Author(s) : J. Arkko, B. Aboba
Filename : draft-ietf-eap-netsel-problem-03.txt
Pages : 31
Date : 2005-10-25
The so called network discovery and selection problem affects network
access, particularly in the presence of multiple available wireless
accesses and roaming. This problem has been the subject of
discussions in various standards bodies. This document summarizes
the discussion held about this problem in the Extensible
Authentication Protocol (EAP) working group at the IETF. The problem
is defined and divided into subproblems, and some constraints for
possible solutions are outlined. The document presents also some
existing mechanisms which help solve at least parts of the problem,
and gives some suggestions on how to proceed for the rest.

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.
