-h Show usage and exit -a Apex only, check only the zone apex -e period Signatures may not expire within this period. Default no period is used. -i period Signatures must have been valid at least this long. Default signatures should just be valid now. -k file A file that contains a trusted DNSKEY or DS rr. This option may be given more than once. -p [0-100] Only check this percentage of the zone. Which names to check is determined randomly. Defaults to 100. -S Chase signature(s) to a known key. The network may be accessed to validate the zone's DNSKEYs.
