Systems and methods herein are for a network having at least one host processor of a host node to discover peer nodes in the network. The at least one host processor can communicate a group identifier (ID) with further nodes in the network, where the group ID is based in part on a secret. A subset of the nodes can identify as part of a community within the network based in part on the group ID. The at least one host processor can use a key, which may be also based in part on the secret, with at least one node of the subset of the nodes to validate the host node and the at least one node as the peer nodes within the network based in part on being associated with the key.
A network comprising at least one host processor of a host node to discover peer nodes in the network, the at least one host processor to communicate a group identifier (ID), generated by applying a first hash function to a secret, to further nodes in the network, wherein a subset of the nodes identify as part of a community within the network based in part on the group ID, wherein the at least one host processor is further to use a key, generated by applying a second hash function to the secret, the second hash function being different from the first hash function, with at least one node of the subset of the nodes, and wherein the host node and the at least one node are to validate as the peer nodes within the network based in part on being associated with the key.
Two or more circuits to be associated as peer nodes in a network using a group identifier (ID), generated by applying a first hash function to a secret, and a key, generated by applying a second hash function to the secret, the second hash function being different from the first hash function, wherein a subset of nodes that include the two or more circuits first identify as part of a community within the network based in part on the group ID, and wherein the two or more circuits are further to use the key within the subset of the nodes to validate as the peer nodes within the network.
A method to discover peer nodes in a network, comprising:
