Hi, I didn't catch it, sorry.

Do you mean that the node_id is learned at JP via the TLS
(certificate) authentication with bootstrap peer ? So when TLS
happens, Jp gets the node_id of bootstrap peer via the certificate
used in TLS ? That means that for debugging purpose you have to use
TLS ? We hoped during implementation that we could use simple TCP
connections first, instead of TLS.

If so, don't you think that the exchange of the Node_id should better
be placed on RELOAD-Layer, not on the Link Layer ?

Cheers,
  Frédéric
