to identity keys, implementing Tor proposal 123[1].
The rules are simple:
- A router claiming to be Bob is named (i.e. added to the binding list)
- A router claiming to be Bob becomes named (i.e. added to the binding list)
if there currently does not exist a different binding for that
nickname, the router has been around for a bit (2 weeks), no other
nickname, the router has been around for a bit (2 weeks), and no other
router has used that nickname in a while (1 month).
- A binding is removed if the server that owns it has not been seen
in a long time (6 months).
