> Abstract:
>    An IPv4 or IPv6 host can use the Port Control Protocol (PCP) to
>    flexibly manage the IP address and port mapping information on
>    Network Address Translators (NATs) or firewalls to facilitate
>    communication with remote hosts.  However, the un-controlled
>    generation or deletion of IP address mappings on such network devices
>    may cause security risks and should be avoided.  In some cases the
>    client may need to prove that it is authorized to modify, create or
>    delete PCP mappings.  This document describes an in-band
>    authentication mechanism for PCP that can be used in those cases.
>    The Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) is used to perform
>    authentication between PCP devices.
> 
>    This document updates RFC6887.
