Could I point out that the RFC 6320 does not talk about clients and 
servers? It talks about the AN and the NAS. And either side can initiate 
transactions, depending on the transaction, so I think the client-server 
terminology would actually be confusing. Sorry, I should have noted this 
point earlier.
