Cryptographic Formation of IPv6 Address in Yggdrasil

Subscriber IP - the logical address of the user on the network. Small networks usually use manually assigned static addresses, while larger networks use automatic assignment via DHCP. For each segment of a LAN or WAN, a person or organization is responsible for managing routing and controlling IP addresses.





In most cases, an arbitrary change of the address given by the administrator is of no practical use to the subscriber, since can cut it off from the network. A more experienced user knows about a collision of addresses and can abuse it: assign an already occupied address to his device, thereby depriving the original owner of the IP address of the ability to use the network. In ordinary networks, an administrator is on guard for such hooliganism, but what happens in scalable networks with automatic routing, where there is no control over users at all? Let's look at the solution to this problem in the Yggdrasil Network - a scalable mesh network with end-to-end encryption and IPv6 routing.
