Hi
Guys,
I have
come accross an issue here, where some fellow designers want to generate an
x.509 certificate for use with OpenSSL, but they want to specifically bind the
generated cert to only be used with one individual IP address. Is this possible?
I have been doing a bit of reading up on X.509 cert format, and I have yet to
see any field or part of the cert, which would contain an IP address value, or
allow the cert to be used only with a specific IP address.
I had
alsways thought that the cert was independent of the network configuration of
the machine it was being used on, but is this always the
case?
Cheers,
Brian
