+ operations (such as signing or generating
+ NSEC3 chains) is stored in the zone in the form
+ of DNS resource records of type
+ <span><strong class="command">sig-signing-type</strong></span>.
+ <span><strong class="command">rndc signing -list</strong></span> converts

+ chains are being created or removed.
+ </p>
+<p>
+ <span><strong class="command">rndc signing -clear</strong></span> can remove
+ a single key (specified in the same format that
+ <span><strong class="command">rndc signing -list</strong></span> uses to

+ <span><strong class="command">rndc signing -nsec3param</strong></span> sets
+ the NSEC3 parameters for a zone. This is the

+ Parameters are specified in the same format as
+ an NSEC3PARAM resource record: hash algorithm,
+ flags, iterations, and salt, in that order.
+ </p>
+<p>
+ Currently, the only defined value for hash algorithm
+ is <code class="literal">1</code>, representing SHA-1.
+ The <code class="option">flags</code> may be set to
+ <code class="literal">0</code> or <code class="literal">1</code>,
+ depending on whether you wish to set the opt-out
+ bit in the NSEC3 chain. <code class="option">iterations</code>
+ defines the number of additional times to apply

+ <code class="option">salt</code> is a string of data expressed
+ in hexadecimal, or a hyphen (`-') if no salt is
+ to be used.
+ </p>
+<p>
+ So, for example, to create an NSEC3 chain using
+ the SHA-1 hash algorithm, no opt-out flag,
+ 10 iterations, and a salt value of "FFFF", use:
+ <span><strong class="command">rndc signing -nsec3param 1 0 10 FFFF <em class="replaceable"><code>zone</code></em></strong></span>.
+ To set the opt-out flag, 15 iterations, and no
