The EAP Smart Card Protocol (EAP-SC) defines an EAP Method and
Multiplexing model for the support of Smart Card based
authentication methods. EAP-SC provides a uniform framework for
interfacing with Smart Cards within the EAP [RFC3748] context. EAP-
SC provides for encapsulation of other EAP methods (such as [EAP-
TLS], [EAP-SIM] and [EAP-AKA]).
Smart Cards are hardware security devices that are widely used in
data and voice networks to authenticate users and devices, and to
enforce security policies on the client platform.
EAP-SC enhances the security of authentication methods by enabling
the use of Smart Cards for the secure provisioning and storage of
keys and credentials, and the secure execution of security sensitive
functions. In addition, EAP-SC provides security requirements for
the support of Smart Card based Authentication Methods that ensure a
uniform level of security complementary to the underlying
authentication method.

In the body type:

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.
