1.4 Relationship to Other Protocols

A host that implements the client or server role of Peer authentication typically implements the same role in the BITS Peer-Caching: Content Retrieval Protocol, as specified in [MS-BPCR], and the BITS Peer-Caching: Peer Discovery Protocol, as specified in [MS-BPDP].

Peer authentication depends upon connection-oriented RPC, as specified in [MS-RPCE] section 3.3, and relies on the message authentication and security features of the Kerberos Protocol as specified in [MS-KILE].
