Support for WiMAX VSA

[Walter Goulet]

Hi Nitin,

Question on your planned contribution to FreeRADIUS: Does your module
support the key generation algorithms for the WiMAX mobility keys?
Specifically, is your module able to correctly generate the
MN-HA-MIP4-KEY and related key material from the EMSK derived as part
of the EAP exchange?

Personally this was seen as the biggest challenge towards building NWG
compliance into FreeRADIUS as opposed to VSA format.

Thanks,
Walter
