Description

Develop a module that provides authentication and authorization on a ControlCommand.

  • A section in the configuration file specifies a list of trusted keys, each record contains:
    • Name for the key
    • public key
    • a set of granted privileges
  • Upon receiving a control command Interest, the security library is invoked to determine the signing key of that signed Interest, and verify the signature.
    • The security library should be configured to trust only the keys supplied from NFD configuration, and should not attempt to retrieve keys from network.
  • The command is authorized if the signing key has been granted the required privilege for the requested management module and command verb.

This task is to add authentication and authorization in NFD's management module. This functionality does not exist in NFD, so it's not resolved.

Commit 17bc3012bba11a07e9f3bda042e2216be338a636 contains related library features, but it does not solve this task.
