Brian,

Thank you very much for the detailed explanation.

Linda,
To provide some clarification: a "delay-tolerant network" isn't just a 
descriptive term, it is a specific type of overlay network operating with the 
Bundle Protocol of RFC 9171 in accordance with the principals of RFC 4838. This 
proposed validation method is both conceptually and procedurally analogous to 
the email validation of RFC 8823, and a DTN can be thought of in the same way 
as an email transport network: email addresses exist independently of the IP 
addresses or DNS names of the clients used to originate and receive those email 
messages, just as DTN Node IDs (and the BP Agents that transfer bundles) exist 
independently of whatever network, IP or otherwise, that transports bundles 
addressed with those Node IDs. This is why the RFC 8823 validation mechanism 
exists separately from the IP/DNS mechanisms, and is why the DTN Node ID 
mechanism requires its own mechanism.

Deb,

The discussion stemmed from my question about the mechanism specified in the 
draft-ietf-acme-dtnnodeid-10 not touching upon the special properties of Delay 
Tolerant. For example, are there any special considerations for the satellite 
network that requires hours or days of the round trip instead of the 
traditional network of ms for the round trip?
This triggered me to ask if the mechanism is applicable to validate IDs in 
other types of networks, like SD-WAN.

Linda,

I'm now very confused.  The original topic was comments on a DTN acme draft.  
How did we get to discussing Virtual Network IDs of SD-WAN edge devices?

Do you want to get X.509 certificates for these devices?  Or do you have 
something else in mind to validate these devices?

Roman,

Thanks.
I don't see how DTN wg is relevant, as the SD-WAN is NOT Delay Tolerant 
Network. More relevance is on the "certificate issuance mechanism" to validate 
if the IDs advertised by a remote node are legitime.

Does ACME Wg work on "Certificate issuance mechanism" for remote node IDs?

    IMO, the simplest thing would be to pose this question on the DTN WG 
mailing list.  This very specific work is being done in the ACME WG because it 
has the expertise on the certificate issuance mechanism, but I see you 
applicability to SD-WAN as more general.
