Hi!,
Still around here... :P
Now I'm wondering what HIPL does with TLV payloads... if it receives some
TLV, does the daemon/someone make something with it? Could anyone request
it?
And even the user/hipd/someone can set a TLV to go in the base exchange or
in some signaling...
Sorry for the long response time, I was in IETF last week.
We use HIP TLV format both for internal (process <-> hipd) and external
(hipd <-> hipd) communications in order to use a single parser/builder.
For example, you can set some option using hipconf and it will create some
(global) state in hipd. Then, you can e.g. add new parameters according to
the state to base exchange when base exchange is triggered.
