Feature request Route 53 SSHFP records

Question

Does Route 53 support creating SSHFP records to publish trusted ssh keys for an A record? I think this would be a great feature to add

Riku_Kobayashi · Accepted Answer

The following documents are record types supported by Route53.  
As far as I can tell from this document, SSHFP records are not supported.

Please check with AWS Support for additional feature requests.

Hi Dirk,
While sshfp is an important security technology, they are not essential.  Basically what these DNS entries did was help to protect your Secure Shell service from being impersonated.  Without it, you need to be more careful what you ssh to but not migrating them isn't going to stop anything working.

Hi, I try to move Nameserver from one.com to Route53. Now I am left with the 2 entries for SSHFP that I can not type into Rout53 and don`t know, if they are essential or if I can just leave them out, as I continue to run an email account at one.com on this domain. Does anyone know the side effects, not migrating the 2 entries SSHFP? Or is there a workaround? Thanks.
