Title : Authenticated Service Information for the
Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP)
Author(s) : J. Arkko, P. Eronen
Filename : draft-arkko-eap-service-identity-auth-04.txt
Pages : 26

EAP is typically used in an arrangement where the actual service
(such as a wireless LAN access point) is separated from the
authentication server. However, EAP itself does not have a concept
of a service identity or its parameters, and thus the client usually
does not authenticate any information about the service itself, even
when a mutually authenticating EAP method is used. This document
specifies a backward compatible extension to popular EAP methods for
authenticating service related information, such as the identity and
type of the offered service. A common parameter name space is
created in order to ensure that the same kinds of identifiers can be
authenticated independent of the choice of the EAP authentication
method, retaining the EAP media independence principle.

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.
