Abstract
First and second host systems can each include a respective repository of host identities. The first host system can encode a host identity to be transferred to the second host system using a parameter, for example a property of the second host system. The first host system can divulge the result of the encoding and remove the host identity from its repository. The second host system can decode the host identity to be transferred using the parameter, and can then add the host identity to be transferred to its repository.
