The DOFObjectIDSource class represents a DOFObjectID used to identify a source of network operations.
Source IDs must always be unique to ensure operations are managed correctly throughout the system. Typically they are randomly generated, but tend to be large. Applications can specify their own Source IDs for non-secure traffic, but must ensure that they do not reuse a previous Source ID that may still be in use within the network (e.g., by operations sent by the node before it rebooted). Secure Source IDs are assigned by the AS and are not under application control.
