How to add DNSSEC to a domain name?

Identity Digital Registry supports Algorithm ranges including the 6-14 range. Our SRS allows all algorithms defined at the IANA website: http://www.iana.org/assignments/dns-sec-alg-numbers/dns-sec-alg-numbers.xml.

DNSSEC can be added via EPP or via the web portal
