TODO #1 The encryption is really just a place-holder. link_verifier is meant to be a per-message link-level verifier, meaning that the physical link (a tcp connection in this case) can modify it and then use it as a verifier on the other end. It should be set to 0 in the original message. This is not yet implemented. At the moment we rely on the 32-bit CRC as our verifier, and it is not really good enough for the task. - link verifier not yet implemented - kill link on link verifier error - Differentiate between end-to-end crc and link verifier #2 the circuit stuff is a bit of a mess.
