This should be a 32 bit value calculated exactly the same way that the inception and expire fields of a RRSIG are generated. Seconds since 00:00:00 Jan 1 1970 UTC, excluing leap seconds, modulo 2^32.
This prevents common issues like mis-handling of leap years in converting from text to binary. This allow clients to use the value directly to initialise a clock with a 1 hz freqency for use for DNSSEC validation.
