Abstract #
The purpose of this proposal is to redefine the node field as āapplication typeā instead of āapplication nameā in the agent string.
Motivation #
Based on PIP14, the node field is defined as āThe application name of the agentā. There are two problems with this definition:
- Depending on the operating system, the node field can change, e.g.,
pactus-gui&pactus-gui.exe. - Some users rename the application, for example, to
pdeamon.
Specification #
This proposal suggests defining the node field as the application type of the agent, as defined below:
daemon: If the client agent is a CLI or Daemon application.gui: If the client agent is a GUI application.
Security Considerations #
The implementation of this time check feature should not compromise security.
