Fake routes attack and failure response incentives #9

Closed realcr closed 6 years ago

realcr commented 6 years ago

BronzeAge reported a possible attack on route discovery and incentives used in the failure response message. I include here the attack description and various ideas of how to mitigate it.

This is fundamental design issue and solving it is critical for CSwitch.

@kamyuentse , @juchiast Please check this document, you might have some good ideas.
