USK: Zmienny Klucz Nazw

Wszystkie pliki dostępne w sieci Freenet są identyfikowane i pobierane poprzez tzw. klucz, w podobny sposób jak strony www są jednoznacznie identyfikowane przez nazwę domeny.

Updateable Subspace Keys are useful for linking to the latest version of a Signed Subspace Key (SSK) site. Note that USKs are really just a user-friendly wrapper around SSKs, which hide the process of searching for more recent versions of a site. There are two types of USK addresses:

1) Możesz mieć adres USK z dodatnią liczbą przy końcu, podobny do tego:


Węzeł Freenet w twoim komputerze otrzymuje liste wersji USK które zna, również niekoniecznie przechowując dane. Tu jest lista poprzednich wersji, i ściągnięć w tle gdy byłeś poprzednio na danej stronie (dotyczy to wszystkich rodzajów linków). When you visit the link above, it consults this list for versions of the mysite site of 5 or greater. If it finds any, it return the latest one. Then, in the background, it searches for newer versions that it doesn't yet know about to add to your USK registry for the next time you visit the above address.

2) The other type of USK address has a negative number at the end, like this:


When you visit a link like this, Freenet searches for the version you requested plus four more (i.e. 7,8,9,10,11) at the node on your computer and and other nodes. If it finds only version 7, it will return that. If it finds one of the others, it searches for another batch of five versions: 12,13,14,15,16. It repeats this until there are four consecutive versions it can't find. Then it will return the latest version it has found so far.

---

For both types of USKs, the address in the browser address bar will be changed to the positive number of the most recent version they have found, e.g.:

http://127.0.0.1:8888/USK@rd0SN1...ABAAE/mysite/5/ might redirect to http://127.0.0.1:8888/USK@rd0SN1...ABAAE/mysite/11/

http://127.0.0.1:8888/USK@rd0SN1...ABAAE/mysite/-7/ might redirect to http://127.0.0.1:8888/USK@rd0SN1...ABAAE/mysite/14/

Inserting a USK

You can insert a site directly as a USK. This is recommended, as future updating algorithms may insert extra metadata to speed up searches.

If you insert a USK with edition number 0, the node automatically works out what the latest edition is, and inserts the site with an edition one higher. Contrast this with an SSK insert, where you have to manually keep track of what version you are at.

USK@rd0SN1...ABAAE/mysite/0/

If one inserts a USK with edition number n, where n > 0, the node will attempt to insert at that specific edition, even if the editions before it don't yet exist. If the edition does already exist, the node will retry with subsequent numbers until an unused edition number is found.

Notes

There is a common misconception that this is a valid USK link:


But this should be written as an SSK link instead:
