+ The format of the input zone file.

+ This option is primarily intended to be used for dynamic

+ The use of this option does not make much sense for

+ Only verify that the DNSKEY RRset is signed with key-signing
+ keys. Without this flag, it is assumed that the DNSKEY RRset
+ will be signed by all active keys. When this flag is set,
+ it will not be an error if the DNSKEY RRset is not signed
+ by zone-signing keys. This corresponds to the <option>-x</option>

+ <term>-z</term>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>
+ Ignore the KSK flag on the keys when determining whether
+ the zone if correctly signed. Without this flag it is
+ assumed that there will be a non-revoked, self-signed
+ DNSKEY with the KSK flag set for each algorithm and
+ that RRsets other than DNSKEY RRset will be signed with
+ a different DNSKEY without the KSK flag set.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ With this flag set, we only require that for each algorithm,
+ there will be at least one non-revoked, self-signed DNSKEY,
+ regardless of the KSK flag state, and that other RRsets
+ will be signed by a non-revoked key for the same algorithm
+ that includes the self-signed key; the same key may be used
+ for both purposes. This corresponds to the <option>-z</option>
