RFC5155, Section 10.3 specifies the maximum number of hash iterations for
NSEC3 given the size of the ZSK. The key size in bits must be rounded upwards
to the nearest table (Table 1) entry or downwards if necessary. More iterations
than the corresponding number in the table MUST NOT be used. NSEC3 RRs
with more iterations MIGHT be considered insecure. This effectively puts a
maximum on the number of iterations.
Key size | Iterations
1024 | 150
2048 | 500
4096 | 2500
OpenDNSSEC should emit a stern warning for policies exceeding these iteration counts.
