The innovation discloses an AAA-based key/credential distribution system and methodology that is enhanced for establishing a trust relationship between an end device and network application servers which are known at the time of end device authentication. This enhancement can reduce the complexity of key distribution while increasing performance and computational efficiency. By using information that is typically accessible to an AAA server with respect to which instance of a service a client should use based upon load, location, etc., the subject innovation can proactively distribute credentials to an end device. This proactive distribution enables the end device to directly prompt authentication with a network entity.
