A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
Title : EAP Mechanism using TLS and SASL (Version 1)
Author(s) : H. Andersson, S. Josefsson

This document specifies an Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP)
mechanism for mutual authentication and session key generation in a
roaming environment. The server authentication and the negotiation of
the session key is done using the PPP EAP Transport Layer Security
Authentication Protocol. The user authenticates using a SASL
mechanism, the SASL authentication being protected by TLS. An
important application discussed in this document is to provide a
strong form of authentication of access points and stations within an
IEEE 802.11 Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN), but other
applications such as LAN access over Bluetooth might also be
considered in the future.

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.
