hostapd has a limit in the EAP server role on the number of round trips (and wpa_supplicant in the EAP peer role). However, there is no such limit in the EAP authenticator role, i.e., hostapd as the access point forwarding EAP to an external RADIUS authentication server does not place such a constraint on the exchange. -- Jouni Malinen PGP id EFC895FA _______________________________________________ Emu mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/emu
