    ; If you do not already have NDN certificate, you can generate
    ; one with the following commands.
    ;
    ; 1. Generate and install a self-signed identity certificate:
    ;
    ;      ndnsec-keygen /`whoami` | ndnsec-install-cert -
    ;
    ; Note that the argument to ndnsec-key will be the identity name of the
    ; new key (in this case, /your-username). Identities are hierarchical NDN
    ; names and may have multiple components (e.g. `/ndn/ucla/edu/alice`).
    ; You may create additional keys and identities as you see fit.
    ;
    ; 2. Dump the NDN certificate to a file:
    ;
    ;      sudo mkdir -p @SYSCONFDIR@/ndn/keys/
    ;      ndnsec-cert-dump -i /`whoami` >  default.ndncert
    ;      sudo mv default.ndncert @SYSCONFDIR@/ndn/keys/default.ndncert
    ;
    ; The "certfile" field below specifies the default key directory for
    ; your machine. You may move your newly created key to the location it
    ; specifies or path.

    certfile keys/default.ndncert ; NDN identity certificate file
    privileges ; set of privileges granted to this identity
    {
      faces

  ; You may have multiple authorize sections that specify additional
  ; certificates and their privileges.
