	 <t>EAP-TTLS is an EAP type that utilizes TLS to establish a secure 
connection between a client and server, through which additional 
information may be exchanged. The initial TLS handshake may mutually 
authenticate client and server; or it may perform a one-way 
authentication, in which only the server is authenticated to the 
client. The secure connection established by the initial handshake 
may then be used to allow the server to authenticate the client 
using existing, widely-deployed authentication infrastructures such 
as RADIUS. The authentication of the client may itself be EAP, or it 
may be another authentication protocol such as PAP, CHAP, MS-CHAP or 
MS-CHAP-V2. 

Thus, EAP-TTLS allows legacy password-based authentication protocols 
to be used against existing authentication databases, while 
protecting the security of these legacy protocols against 
eavesdropping, man-in-the-middle and other cryptographic attacks. 

EAP-TTLS also allows client and server to exchange other information 
in addition to authentication-related information. 

This document describes EAP-TTLSv1; that is, version 1 of the EAP-
TTLS protocol. It represents a significant enhancement to the 
original version 0 of the protocol. EAP-TTLSv1 utilizes an extended 
version of TLS, called TLS/IA (TLS/InnerApplication) as its 
underlying protocol [TLS/IA].
