Abstract
The Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) provides an extensible interface to various authentication mechanisms. Some EAP methods derive cryptographic material between the EAP peers; these keys can be used, for instance, with IEEE 802.11i encryption. This document proposes a mechanism that can be used to derive cryptographically separate keys for more than one cryptographic application, such as protecting subsequent EAP messages, distributing credentials for re- authentication, or handoff mechanisms involving multiple WLAN access points.
