Title : Memorandum for multi-domain Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) Interoperability
Author(s) : N. Hastings, M. SHIMAOKA
Filename : draft-shimaoka-multidomain-pki-05.txt
Pages : 32
Date : 2005-7-8
This memo is intended to describe the foundation necessary to the
deployment of a multi-domain PKI. The scope of this memo is to
establish and clarify the trust relationships and interoperability
between multiple PKI domains. A Certification Authority (CA) is able
to extend a certification path by establishing trust with other CAs.
Both single- and multi-domain PKIs are established by such trust
relationships between CAs. Typical and primitive PKI model is a
single-domain PKI that shares the same certificate policy at a
specified trust level. A multi-domain PKI is established by
combining more than one single-domain PKI. A multi-domain PKI can be
categorized as either a multi-trust point model based on the trust
list model; or single-trust point model based on the Cross-
Certification model.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
