Title : RADIUS Support For Extensible Authentication Protocol
(EAP)
Author(s) : B. Aboba, P. Calhoun
Filename : draft-aboba-radius-rfc2869bis-22.txt
Pages : 42

This document defines Remote Authentication Dial In User Service
(RADIUS) support for the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP), an
authentication framework which supports multiple authentication
mechanisms. In the proposed scheme, the Network Access Server (NAS)
forwards EAP packets to and from the RADIUS server, encapsulated within
EAP-Message attributes. This has the advantage of allowing the NAS to
support any EAP authentication method, without the need for method-
specific code, which resides on the RADIUS server. While EAP was
originally developed for use with PPP, it is now also in use with IEEE
802.
This document updates RFC 2869.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
