The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Name Attributes for the GSS-API EAP mechanism' (draft-ietf-abfab-gss-eap-naming-07.txt) as Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Application Bridging for Federated Access Beyond web Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Stephen Farrell and Sean Turner. A URL of this Internet Draft is: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-abfab-gss-eap-naming/ Technical Summary The naming extensions to the Generic Security Services Application Programming interface provide a mechanism for applications to discover authorization and personalization information associated with GSS-API names. The Extensible Authentication Protocol GSS-API mechanism allows an Authentication/Authorization/Accounting peer to provide authorization attributes along side an authentication response. It also provides mechanisms to process Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) messages provided in the AAA response. This document describes the necessary information to use the naming extensions API to access that information. Working Group Summary There was nothing particularly rough about the consensus. All contentious points were resolved amiably. Document Quality The protocol is in use in the Moonshot project. Jim Schaad provided a very thorough review that resulted in a number of changes to the document. The document was also socialized in Kitten.
