The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Diameter Network Access Server Application ' <draft-ietf-aaa-diameter-nasreq-17.txt> as a Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Authentication, Authorization and Accounting Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Bert Wijnen and David Kessens. Technical Summary This document describes the Diameter protocol application used for Authentication, Authorization and Accounting (AAA) services in the Network Access Server (NAS) environment. This application specification, when combined with the Diameter Base protocol, Transport Profile, and Extensible Authentication Protocol specifications, satisfies typical network access services requirements. Initial deployments of the Diameter protocol are expected to include legacy systems. Therefore, this application was carefully designed to ease the burden of protocol conversion between RADIUS and Diameter. This is achieved by including the RADIUS attribute space, and eliminating the need to perform many attribute translations. Working Group Summary This document is the product of the aaa working group, and had wg consensuus. Comments in IETF last call were addressed by the current document. Protocol Quality This document was reviewed for the IESG by Randy Bush and Bert Wijnen _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
