[Emu] [IANA #1228907] TEAP parameters registry?

[Amanda Baber via RT <[e-mail]>]

Hi Alan, all,

I have some background information:

The links to EAP-FAST parameters at https://www.iana.org/assignments/eap-numbers weren't part of an attempt to create an authoritative set of links to other EAP registries, but were left there because those registries were moved to https://www.iana.org/assignments/eap-fast-parameters in 2008.

You can see those registries in an early version of eap-numbers:

https://web.archive.org/web/20081007073400/https://www.iana.org/assignments/eap-numbers

However, we were specifically asked to add links to the EAP-NOOB registries. This isn't a usual practice, but we can add further links here if the WG chairs agree.

We don't have a great number of categorization tools available, although we could place registry names in multiple categories at https://www.iana.org/protocols, or consolidate them into fewer categories. (In the future, we should have more sophisticated options, but we don't have an ETA for this.)

Would it be useful for us to label the EAP-FAST links "Moved to [URL]." rather than "See [URL]"?

thanks,

Amanda Baber
