This memo defines the requirements for a tunnel-based Extensible
Authentication Protocol (EAP) Method.  This tunnel method will use
Transport Layer Security (TLS) to establish a secure tunnel.  The
tunnel will provide support for password authentication, EAP
authentication, and the transport of additional data for other
purposes.  This document is not an Internet Standards Track 
specification; it is published for informational purposes.

This document is a product of the EAP Method Update Working Group of the IETF.
