OVERVIEW
The CPG library is delivered with the openais project. This library is
used to create distributed applications that operate properly during
partitions, merges, and faults.
The library provides a mechanism to: * handle abstraction for multiple
instances of an CPG library in one application * join one or more
groups * leave one or more groups * Deliver messages to members of that
group * Deliver configuration changes
SECURITY
The CPG library encrypts all messages sent over the network using the
SOBER-128 stream cipher. The EVS library uses HMAC and SHA1 to
authenticate all messages. The CPG library uses SOBER-128 as a pseudo
random number generator. TheCPG library feeds the PRNG using the
/dev/random Linux device.
BUGS
This software is not yet production, so there may still be some bugs.
