Handshake parameters #161
Comments
Very much agreed. I think we should abstracting out all this into a package like |
Another parameter that I was thinking of would be "Supported Services", so nodes can run "Just a DHT" or opt out of having diagnostics, or maybe just serve bitswap, or maybe just serve overlay (when we get there), or any combination of them all. |
+:100: ^ :100: |
This way, users who are actually trying to find a peer (not just nodes near a key in the DHT) can find that peer, even if they aren't a DHT server and/or aren't in anyone's routing table. fixes ipfs#161
I think we should modify the handshake protocol between nodes to include options such as "prefer compression" and "prefer encryption" and if the both peers can agree on an encryption/compression type, applying that as a filter over the connection.
