RFC 9891: Automated Certificate Management Environment (ACME) Delay-Tolerant Networking (DTN) Node ID Validation Extension
Recent RFCs 2025-11-20
Summary:
This document specifies an extension to the Automated Certificate
Management Environment (ACME) protocol that allows an ACME server to
validate the Delay-Tolerant Networking (DTN) Node ID for an ACME
client. A DTN Node ID is an identifier used in the Bundle Protocol
(BP) to name a "singleton endpoint": an endpoint that is registered
on a single BP Node. The DTN Node ID is encoded both as a certificate
Subject Alternative Name (SAN) identity of type otherName with an
Other Name form of BundleEID and as an ACME Identifier type "bundleEID".
