Title: MIPv6 Authorization and Configuration based on EAP
State: Active
Authors: Gerardo Giaretta

This draft defines an architecture, and related protocols, for performing
dynamic Mobile IPv6 authorization and configuration relaying on a AAA
infrastructure. The necessary interaction between the AAA server of the
home provider and the mobile node is realized using EAP, exploiting the
capability of some EAP methods to convey generic information items together
with authentication data. This approach has the advantage that the access
equipment acts just as a pass-through for EAP messages and therefore does
not play any active role in the Mobile IPv6 negotiation procedure, which
makes the solution easier to deploy and maintain.
