+This is the netconf service, which can be built and run by placing it in the
|
|
|
+services.d subfolder of the ZeroTier One home directory.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Users probably won't be interested in this. It's for running a "netconf
|
|
|
+master," which handles certificate issuing, static IP assignment, and other
|
|
|
+things for a network. The ZeroTier address of the netconf master forms the
|
|
|
+first 40 bits of a hexadecimal network ID, permitting the master to be
|
|
|
+located and queried.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Masters currently don't support multi-homing, but they can easily be made
|
|
|
+fault tolerant via fail-over. If the master node goes down, it can be
|
|
|
+started elsewhere with the same ZT1 identity. (The underlying database would
|
|
|
+also have to be fault tolerant.)
|
|
|

|
|
|
+For this to work it requires a MySQL backend with a properly structured
|
|
|
+database.
