Description

Simply register "/" will cause PIB to "hijack" all Interests to PIB. We need a solution to efficiently publish certificates from PIB.

  • Subject changed from PIB service: register per cert prefix for cert publishing to PIB service: register per-cert prefix for cert publishing
  • Description updated (diff)
  • Category set to Security
  • Start date deleted (10/17/2014)

There's a bigger problem: registering only ndn:/ cannot ensure all certificate Interests to be received by PIB service.
If another producer registers a Route with CAPTURE, certificates under that namespace cannot be retrieved.

PIB service can register one Route per certificate (or key), but this would greatly increase start-up delay of PIB service (#1990 requires PIB service to register Routes sequentially).
Having many Routes won't harm the efficiency of NFD, because FIB longest prefix match isn't much slower with many entries.
