NAME

|
|
zmq_curve - secure authentication and confidentiality
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
The CURVE mechanism defines a mechanism for secure authentication and
|
|
confidentiality for communications between a client and a server. CURVE
|
|
is intended for use on public networks. The CURVE mechanism is defined
|
|
by this document: <http://rfc.zeromq.org/spec:25>.
|
|
|
|
|
|
CLIENT AND SERVER ROLES
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
A socket using CURVE can be either client or server, at any moment, but
|
|
not both. The role is independent of bind/connect direction.
|
|
|
|
A socket can change roles at any point by setting new options. The role
|
|
affects all zmq_connect and zmq_bind calls that follow it.
|
|
|
|
To become a CURVE server, the application sets the ZMQ_CURVE_SERVER option
|
|
on the socket, and then sets the ZMQ_CURVE_SECRETKEY option to provide the
|
|
socket with its long-term secret key. The application does not provide the
|
|
socket with its long-term public key, which is used only by clients.
|
|
|
|
To become a CURVE client, the application sets the ZMQ_CURVE_SERVERKEY
|
|
option with the long-term public key of the server it intends to connect
|
|
to, or accept connections from, next. The application then sets the
|
|
ZMQ_CURVE_PUBLICKEY and ZMQ_CURVE_SECRETKEY options with its client
|
|
long-term key pair.
|
|
|
|
If the server does authentication it will be based on the client's long
|
|
term public key.
|
|
|
|
KEY ENCODING
|
|
------------
|
|
The standard representation for keys in source code is either 32 bytes of
|
|
base 256 (binary) data, or 40 characters of base 85 data encoded using the
|
|
Z85 algorithm defined by http://rfc.zeromq.org/spec:32.
|
|
|
|
The Z85 algorithm is designed to produce printable key strings for use in
|
|
configuration files, the command line, and code. There is a reference
|
|
implementation in C at https://github.com/zeromq/rfc/tree/master/src.
|
|
|
|
|
|
TEST KEY VALUES
|
|
---------------
|
|
For test cases, the client shall use this long-term key pair (specified
|
|
as hexadecimal and in Z85):
