Overview
|
|
|
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This proposal is about adding a flag to streaming that specifies the type of
|
|
|
|
|
end-to-end encryption being used.

|
|
|
High-loaded apps can encounter a shortage of ElGamal/AES+SessionTags tags.

Add a new flag somewhere within the streaming protocol. If a packets comes with
|
|
|
|
|
this flag it means payload is AES encrypted by key from private key and peer's
|
|
|
|
|
public key. That would allow to eliminated garlic (ElGamal/AES) encryption and
|
|
|
|
|
shortage of tags problem.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
May be set per packet or per stream through SYN.
