So you're saying, that with a DNSSEC policy configured, bind is creating CDS records for me? If so, then when my registrar is supporting those records (switch.ch), this zone fully automated in regards of DNSSEC?
Is the creation of CDS Records a config option or on by default?

What about going from secure to insecure? Is this possible with dnssec policy or do I then have to put the relevant CDS records in the zone by hand?

Best regards
