Hi , 

In the IAKERB draft, the followins is said : 

 ===========

6. The IAKERB proxy protocol :
...
The IAKERB proxy is responsible for locating an appropriate KDC using the realm
information in the KDC request message it received from the client.
...
 ============

I appologize for my misleading affirmation, The IAKERB proxy can
be used by the client to obtain cross realm ticket that can be used
in the visited realm. 

I was referring to a KDC instead of an IAKERB proxy. My thoughts are
that these proxying functionalities should be moved to the KDC of
the visited realm. But this would be another topic that I wish to
start soon.

Best Regards,
Saber.
