Multiple Certs and Keys

Hello Nikos,

A little confused about it. Since even I self-signed the another CNAME
domain, I still cannot get rid of the risk of domain resolution,
right? Can ocserv tell apart via CN(common name) and deliver the cert
according to IP-visit or domain-visit? The IP cert has already been
issued with a IP CN, and the cert with a domain CN; but they all share
one private RSA key. Do you think the best solution is to re-issue the
IP cert with a ECC key? or I shall mark different "server-cert=xxx"
strings, such as server-cert=192.168.2.100.pem,
server-cert=domain.tld.pem? I think haproxy SNI feature probably could
handle this scene, but without support of client certificates, am I
right? By the way if a server got 2 public IPv4, 1 private IPv4 and
couples of IPv6, can we handle them properly at the same time with
domain certs?  It's believed the ocserv may load and maintain a list
of CN.

Regards,
Yick
