+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+\fBdnssec\-keyfromlabel\fR
+gets keys with the given label from a crypto hardware and builds key files for DNSSEC (Secure DNS), as defined in RFC 2535 and RFC 4034.
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.PP
+\-a \fIalgorithm\fR
+.RS 4
+Selects the cryptographic algorithm. The value of
+\fBalgorithm\fR
+must be one of RSAMD5 (RSA) or RSASHA1, DSA, NSEC3RSASHA1, NSEC3DSA or DH (Diffie Hellman). These values are case insensitive.
+.sp
+Note 1: that for DNSSEC, RSASHA1 is a mandatory to implement algorithm, and DSA is recommended.
+.sp
+Note 2: DH automatically sets the \-k flag.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-l \fIlabel\fR
+.RS 4
+Specifies the label of keys in the crypto hardware (PKCS#11 device).
+.RE
+.PP
+\-n \fInametype\fR
+.RS 4
+Specifies the owner type of the key. The value of
+\fBnametype\fR
+must either be ZONE (for a DNSSEC zone key (KEY/DNSKEY)), HOST or ENTITY (for a key associated with a host (KEY)), USER (for a key associated with a user(KEY)) or OTHER (DNSKEY). These values are case insensitive.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-c \fIclass\fR
+.RS 4
+Indicates that the DNS record containing the key should have the specified class. If not specified, class IN is used.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-f \fIflag\fR
+.RS 4
+Set the specified flag in the flag field of the KEY/DNSKEY record. The only recognized flag is KSK (Key Signing Key) DNSKEY.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-h
+.RS 4
+Prints a short summary of the options and arguments to
+\fBdnssec\-keygen\fR.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-k
+.RS 4
+Generate KEY records rather than DNSKEY records.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-p \fIprotocol\fR
+.RS 4
+Sets the protocol value for the generated key. The protocol is a number between 0 and 255. The default is 3 (DNSSEC). Other possible values for this argument are listed in RFC 2535 and its successors.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-t \fItype\fR
+.RS 4
+Indicates the use of the key.
+\fBtype\fR
+must be one of AUTHCONF, NOAUTHCONF, NOAUTH, or NOCONF. The default is AUTHCONF. AUTH refers to the ability to authenticate data, and CONF the ability to encrypt data.
+.RE
+.PP
+\-v \fIlevel\fR
+.RS 4
+Sets the debugging level.
+.RE
+.SH "GENERATED KEY FILES"
+.PP
+When
+\fBdnssec\-keyfromlabel\fR
+completes successfully, it prints a string of the form
+\fIKnnnn.+aaa+iiiii\fR
+to the standard output. This is an identification string for the key files it has generated.
+.TP 4
+\(bu
+\fInnnn\fR
+is the key name.
+.TP 4
+\(bu
+\fIaaa\fR
+is the numeric representation of the algorithm.
+.TP 4
+\(bu
+\fIiiiii\fR
+is the key identifier (or footprint).
+.PP
+\fBdnssec\-keyfromlabel\fR
+creates two files, with names based on the printed string.
+\fIKnnnn.+aaa+iiiii.key\fR
+contains the public key, and
+\fIKnnnn.+aaa+iiiii.private\fR
+contains the private key.
+.PP
+The
+\fI.key\fR
+file contains a DNS KEY record that can be inserted into a zone file (directly or with a $INCLUDE statement).
+.PP
+The
+\fI.private\fR
+file contains algorithm specific fields. For obvious security reasons, this file does not have general read permission.
