Folks,

AAA-Doctors track on all documents that specify something that
relates to AAA protocols (RADIUS/Diameter). In that light we
also occasionally provide some early comments before the I-Ds
from other WGs enter IETF LC.

Section 3.4 of draft-ietf-netmod-system-mgmt-05 defines a data
model for the configuration of the RADIUS client. Has the WG
considered additional transports for RADIUS than the original
UDP? RADEXT has defined TCP (RFC6613), TLS (RFC6614) and is
about to complete DTLS (draft-ietf-radext-dtls-04). There are
implementations already out in the field. I would envision 
different transports would have an impact to the data model
(transport type, possible TLS cipher details and credentials,
etc). Or is there a particular reason for not taking alternative
transports into account?
