CLIENT AND SERVER ROLES

A socket using CURVE can be either client or server but not both. The role
is independent of bind/connect direction.
A socket using CURVE can be either client or server, at any moment, but
not both. The role is independent of bind/connect direction.
A socket can change roles at any point by setting new options. The role
affects all zmq_connect and zmq_bind calls that follow it.

on the socket, and then sets the ZMQ_CURVE_SECRETKEY option to provide the

To become a CURVE client, the application sets the ZMQ_CURVE_SERVERKEY

If the server does authentication it will be based on the client's long
