administrators MAY choose to
ignore the flag.
Even with the KS-flag there is no mechanism to distinguish between
keys that should be used by the parent to point DS records to or keys
to be used by resolver administrators as statically configured keys.
If the bit is modified during the lifetime of the key then this would
have impact on the keytag and on the hash data in the DS RRs
intending to point to this key. The bit SHOULD NOT be modified once
the key has been put into use.
5. Security considerations
The flag MUST NOT be used in the resolution protocol or to determine
the security status of a key. The flag is to be used for
administrative purposes only.
If the flag is used to determine which key is to be used as the
secure entry point then the trust in the key should be inferred from
an existing DNS chain of trust or by an out of band key exchange.

Internet-Draft KEY RR Key Signing (KS) Flag September 2002
1. Introduction
"All keys are equal but some keys are more equal than others" [2]
With the DS record [1] the concept of key signing and zone signing
keys has been introduced. In general these are the keys that are
pointed to by DS records and are the first keys to be used when
following the chain of trust into a zone ( secure entry points of the
zone). These key signing keys may also be configured in resolver
systems that use zones as a trusted root[4] for a secure island.
Early deployment tests have shown that during the key-exchange
between the parent and the child it is useful to indicate which keys
are to be used as the secure entry point to a zone. We introduce the
Key Signing Key flag to indicate this special 'administrative' status
of the key. The availability of the flag allows the key exchange to
be automated where, without the flag, some additional out-of-band
communication is needed.

The bit 15th bit (TBD) in the flags field is assigned to be the key
signing flag. If set the key is intended to be used as key signing
key. If the bit is not set, no special meaning should be assigned.
The 15th bit is currently reserved [3].
3. DNSSEC Protocol Changes
The use of the KS flag does not change the DNS resolution and
resolution protocol. The KS flag is only used to provide a hint
about the different administrative properties and MUST NOT be used
during the resolving process.
Kolkman & Schlyter Expires March 2, 2003 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft KEY RR Key Signing (KS) Flag September 2002
4. Operational Guidelines
By setting the KS flag on a particular key, zone administrators
indicate that that key should be used as the secure entry point for
their zone. Therefore zone administrators SHOULD set the bit only
for zone keys that are used to sign the KEY RRset and are intended to
act as the first link in the chain of trust for their zone.
Parent zone administrators and resolver administrators that want to
configure a keysigning key as their 'trusted key' MAY choose to
ignore the flag.
Using the flag a key rollover can be automated. The parent can use
an existing trust relation to verify keysets in which a new key with
the KS flag appears.
If the bit is modified during the lifetime of the key then this would
have impact on the keytag and on the hash data in the DS RRs
intending to point to this key. The bit SHOULD NOT be modified once
the key has been put into use.
5. Security Considerations
The flag MUST NOT be used in the resolution protocol or to determine
the security status of a key. The flag is to be used for
administrative purposes only.
No trust in a key should be inferred from this flag - trust must be
inferred from an existing chain of trust or an out-of-band exchange.
Since this flag MAY be used for automating key exchanges, we think
the following consideration is in place.
Automated mechanisms for rollover of the DS RR may be vulnerable to a
class of replay attacks. This may happen after a key exchange where
a keyset, containing two keys with the KS flag set, is sent to the
parent. The parent verifies the keyset with the existing trust
relation and creates the new DS RR from the key that the current DS
is not pointing to. This key exchange may be replayed, if the parent
does not maintain state of which DS RRs where used previously so that
the new DS RR is replaced by the old DS RR again. These kinds of
attacks can be prevented by maintaining a registry of keys that have
been used to generate DS RRs from previously.
