  We're updating the documentation.  You should be looking at the v3 documentation.   And if you're not using v4, you shouldn't be looking at the v4 documentation.  The "4.0.0" is right there in the URL.

   Just look at the bottom left of the screen, and you can select a version of FreeRADIUS.

  It's a typo.  It's really rlm_eap_md5.

  All packages / docker images of FreeRADIUS will do EAP-TLS.  You don't need anything else.
