Subject: RE: RE: [xacml] another small time/date issue
If I understand the block diagram in the specification correctly it is PIP that is responsible for all and any of the attributes. The source of this Information, except for the request context is not specified and left to the implementation.. -----Original Message----- From: Seth Proctor [mailto:Seth.Proctor@Sun.COM] Sent: Thursday, August 14, 2003 8:30 PM To: Daniel Engovatov Cc: bill parducci; xacml@lists.oasis-open.org Subject: Re: RE: [xacml] another small time/date issue > ..but PDP is not intended to be a source (for "adding/enhancing") of > information, is it? It already is. The PDP must supply current time/date values if they're not included in a request. Unlike other attributes, these values must always be available, so in practice most people will use a PDP that knows how to provide this data directly. This is why I wanted to see some clarifiaction. seth
