I have a qeustion on the authentication of control nodes. As it is 
described in RFC 4171 section 2.3.5, a Management Station can be a 
control node. Is the authorization for a control node by comparing the 
node names only? then anybody can use this name to make a fake control 
node if administrative settings on the server are readable to anybody.

Are there any other ways to solve the security issue?

Thanks,

Victor
