Alice generates a key pair and secures it properly.
Alice generates a self-signed storage node certificate with the key pair.
Alice's storage node announces a fURL containing (among other information) the public key to an introducer.
For example, ``pb://i5xb...@example.com:443/g3m5...``.
Bob creates a client node pointed at the same introducer.
Bob's client node receives the announcement from Alice's storage node.
Bob's client node can now perform a TLS handshake with a server at the address indicated by the storage node fURL.
Bob's client node can now perform a TLS handshake with a server at the address indicated by the storage node fURL
(``example.com:443`` in this example).
Following the above described validation procedures,
Bob's client node can determine whether it has reached Alice's storage node or not.
If and only if the public key hash matches the value in the published fURL
(``i5xb...`` in this example)
then Alice's storage node has been contacted.
Additionally,
