Abstract

This document proposes a PKI (Public Key Infrastructure) and a certification policy for inter-domain management between telecommunications providers, and for customer access to management functionality offered by providers. The PKI root is an Inter-domain Management Certification Authority (CA) which certifies CAs within the providers' domains. Relations to existing (or forthcoming) PKIs, security requirements, procedures for certification, and key escrow issues are outlined. Subjects in this context are either management applications or organisational /role identities.
