directories.
This draft is a work item of the Simple Authentication and Security Layer Working Group of the IETF.
Title : Simple Authentication and Security Layer (SASL)
Author(s) : A. Melnikov, K. Zeilenga
Filename : draft-ietf-sasl-4422bis-00.txt
Pages : 33

The Simple Authentication and Security Layer (SASL) is a framework
for providing authentication and data security services in
connection-oriented protocols via replaceable mechanisms. It
provides a structured interface between protocols and mechanisms.
The resulting framework allows new protocols to reuse existing
mechanisms and allows old protocols to make use of new mechanisms.
The framework also provides a protocol for securing subsequent
protocol exchanges within a data security layer.
This document describes how a SASL mechanism is structured, describes
how protocols include support for SASL, and defines the protocol for
carrying a data security layer over a connection. In addition, this
document defines one SASL mechanism, the EXTERNAL mechanism.
This document obsoletes RFC 4422 [[when approved]].
