AC Pull with multiple profiles



Hi Folks,

it seems that theres an obvious (?) limitation with the pull model when
dealing
with multiple profiles (i.e. a subject owns multiple ACs, according to
certain profiles).

That is, for a subject that owns multiple ACs, how can the server know which
AC to pull
from the AC repository for a given client request? The client *could*
specify a profile for the
server to use in it's LAAP request as a part of client-server exchanges, but
this would make
it qualify as a push model as well...?

If this is a downside to the pull model, then perhaps it could be mentioned
as such in the draft(s).

Cheers,

Andy
