[Rsvp] User/Router authentication in RSVP

hi sundar,

for user authentication the mechanisms defined with rfc 3182 (identity
representation for rsvp) are used.
in addition the rsvp integrity object is used (rfc 2747).

looking at implementations you will find code for the integrity object.
however, both kom-rsvp and isi rsvp do not support the security mechanisms
proposed with the identity represenation document (at least at the time when
i looked at it).

other rsvp open-source implementations? not that i know.

ciao
hannes
