Sure. But it's been hard to find out what is put *into* it. That
link has been missing.

Instead, the switch receives the CAK from the authentication server in the Access-Accept message at the end of the IEEE 802.1X authentication. The CAK is delivered in the RADIUS vendor-specific attributes (VSAs) MS-MPPE-Send-Key and MS-MPPE-Recv-Key. Along with the CAK, the authentication server sends an EAP key identifier that is derived from the EAP exchange and is delivered to the authenticator in the EAP Key-Name attribute of the Access-Accept message."

OK.

That's not clear to me from the above description. But if it works...
We'll be releasing 2.2.1 shortly. I think this change can go into it.
