This document defines the base syntax for CMC, a Certificate Management
protocol using the Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS). This protocol addresses
two immediate needs within the Internet Public Key Infrastructure (PKI)
community:
1. The need for an interface to public key certification products
and services based on CMS and PKCS #10 (Public Key Cryptography
Standard), and
2. The need for a PKI enrollment protocol for encryption-only keys
due to algorithm or hardware design.
CMC also requires the use of the transport document (RFC 10003) and the
requirements usage document (RFC 10004) along with this document for a full
definition.
This document obsoletes RFCs 5272 and 6402.
This document is a product of the Limited Additional Mechanisms for PKIX and
SMIME Working Group of the IETF.
STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track
protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and
