I need to send access-challenge request with state and Reply-Message "Enter TOTP" inside of inner-tunnel of EAP-TTLS/PAP Protocol which will prompt the user to enter TOTP and send the access request again and will process and authenticate the user for MFA.

  There is no mechanism in the EAP-TTLS protocol where you can send an Access-Challenge back to the end user device.  Even if you sent a Reply-Message to it inside of the TTLS tunnel, the end user device would ignore it.

  No EAP-TTLS supplicant supports prompting users with a challenge.
