@ -54,6 +54,21 @@ feature shouldn't break compatibility with existing IPFS nodes.
You can enable gossipsub via configuration:
`ipfs config Pubsub.Router gossipsub`
### Message Signing
As of 0.4.18, go-ipfs signs all pubsub messages by default. For now, it doesn't
*reject* unsigned messages but it will in the future.
You can turn off message signing (not recommended unless you're using a private
network) by running:
`ipfs config Pubsub.DisableSigning true`
You can turn on strict signature verification (require that all messages be
signed) by running:
`ipfs config Pubsub.StrictSignatureVerification true`
(this last option will be set to true by default and eventually removed entirely)
### Road to being a real feature
- [ ] Needs more people to use and report on how well it works
- [ ] Needs authenticated modes to be implemented
