The Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP), defined in RFC 3748,
provides a standard mechanism for support of multiple authentication
methods. EAP-TLS and other TLS-based EAP methods are widely deployed
and used for network access authentication. Large certificates and
long certificate chains combined with authenticators that drop an EAP
session after only 40 - 50 round trips is a major deployment problem.
This document looks at this problem in detail and describes the
potential solutions available.
This document is a product of the EAP Method Update Working Group of the IETF.
