This memo proposes an Authentication, Authorization, Accounting (AAA)
architecture that would incorporate a generic AAA server along with an
application interface to a set of Application Specific Modules that
could perform application specific AAA functions.  A separation of AAA
functions required in a multi-domain environment is then proposed
using a layered protocol abstraction.  The long term goal is to create
a generic framework which allows complex authorizations to be realized
through a network of interconnected AAA servers.

This memo defines an Experimental Protocol for the Internet community.
