One public FIPS identity, cloned across four edge regions. In the current experiment, external FIPS clients from different parts of the mesh land on the region that also has the best unique-edge latency from their vantage point.
The 3D scene highlights the 4 edge nodes, the shared identity, bootstrap, and the 5 external test participants. Anonymous background nodes are omitted here in favor of a cleaner presentation graph.

Infrastructure
Four edge regions, external bootstrap, and external FIPS test clients. Each region runs a unique node plus a shared cloned CDN identity in Docker.
Routing logic
One shared public identity, cloned at all edges, each attached only to its local host unique node. The mesh decides which clone is shortest/best from a given client perspective.
Validation
Five external FIPS participants were tested. In all five cases, the shared identity landed on the same edge that also had the best unique-edge latency.
