TSIG-KEYGEN(8)                      BIND 9                      TSIG-KEYGEN(8)

NAME
       tsig-keygen - TSIG key generation tool

SYNOPSIS
       tsig-keygen [-a algorithm] [-h] [name]

DESCRIPTION
       tsig-keygen  is an utility that generates keys for use in TSIG signing.
       The resulting keys can be used, for  example,  to  secure  dynamic  DNS
       updates to a zone, or for the rndc command channel.

       A  domain  name  can be specified on the command line to be used as the
       name of the generated key. If no name  is  specified,  the  default  is
       tsig-key.

OPTIONS
       -a algorithm
              This  option  specifies  the  algorithm to use for the TSIG key.
              Available  choices  are:   hmac-md5,   hmac-sha1,   hmac-sha224,
              hmac-sha256,   hmac-sha384,  and  hmac-sha512.  The  default  is
              hmac-sha256. Options are case-insensitive, and the "hmac-"  pre-
              fix may be omitted.

       -h     This option prints a short summary of options and arguments.
