Force addresses to not change? #5

Closed sheosi closed 2 years ago

sheosi commented 2 years ago

If we force adresses not to change during the whole connection, does this mean we can implement better security? However, this would affect distributed scenarios, where a same message might come from different computers, and also would be a problem for anything changing networks.

After talking with @skewballfox I realized something. There might be configurations where more than one registry exists and thus it's necessary that IP addresses are not recorded, otherwise connecting to a certain node in a registry network and then having another assigned by the system would be impossible. Of course other problems would arise if this was implemented.
