Description
The current implementation of credentials lacks extensibility and is not flexible enough.
A new framework should provide:- Additional credential sources (not only ipsec.secrets/ipsec.d*)
- Generic handling of private keys, public keys, secrets and credentials (not only x509)
- Database credential backend (used for Manager)
- Smartcard support
- Other crypto systems (ECDSA, ...)
- Other certificate systems (PGP)
