RFC 4484: Trait-Based Authorization Requirements for the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)
In plain English — editorial summary, not part of the RFC
This document lays out a set of requirements related to trait-based authorization for the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP). While some authentication mechanisms are described in the base SIP specification, trait-based authorization provides information used to make policy decisions based on the attributes of a participant in a session. This approach provides a richer framework for authorization, as well as allows greater privacy for users of an identity system. This memo provides information for the Internet community.
