Technical Summary
This document describes a new Port Control Protocol (PCP) option
called THIRD_PARTY_ID. It is designed to be used in combination with
the THIRD_PARTY option specified in RFC 6887 but can also be used
without it. The THIRD_PARTY_ID serves to identify a Third Party in
situations where a third party's IP address contained in the
THIRD_PARTY option does not provide sufficient information to create
requested mappings in a PCP-controlled device.
