* Device and phone registration * Device and phone registration
The device will have the cert baked into the image, so it will be the
only party (other than the phone) which will have an identity on the
server. This will enable the device to pair with the phone on the
server, by sending a request with the cert and pairing info.

*Update*:
This seems like a bigger bite at this time. Generate the certs [[https://jamielinux.com/docs/openssl-certificate-authority/create-the-root-pair.html][with
openssl]], or another tool (e.g. [[https://github.com/cloudflare/cfssl][cloudflare's cfssl]], or [[https://ocaml.org/p/x509/0.16.0][ocaml's x509]])
