Hi Sam,

Since authorization and accounting with the use of the
pre-authentication may be different from those with the use of normal
authentication, it would be good to differentiate pre-auth and without
pre-auth for network access authentication protocols that support
pre-authentication, PANA and 802.11 are such protocols as far as I know.

BTW, I also commented about adding IEEE 802.16m and IEEE 802.21a for
EAP lower-layers.  Here is the references for them:

IEEE 802.16m: "Standard for Local and Metropolitan Area Networks -
Part 16: Air Interface for Broadband Wireless Access Systems -
Advanced Air Interface", IEEE 802.16m-2011, 2011.

IEEE 802.21a: "Draft Standard for Local and metropolitan area
networks-Part 21: Media Independent Handover Services Amendment 2:
Security Extensions to Media Independent Handover Services and
Protocol", IEEE P802.21a/D04, 2011.

Regards,
Yoshihiro Ohba
