This document describes a way to perform client authentication in the
Simple Authentication and Security Layer (SASL) framework by
referring to the end-user authentication provided by an external
security layer. We specify a SASL mechanism family EXTERNAL-* and
one instance EXTERNAL-TLS that rely on the Transport Layer Security
(TLS) protocol. This mechanism differs to the existing EXTERNAL
mechanism by alleviating the a priori assumptions that servers and
clients needs somehow negotiate out of band which secure channel that
is intended. This document also discuss the implementation of
authorization decisions.
