The Internet Key Exchange (IKEv2) protocol supports several
mechanisms for authenticating the parties, including signatures with
public-key certificates, shared secrets, and Extensible
Authentication Protocol (EAP) methods.  Currently, each endpoint uses
only one of these mechanisms to authenticate itself.  This document
specifies an extension to IKEv2 that allows the use of multiple
authentication exchanges, using either different mechanisms or the
same mechanism.  This extension allows, for instance, performing
certificate-based authentication of the client host followed by an
EAP authentication of the user.  When backend authentication servers
are used, they can belong to different administrative domains, such
as the network access provider and the service provider.  This memo 
defines an Experimental Protocol for the Internet community.
