Hi,

A few comments:

This reads to me like a protocol specification and it was produced by
an IETF WG so I would expect it to be Standards Track rather than
Informational.

Wi-Fi is hyphenated. Please globally replaced "WiFi" with "Wi-Fi".

There seems to be an empty bullet point near the top of page 6.

"shall" -> MUST

Section 5: I think the usual IETF style would be to specify Length
after each diagram but, admittedly, that's pretty redundant in this
case...

References:
   It seems to me that the references to the 3GPP document or
documents that specify these protocol blobs being added to EAP AKA and
EAP SIM, and probably most of the references to EAP, should be
Normative References.
   I believe there should be a reference to IEEE Std 802.11-2012.

Thanks,
Donald
