Subject: Re: [xacml-dev] Some queries regarding RBAC and XACML Profile for delegation.
Dear Erik, > Oh, I see now what you want. You want to add administrative rights for > roles.

How i am percieving : - An Access request comes, and it will first matched by an Access policy by the Policy Decision point (PDP) - Matching is done using RBAC, as you described in your email i.e. we have a RPS and then that RPS will refer to a PPS. - If there is no match , or if the result is even deny then , PDP dont simply gives answer back to the PEP but - it will check for a Delegation Policy , and then the whole process begins which is illustrated in the profile. - Now, i am not clear about your point, could you plz give me some example that how e.g. i can make use of Role Heirarchies, in your profile, keeping seperation between access policies and Administrative policies. I am not sure about using an Empty Delegate Element ?? regards, Muhammad.
