      announce itself on the local network, and uses TLS to
119
      communicate securely with and to authenticate the clients.  The

      Mandos server uses IPv6 to allow Mandos clients to use IPv6
121
      link-local addresses, since the clients will probably not have
122
      any other addresses configured (see <xref linkend="overview"/>).
123
      Any authenticated client is then given the stored pre-encrypted
124
      password for that specific client.

      <quote><literal>_mandos._tcp</literal></quote>.  The Mandos
253
      client connects to the announced address and port, and sends a

      line of text where the first whitespace-separated field is the
255
      protocol version, which currently is

      <quote><literal>1</literal></quote>.  The client and server then
257
      start a TLS protocol handshake with a slight quirk: the Mandos
258
      server program acts as a TLS <quote>client</quote> while the
259
      connecting Mandos client acts as a TLS <quote>server</quote>.
260
      The Mandos client must supply an OpenPGP certificate, and the
261
      fingerprint of this certificate is used by the Mandos server to
262
      look up (in a list read from <filename>clients.conf</filename>
263
      at start time) which binary blob to give the client.  No other
264
      authentication or authorization is done by the server.
