Independent
software vendor (ISV) could easily make
|
|
|
the current
AAA server support the ASE function;
|
|
|
| • |
As
the deployment of the additional ASE server could
|
be not
required, it would
reduce the costs of the
WAPI
|
|
infrastructure's deployment and maintenance
|
|
| • |
The
WAPI offers the link-level security to the ASUE,
|
|
|
e.g., the
authentication and confidentiality.
Besides
|
|
|
them, ASUE
needs the authorization
and accounting
|
|
service. The
AAA already supports such functions
|
|
well, and the WAPI could easily reuse such services
|
|
if it could reuse AAA architecture.
