- The Promised LAN is a closed, membership-only network operating a 24/7 LAN party since 2021.
- A Manifesto outlines the social-technical dynamics and goals of the LAN.
- Backbone Network connects LAN segments via IPSec links, using a dedicated /24 allocation and BGP for routing.
- DNS uses a custom TLD (.tpl), with root servers hosted on different LANs for redundancy.
- PKI includes x509 Certificate Authorities with a three-year lifecycle, using ECDSA P-384 keys and SHA384 signatures.
- Certificate issuance is managed via DNS TXT records and SSH authentication for security and simplicity.
