Abstract
The purpose of this proposal is to redefine the node field as “application type” instead of “application name” in the agent string.
Motivation
Based on PIP14, the node field is defined as “The application name of the agent.” 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.
