This specification defines a profile of the Authentication and
Authorization for Constrained Environments (ACE) framework that
allows constrained servers to delegate client authentication and
authorization.  The protocol relies on DTLS version 1.2 or later for
communication security between entities in a constrained network
using either raw public keys or pre-shared keys. A
resource-constrained server can use this protocol to delegate
management of authorization information to a trusted host with
less-severe limitations regarding processing power and memory.

This document is a product of the Authentication and Authorization for Constrained Environments Working Group of the IETF.

This is now a Proposed Standard.

STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track
protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements.  Please refer to the current edition of the Official
Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the 
standardization state and status of this protocol.  Distribution of this 
memo is unlimited.
