The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) Authorization for Network Access Server (NAS) Management ' <draft-ietf-radext-management-authorization-07.txt> as a Proposed Standard This document is the product of the RADIUS EXTensions Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Dan Romascanu and Ron Bonica. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-radext-management-authorization-07.txt Technical Summary This document specifies RADIUS attributes for authorization and service provisioning of Network Access Server (NAS) management. Both local and remote management are supported, with granular access rights and management privileges. Specific provisions are made for remote management via framed management protocols, and for specification of a protected transport protocol. Working Group Summary There have been 2 WGLCs on the document. Much of the discussion on the document has centered around the model for provisioning of protected transports, as well as the different remote administration mechanisms (secure and insecure) to be supported. There has also been discussion of the relationship between Framed Management (introduced in this draft) and the pseudo-TTY management model supported in RFC 2865. Document Quality The document was reviewed by the Juergen Schenwaelder for the ISMS WG and by Vijay Gurbani for Gen-ART. Personnel Bernard Aboba is the PROTO-shepherd, and Dan Romascanu is the responsible AD. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
