The IESG has approved the following document: - 'The eap.arpa. domain and EAP provisioning' (draft-ietf-emu-eap-arpa-10.txt) as Proposed Standard
This document is the product of the EAP Method Update Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Paul Wouters and Deb Cooley. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-emu-eap-arpa/ Technical Summary This document defines the eap.arpa domain as a way for Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) peers to signal to EAP servers that they wish to obtain limited, and unauthenticated, network access. EAP peers signal which kind of access is required via certain pre- defined identifiers which use the Network Access Identifier (NAI) format of RFC 7542. A table of identifiers and meanings is defined, which includes entries for RFC 9140. Working Group Summary Of those active in the WG, there was broad agreement to advance this ancillary specification. Perhaps more telling, there’s already another (Standards Track) draft that makes use of this specification. The IETF LC and its Directorate reviews also gathered more reviews and a revision. Document Quality This is an ancillary document in so much as it specifies the contents of an EAP NAI and an IANA registry for those values. Thus, the implementations of this specification are embodied in the implementation of specific EAP methods. It is already compatible with existing EAP implementations. Those implementations will not, of course, reference this specification, but the WIP draft-ietf-emu-bootstrapped-tls does reference this draft and use its IANA NAI registry. Personnel The Document Shepherd for this document is Peter E. Yee. The Responsible Area Director is Paul Wouters. _______________________________________________ Emu mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
