In 802.11,if 802.1x authentication messages are not be encrypted,user are vulnerable
to denial of service.For example,attackers can send error response to authenticator
before the valid user because of media contention(DCF),so the authenticator will set
controlled-port "unauthorized".
To
if using EAP-MD5 authentication mechanism,how to deliver key to authenticator?
I want to know that is why. do you know?
I think that is what the quoted passage means. I would guess that it is
stated because the EAPOL frames are meant to be "host to switch"
communication, and therefore, tagging is not needed.

I'm not sure, but I guess there will be no 802.1Q VLAN tagging, while there will be
802.1p prioritization tagging.
I mean, those frames would not use the VLAN tagging fields, while they would use the
priority fields.
Could somebody confirm?

hi
In 7.4 of IEEE Std 802.1x-2001, why to say " EAPOL frames transmitted by a PAE
shall not be VLAN tagged, but may optionally be priority tagged"?
