I am trying to calculate the Compound MAC for EAP-TEAP. But the description in the rfc 7170 is bit confusing
Very much so. The short answer is that this list is about FreeRADIUS. If you're implementing an EAP type for another piece of software, there are likely other places to go. The FreeRADIUS source code for the compound MAC calculation is in src/modules/rlm_eap/types/rlm_eap_teap.
Could any please help me in understanding the Compound MAC calculation or guide me in the right direction
Don't read RFC 7170. It's confusing, and substantially wrong. Read the updated document, which is soon to be published: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-emu-rfc7170bis/11/ It's not only clearer, but it's what Microsoft / FreeRADIUS / Cisco / hostap / etc. have all done. Alan DeKok.
