[Tm-rid] Some updates and work on HHITs

[Robert Moskowitz <[e-mail]>]

Just to let people here know I have been working away with some 
groundwork, expanding on the prior list of documents and peripheral things.

Right now I am working on what a eddsa pki would be that would back up 
the proposed HHITs and various repositories.  For this I want to 
generate some testing HHITs.

I will use openssl from my draft-moskowitz-eddsa-pki and HHIT format 
from draft-moskowitz-hierarchical-hip (sec 4).

I make the ed25519 keypair with:

    openssl genpkey -aes256 -algorithm ed25519 -outform pem -out 
entity.key.pem

Note the keypair is encrypted; it contains the private key.  This can be 
viewed with:

    openssl pkey -inform pem -in entity.key.pem -text -noout

The public key can be extracted in DER format with:

openssl pkey -in entity.key.pem -out entity.pub.der -outform DER -pubout

For the HHIT:

HIT SUITE ID = 4
RAA = 10
HDA = 20

It would be great to have this as a python or perl script.  That way I 
may learn something along the way.

Inputs are:

key file name
key password
HIT Suite ID
RRA
HDA

Output should be:

the HHIT in 128bit binary to some file
the HHIT in ipv6 : display format

Thanks on any help.  I will be posting this to both the tm-rid list and 
the hipsec list.
