NAME

Net::DNS::SEC::Tools::defaults - DNSSEC-Tools default values.


SYNOPSIS

  use Net::DNS::SEC::Tools::defaults;
  %defs = dnssec_tools_alldefaults();
  $defalg = dnssec_tools_default("algorithm");
  $cz_path = dnssec_tools_default("zonecheck");
  $ksklife = dnssec_tools_default("ksklife");
  @default_names = dnssec_tools_defnames();


DESCRIPTION

This module maintains a set of default values used by DNSSEC-Tools programs. This allows these defaults to be centralized in a single place and prevents them from being spread around multiple programs.


INTERFACES

dnssec_tools_alldefaults()

This interface returns a copy of all the DNSSEC-Tools defaults in a hash table.

dnssec_tools_default(default)

This interface returns the value of a DNSSEC-Tools default. The interface is passed default, which is the name of a default to look up. The value of this default is returned to the caller.

dnssec_tools_defnames()

This interface returns the names of all the DNSSEC-Tools defaults. No default values are returned, but the default names returned by dnssec_tools_defnames() may then be passed to dnssec_tools_default().


DEFAULT FIELDS

The following are the defaults defined for DNSSEC-Tools.

admin-email

This default holds the default email address for the DNSSEC-Tools administrator.

algorithm

This default holds the default encryption algorithm.

enddate

This default holds the default zone life, in seconds.

entropy_msg

This default indicates whether or not zonesigner should display an entropy message.

keyarch

This default holds the path to the key-archiving program.

keygen

This default holds the path to the key-generation program.

kskcount

This default holds the default number of KSK keys to generate for a zone.

ksklength

This default holds the default length of a KSK key.

ksklife

This default holds the default lifespan of a KSK key. This is only used for determining when to rollover the KSK key. Keys otherwise have no concept of a lifespan. This is measured in seconds.

lifespan-max

This default is the maximum lifespan of a key.

lifespan-min

This default is the minimum lifespan of a key.

random

This default holds the default random number generator device.

rndc

This default is the default path of the BIND rndc program.

roll_logfile

This default is the path to rollerd's log file.

roll_loglevel

This default is the default logging level for rollerd.

roll_sleeptime

This default holds the default sleep time used by the rollerd rollover daemon.

savekeys

This default indicates whether or not keys should be deleted when they are no longer in use.

tanamedconffile

This default specifies the name of the named configuration file.

tadnsvalconffile

This default specifies the name of the dnsval configuration file.

tasleeptime

This default holds the default value for how long the daemon should sleep.

tacontact

This is merely a placeholder for the contact information. There is no useful default value for this.

tasmtpserver

This is merely a placeholder for the name of the smtpserver. There is no useful default value for this.

usegui

This default indicates whether or not the DNSSEC-Tools GUI should be used for option entry.

viewimage

This default holds the default image viewer.

zonecheck

This default holds the path to the zone-verification program.

zonesign

This default holds the path to the zone-signing program.

zonesigner

This default is the path to the zonesigner program.

zskcount

This default holds the default number of ZSK keys to generate for a zone.

zsklength

This default holds the default length of the ZSK key.

zsklife

This default holds the default lifespan of the ZSK key. This is only used for determining when to rollover the ZSK key. Keys otherwise have no concept of a lifespan. This is measured in seconds.
