The DIAMETER protocol provides Authentication and Authorization for
dial-up PPP clients [2] and for Mobile-IP [3]. The ROAMOPS WG has
been working on an accounting data format, called Accounting Data
Interchange Format (ADIF) [10], as a method to transfer accounting
information over a wide variety of transports. This document describes
how ADIF can be securely transmitted over the DIAMETER protocol.
This extension describes how accounting records can be securely
transmitted over the DIAMETER protocol. When combined with the
Strong Security [9] extension, accounting records MAY traverse
intermediate proxies in a secure fashion and is compatible with
the referral broker model. This extension allows for both
real-time and batched accounting transfers.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
