The keymgr utility serves for manual key management in Knot DNS server.
Functions for DNSSEC keys and KASP (Key And Signature Policy) management are provided.
The DNSSEC and KASP configuration is stored in a so called KASP database. The database is backed by LMDB.
This utility sends Dynamic DNS update messages to a DNS server. Update content is read from a file (if the parameter filename is given) or from the standard input.
The format of updates is textual and is made up of commands. Every command is placed on the separate line of the input. Lines starting with a semicolon are comments and are not processed.
This program controls a running knotd process using a socket.
If an action is specified, it is performed and knotc exits, otherwise the program is executed in the interactive mode.
Knot DNS is a high-performance open-source DNS server. It implements only the authoritative domain name service. Knot DNS can reliably serve TLD domains as well as any other zones.
Knot DNS benefits from its multi-threaded and mostly lock-free implementation which allows it to scale well on SMP systems and operate non-stop even when adding or removing zones.
The server itself is accompanied by several utilities for general DNS operations or for maintaining the server.
