Abstract


Pub-Sub model using HISPs and RFC-1218 Naming Structure, X.509v3 certificates compatible with Federal PKI.

Introduction


A Desktop pub-sub connection is created between two nodes A1-B1, Certificate and Provider Directory information is obtained from local HISP X.500/LDAP State X.500/LDAP, National X.500/LDAP, and other country X.500/LDAP

Purpose

NwHIN pub/sub DIRECT architecture using desktop STA, Internet MTA, S/MIME, HISPs, X.500/LDAP, DNS, X.509v3, Federal PKI, logical "AND" Gate (1898 US patent 613809)
