This is how it works in practice.

RFC 6125 is due for an update, I guess. iPAddress subjectAltName has been
supported for years and years, but it never managed to capture it properly.

This is definitely a big change in that it now outlaws CN-ID. And the
definition of IP-ID here is probably overreach, but I don't see how we can
avoid that. I don't want to update RFC 6125 here (as much as it needs
updating), so making the definition standalone seemed like the right way to
handle it.

Closes #680.

Sorry for the late comment; apparently my github notifications aren't set to send me email when a new PR references an issue I'm watching.

I note that in the recently approved draft-ietf-dtn-tcpclv4, we used the term IPADDR-ID for the iPAddress SAN.
If we think that IP-ID is better, I can try to reach out to get the DTN doc changed during AUTH48 to be consistent.
