Some proposed extensions to the Automated Certificate Management
Environment (ACME) rely on proving eligibility for certificates
through consulting an external authority that issues a token
according to a particular policy. This document specifies a generic
Authority Token Challenge for ACME that supports subtype claims for
different identifiers or namespaces that can be defined separately
for specific applications.

This document is a product of the Automated Certificate Management Environment 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.
