+ <title>DESCRIPTION</title>
+ <para><command>dnssec-importkey</command>
+ reads a public DNSKEY record and generates a pair of
+ .key/.private files. The DNSKEY record may be read from an
+ existing .key file, in which case a corresponding .private file
+ will be generated, or it may be read from any other file or
+ from the standard input, in which case both .key and .private
+ files will be generated.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ The newly-created .private file does <emphasis>not</command>
+ contain private key data, and cannot be used for signing.
+ However, having a .private file makes it possible to set
+ publication (<option>-P</option>) and deletion
+ (<option>-D</option>) times for the key, which means the
+ public key can be added to and removed from the DNSKEY RRset
+ on schedule even if the true private key is stored offline.

+ <para>
+ Dates can be expressed in the format YYYYMMDD or YYYYMMDDHHMMSS.
+ If the argument begins with a '+' or '-', it is interpreted as
+ an offset from the present time. For convenience, if such an offset
+ is followed by one of the suffixes 'y', 'mo', 'w', 'd', 'h', or 'mi',
+ then the offset is computed in years (defined as 365 24-hour days,
+ ignoring leap years), months (defined as 30 24-hour days), weeks,
+ days, hours, or minutes, respectively. Without a suffix, the offset
+ is computed in seconds. To unset a date, use 'none'.
+ </para>
+
+ <variablelist>
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>-P <replaceable class="parameter">date/offset</replaceable></term>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Sets the date on which a key is to be published to the zone.
+ After that date, the key will be included in the zone but will
+ not be used to sign it.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>-D <replaceable class="parameter">date/offset</replaceable></term>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Sets the date on which the key is to be deleted. After that
+ date, the key will no longer be included in the zone. (It
+ may remain in the key repository, however.)
