Dear ACE WG,
I am looking for concrete examples of device certificates, specifically the
format of any
"identifier" field that is uniquely identifying the device, such as the
X520SerialNumber field.
I have found no good examples in RFCs. I hope / suspect that some vendors would
use a more
structured format, such as X520SerialNumber = "PID:ANI-SDEV-7X9
SN:FBC1234X97A", e.g.:
contatenation of device type and actual serial number.
If you are aware of any specific standards or other recommendations as to the
format of
such a field, i welcome points (e.g.: OPC UA has one for their own
ProductInstanceUri, but
its not clear to me if this is being adopted in reality).
Thank you so much
Toerless
P.S.: reason for asking: In ANIMA/BRSKI, we have the case where we need to use
network discovery
to find devices based on such information, and we're pondering if/how well
enough the information
is cross-product-family and cross-vendor unique enough, and/or how much we need
to think of
further qualification.
