Internet - Draft RIPE NCC Expires : July 4 , 2003

Internet-Drafts are working documents of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), its areas, and its working groups. Note that other groups may also distribute working documents as Internet-Drafts. Internet-Drafts are draft documents valid for a maximum of six months and may be updated, replaced, or obsoleted by other documents at any time. It is inappropriate to use Internet-Drafts as reference material or to cite them other than as "work in progress." Abstract With the DS resource record the concept of key-signing and zone-signing keys has been introduced. During key-exchanges with the parent there is a need to differentiate between these zone-and key-signing keys. We propose a flag to indicate which key is used as key-signing key.
