  This document defines the @eap.arpa and the associated registry.  It doesn't 
define how entries in the registry are used.  There's a trivial example, but 
it's not fleshed out.

  There have been long discussions about not tying EAP to DHCP.  I forget which 
RFC it is, but there's an IAB architectural document which says this is a bad 
idea.

  I think the supplicant should know what kind of access it's getting.  This is 
also a signal to the RADIUS server as to what kind of authorization to send to 
the NAS / switch.

  In contrast, if there's only one kind of on-boarding access, authorization 
has to be done through DHCP which has much more limited capabilities for that.
