so I assume we are talking about the (artificial) case where a single host provides both Relay and Rendezvous service, and is communicating with a single registered Client? It's the same control channel, so I don't see any need to have different HMAC keys for different messages since it's still the same two hosts. Or maybe I misunderstood your scenario, so please elaborate? _______________________________________________ Hipsec mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/hipsec
