This page seems to have some serious anti-Cisco slant, possibly to the extent that it violates NPOV. In particular, phrases such as 'Swallowing the Cisco Kool-Aid' have no place in an encyclopdiac entry. Yes, it is true that LEAP as well as MD5 are vulernable to dictionary attacks; however, this article makes such the assinine references that EAP-FAST is likewise going to be insecure which is true speculation and also has no place in this entry. --anon

Line 35 ⟶ 32:

It is also stated that EAP-MD5 is the only standards track EAP application, but this is not strictly correct -- the Diameter EAP application (RFC 4072) is also standards track. [[User:Kjetilho|Kjetilho]] ([[User talk:Kjetilho|talk]]) 11:58, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

EAP-MD5 _was_ the only standards track EAP ''method'' for quite some time. RFC 4072 is an EAP encapsulation for Diameter, not a method. However, since your comment the IETF EAP Methods Update (EMU) Working Group has passed EAP-GPSK (RFC 5433) and others are in progress.

== Merge proposal ==

Line 50 ⟶ 49:

Some [[Extensible Authentication Protocol|EAP]] methods establish a secure tunnel between an authenticator and the home AAA server before the transmission of sensitive data, providing relief for most of those concerns. In these cases, there is sometimes an ''outer identity'' in clear text transmitted outside the EAP tunnel - visible to proxies so they can route packets - which doesn't have to reveal much about the user's true identity, and an ''inner identity'' that does, which is transmitted inside the secure EAP tunnel.<nowiki>{{Fact|date=April 2009}}</nowiki>

Those are Wi-Fi Alliance labels for the fact they are now testing the listed EAP methods as part of their WFA Wi-Fi branding.

== Add EAP registry numbers ==

Most of communication and endpoint device’s configuration file are using EAP registry numbers defined by [[IANA]] [https://www.iana.org/assignments/eap-numbers/eap-numbers.xhtml here].--[[User:Imlibra925|imlibra925]] ([[User talk:Imlibra925|talk]]) 19:04, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

== Possible vandalism - external links and references purged ==

I just noticed that the external references are not links to anything and there are no references on the page. This appears to have been done in an edit [[Special:Permalink/826511883|on February 19, 2018]]. Should this be reverted? I would think it should be, but since it's been present for four months, perhaps there is a reason why nobody has reverted it yet?

== Is there a way to know if an equipement is implementing the EAP-PWD ? ==
