A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : DIAMETER Framework Document Author(s) : P. Calhoun, G. Zorn, P. Pan, H. Akhtar Filename : draft-calhoun-diameter-framework-07.txt Pages : 34 Date : 20-Apr-00 Current Internet Service Providers (ISPs) scale their networks by using the RADIUS protocol, which provides user Authentication, Authorization and Accounting (AAA) of Dial-up PPP clients. The recent work done in the Roaming Operations (ROAMOPS) Working Group was to investigate whether RADIUS could be used in a roaming network, and concluded that RADIUS was ill-suited for inter-domain purposes. The IETF has formed a new NAS Requirements Working Group, and part of their charter is to document the next generation NAS' AAA requirements. Recently, the Mobile-IP Working Group also documented their own AAA requirements that would help Mobile IP scale for Inter-Domain mobility. The DIAMETER protocol is a follow-on to the RADIUS protocol. DIAMETER addresses the known RADIUS deficiencies, and is intended for use with the NASREQ and Mobile IP application space.

Login with the username "anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After logging in, type "cd internet-drafts" and then "get draft-calhoun-diameter-framework-07.txt". A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail. Send a message to: mailserv@ietf.org. In the body type: "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-calhoun-diameter-framework-07.txt". NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE" command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with "multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on how to manipulate these messages. Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the Internet-Draft.
