Federate

Allows two Impervious nodes to establish a peer relationship between each other

Overview
The Federate API allows for peer relationships to be established between nodes. A potential application of this is enterprise-wide NODE authentication, authorization, and accounting where an IMPID is a text based identifier for one's node.
At the moment, this API just trades the IMPID and signed public key between each other to establish the relationship. This allows for two nodes to "remember" each other for future transactions. In human terms, it's the equivalent as introducing yourself to another person for the first time.
