Re: [knot-dns-users] Best practices for knot inline DNSSEC signing and zone loading

Right now I have two zone types for my knot test setup, one where knot is doing DNSSEC signing as a slave (AXFR in -> sign -> AXFR out) and one where the knot is the master for the zone and zone data is coming out of a git repository and gets signed. Reading older threads on this ML and browsing the configuration has led me to the following configuration and I wanted to make sure this is actually supported or if there is a best practice that is different. 1) Inline DNSSEC signing for slave zone. zone: - domain: example.com serial-policy: unixtime storage: "/var/lib/knot/slave" file: "%s.zone" zonefile-load: difference dnssec-signing: on dnssec-policy: rsa-de master: ns1_signer notify: ns1 acl: acl_ns1 policy: - id: rsa-de algorithm: RSASHA256 ksk-size: 2048 zsk-size: 1024 ksk-submission: tld_de This seems to work fine, zone gets transferred from master (with low serial), signed and with a new unixtime serial transferred out again. I'm not sure if "zonefile-load: difference " makes any difference for a slave zone but without it I get warnings about possibly malformed IXFRs... 2) Inline DNSSEC for master zone from git: zone: - domain: dnssec-test.intern serial-policy: unixtime storage: "/var/lib/knot/master" file: "%s.zone" zonefile-sync: -1 dnssec-signing: on dnssec-policy: rsa acl: acl_ns1 zonefile-load: difference-no-serial policy: - id: rsa algorithm: RSASHA256 ksk-size: 2048 zsk-size: 1024 This also works but I get warnings like this: [dnssec-test.intern.] journal, discontinuity in changes history (1540307365 -> 28), dropping older changesets Is this expected? Also I read in older threads that this might fill up the journal. Is that still the case? Best Regards Sebastian
