  4. Click CREATE KEY.
  5. Click CREATE. It will take a couple of minutes to generate - please wait for it to complete.
  6. Once generated, it will automatically add the DNSSEC record to your cPanel DNS zone and show you the details.
  7. You can view the details in Zone Manager under the “DNSSEC” option.
