The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Diameter Network Access Server Application' (draft-ietf-dime-rfc4005bis-14.txt) as Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Diameter Maintenance and Extensions Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Benoit Claise and Joel Jaeggli. A URL of this Internet Draft is: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-dime-rfc4005bis/ Technical Summary This document obsoletes RFC 4005 and is not backward compatible with that document. The main change compared to the RFC 4005 is the removal of all of the material related to RADIUS/Diameter protocol interactions, which was underspecified and misleading. Moreover, the Command Code Format (CCF) for the Accounting-Request and Accounting-Answer messages has been changed to explicitly require the inclusion of the Acct-Application-Id AVP and exclude the Vendor-Specific-Application-Id AVP. The accounting model to be used with this application is also specified. Working Group Summary The document spent almost two years as WG document and the proposed changes from RFC 4005 were straightforward and roughly endorsed by the Working Group. There was no controversy on its final content. Document Quality A number of vendors have indicated interest on implementing the specification due it correcting several known flaws. There has been no MIB Doctor or Media Type reviews as those were not seen relevant for the bis version of the specification. There has not been explicitly requested expert reviews outside the WG as we believe most if not all important technical experts are already represented in the WG and its mailing list. The document has received multiple reviews while in WGLC. Personnel Lionel Morand (lionel.morand@orange.com) is the Document Shepherd, as Dime WG co-chair. Benoit Claise (bclaise@cisco.com) is the Responsible Area Director. RFC Editor Note Please add RFC 4005 as an informative reference
