If you mean 802.1x authentication, I don't think you understand how it 
works. All 802.1x (link layer) authentication methods use EAP, so all 
clients must have SOME kind of supplicant.

Non-802.1x authentication is normally done via some kind of web-based 
login. Google for "captive portal" or "walled garden". The auth types 
you can use with a captive portal depend on the captive portal. See the 
docs for your portal.

I'm afraid this doesn't make sense to me. Can you describe in more 
detail what you're trying to do?
