monotonic_time

struct GNUNET_TIME_AbsoluteNBO CadetConnectionCreatePS::monotonic_time

Time at the initiator when generating the signature.

Note that the receiver MUST IGNORE the absolute time, and only interpret the value as a mononic time and reject "older" values than the last one observed. This is necessary as we do not want to require synchronized clocks and may not have a bidirectional communication channel.

Even with this, there is no real guarantee against replay achieved here, unless the latest timestamp is persisted. Persistence should be provided via PEERSTORE if possible.
