#define EAP_CODE_REQUEST   1

EAP request.

Definition at line 28 of file eap.h.

◆ EAP_CODE_RESPONSE

#define EAP_CODE_RESPONSE   2

EAP response.

Definition at line 31 of file eap.h.

Definition at line 50 of file eap.h.

◆ EAP_TYPE_MD5

#define EAP_TYPE_MD5   4

EAP MD5 challenge request/response.

Definition at line 53 of file eap.h.

◆ EAP_TYPE_MSCHAPV2

#define EAP_TYPE_MSCHAPV2   26

EAP MS-CHAPv2 request/response.

Definition at line 64 of file eap.h.

◆ EAP_CODE_SUCCESS

#define EAP_CODE_SUCCESS   3

EAP success.

Definition at line 93 of file eap.h.

◆ EAP_CODE_FAILURE

#define EAP_CODE_FAILURE   4

EAP failure.

Definition at line 96 of file eap.h.

◆ EAP_BLOCK_TIMEOUT

#define EAP_BLOCK_TIMEOUT   ( 45 * TICKS_PER_SEC )

EAP link block timeout.

We mark the link as blocked upon receiving a Request-Identity, on the basis that this most likely indicates that the switch will not yet be forwarding packets.

There is no way to tell how frequently the Request-Identity packet will be retransmitted by the switch. The default value for Cisco switches seems to be 30 seconds, so treat the link as blocked for 45 seconds.

Definition at line 117 of file eap.h.

◆ EAP_WAIT_TIMEOUT

#define EAP_WAIT_TIMEOUT   ( EAP_BLOCK_TIMEOUT * 7 / 8 )

EAP protocol wait timeout.

In the EAP model, the supplicant is a pure responder. The model also defines no acknowledgement response for the final Success or Failure "requests". This leaves open the possibility that the final Success or Failure packet is lost, with the supplicant having no way to determine the final authentication status.

Sideband mechanisms such as EAPoL-Start may be used to restart the entire EAP process, as a (crude) workaround for this protocol flaw. When expecting to receive a further EAP request (e.g. an authentication challenge), we may wait for some length of time before triggering this restart. Choose a duration that is shorter than the link block timeout, so that there is no period during which we erroneously leave the link marked as not blocked.

Definition at line 135 of file eap.h.

◆ EAP_FL_ONGOING

#define EAP_FL_ONGOING   0x0001

EAP authentication is in progress.

This indicates that we have received an EAP Request-Identity, but have not yet received a final EAP Success or EAP Failure.

Definition at line 164 of file eap.h.

◆ EAP_FL_PASSIVE

#define EAP_FL_PASSIVE   0x0002

EAP supplicant is passive.

This indicates that the supplicant should not transmit any futher unsolicited packets (e.g. EAPoL-Start for a supplicant running over EAPoL). This could be because authentication has already completed, or because we are relying upon MAC Authentication Bypass (MAB) which may have a very long timeout.

Definition at line 174 of file eap.h.
