Basic Password Exchange within the Flexible Authentication via Secure Tunneling Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP-FAST)

The flexible authentication via secure tunneling EAP method (EAP- FAST) enables secure communication between a peer and a server by using Transport Layer Security (TLS) to establish a mutually authenticated tunnel. Within this tunnel a basic password exchange, based on the generic token card method (EAP-GTC), may be executed to authenticate the peer.
