Description
IP addresses belong to the network layer and may not be available to the PEP or may not affect many AuthZ decision requests.
If the subject is identified through its IP address, then it should be the subjects "id" attribute.
Also, IPv6 addressing schemes can be rather complex and error-prone, due to multiple variations in syntax:
eg. those are different variants of THE SAME ip address:
- fe80::AbCD:3:2:0001
- Fe80:0:0:0:abcd:0003:0002:0001
- Fe80:0:0:0:abcd:0003:0002:0001%eth1
Its horrid to implement a unification/syntax check on PDPs/PEP side.
recommendation:
- remove the "ipAddress" attribute until further specified.
- or define a dedicated structure with optional, freely defined attributes where an "ipAddress" can be defined as a custom attribute without further specification.
