Some applications that associate state information with public key
certificates can benefit from a way to link together a set of
certificates that belong to the same end entity and that can safely
be considered equivalent to one another for the purposes of
referencing that application-state information.  This memo defines a
certificate extension that allows applications to establish the
required linkage without introducing a new application protocol data
unit.  This memo defines an Experimental Protocol for the Internet
community.

This document is a product of the Public-Key Infrastructure (X.509) Working Group of the IETF.


EXPERIMENTAL: This memo defines an Experimental Protocol for the
Internet community.  It does not specify an Internet standard of any
kind. Discussion and suggestions for improvement are requested.
Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
