Hi All,



I was seeing the feasiblity of using
IEEE 802.1x  EPOL code for handling the 

PKMv2 Eap authentication.



MY network model is as given below.

 

EAP-method        
                     
                     
                     
                     
        EAP-method

EAP          
                EAP   EAP
 ;            EAP EAP      
                     
            EAP

PKMv2          
           PKMv2 ???      
     ??? RADIUS            
                     
 RADIUS

------------        
           ------------      
            -------------------------  
                     
   -----------

MSS/EAP_peer    BS/EAP_Proxy
    Gateway/EAP_Authenticator     AS



The link between BS and MS is wireless
using 802.16e(Wibro)

BS acts as a relay agnet and having
functionality.

 1. On uplink BS removes EAP pdus
from the PKMv2 encapsulation, encapsulates the EAP and then send the packet
using 

     auth relay protocol
to authencticator which is a RADIUS client.

      

 2. On downlink BS removes EAP
pdus from a proprietary protocol  encapsulation,

encapsulates them in PKMv2 and  
 forwards them to the MSS



Can u just give me some idea how to
implement the Authentication process in each networking entity.

Mostly regarding the key implemantaion.



MSK(master session Key),?

Who and how to generate  PMK and
AK?


 



Regards,

Rengith Thomas

IEEE 802.16e does not support IEEE 802.1X authentication,
because with 
802.16 (like PPP), authentication is required prior to
bringing the link up. 
  Therefore EAP packets encapsulated in a dataframe prior to
"link up" will 
be dropped.
