Description This article describes what is the lifetime of the DNSSEC keys.
Scope FortiADC, FortiADC-VM.
Solution

When enabling DNSSEC,  there is secure communication between the FortiADC DNS server and any child DNS servers. It is based on keys contained in delegation signer files (DSSET files).

 

In DNSSEC deployments, DSSET files are created automatically upon signing the zone through DNSSEC. These DNSSEC keys are perpetual and they never expire.

The DSSET key contains ZSK (Zone Signing Key) and KSK (Key-signing Key).
