Abstract

It is often desirable for an application server to permit a flow across a firewall, as happens today when a firewall includes an Application Layer Gateway (ALG) function. However, an ALG has several weaknesses. This document describes a cryptographic technique for an application server to permit a flow across a firewall. This technique uses OAuth and a new PCP option.
