A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Point-to-Point Protocol Extensions Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP)
	Author(s)	: L. Blunk, J. Vollbrecht, B. Aboba
	Filename	: draft-ietf-pppext-rfc2284bis-03.txt
	Pages		: 26
	Date		: 03-Apr-02
	
This document defines the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP), an
authentication protocol which supports multiple authentication
mechanisms. EAP typically runs directly over the link layer without
requiring IP and therefore includes its own support for in-order
delivery and retransmission. Fragmentation is not supported within EAP
itself; however, individual EAP methods may support this.  While EAP was
originally developed for use with PPP, it is also now in use with IEEE
802.

This document obsoletes RFC 2284.

Send a message to:

In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-pppext-rfc2284bis-03.txt".
	
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.

implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
