ABSTRACT:
In a first aspect of the present invention, a Wholesaler dynamically identifies one of a plurality of AAA services at a remote domain to route an access request to. The AAA service is selected based upon a set of rules applied to information which has been received dynamically from the plurality of AAA services and is indicative of load and status of the plurality of AAA services. In a second aspect of the present invention, a Wholesaler, based upon a Service Level Agreement (SLA) between the Wholesaler and a user, routes the user to one of a plurality of sub-service providers.
