In this paper, we present a key-management protocol for delegated trust between the user and a set of entities. The protocol is based on IPSec architecture. We draw a mapping from SPIs in IPSec architecture to users requesting a service spread across multiple hosts potentially in different administrative domains. We also outline the application and implementation of the protocol.
