> Issue 348: Definition of Lower Layer
> Submitter name: Vidya Narayanan
> Submitter email address: vidyanqualcomm.com Date
Submitted: April 6,
> 2006
> Reference: http://lists.frascone.com/pipermail/eap/msg04184.html
> Document: Keying-11
> Comment type: E
> Priority: S
> Section: 1.2
> Rationale/Explanation of issue:
>
> I just looked up RFC3748 and the EAP Keying Framework
and realized
> that there isn't a definition for the term
"lower layer". I would
> recommend adding a definition to the terminology
section of the
> keying framework draft. Lower layer, to me means the
layer over which
> EAP runs. Between the peer and the authenticator, this
would be the
> layer that runs the secure association protocol to
derive TSKs, while
> between the authenticator and the AS, this would be the
AAA protocol
> carrying EAP, for instance.
