Abstract:
In one embodiment, a method includes: receiving, in a rendezvous server (RS), a first registration message (FRM) from a first registrar of a first network domain (FND), the FRM including a first device roster of a plurality of first devices of the FND; receiving, in the RS, a second registration message (SRM) from a second registrar of a second network domain (SND), the SRM including a second device roster of a plurality of second devices of the SND; and generating a first rendezvous point (RP) based at least in part on a plurality of key management server identifiers each associated with a key management server of the FND and SND, the first RP to enable the plurality of key management servers to perform key management exchange to generate at least one group key.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a method includes: receiving, in a first device of a first segment of a first network, a root seed from a second device; generating a pseudo-random seed tree using the root seed; according to a predetermined schedule, accessing at a first time a random number at a level of the pseudo-random seed tree associated with the first time; generating a rendezvous point record to enable communication with a third device in a second segment of the first network, the rendezvous point record including a rendezvous point name based on the random number; and encrypting and sending a message to the third device via an exchange server identified using the rendezvous point record, where the rendezvous point record does not include connection metadata and the exchange server has an anonymous network location.
