context: 5.4.1.2.4.1 General The purpose of the EAP message reliable transport procedure is to provide a reliable transport of an EAP-request message, the ngKSI and the ABBA from the network to the UE and of an EAP-response message from the UE to the network. The EAP message reliable transport procedure is initiated by an AUTHENTICATION REQUEST message with the EAP message IE. 5.4.1.2.4.2 EAP message reliable transport procedure initiation by the network In order to initiate the EAP message reliable transport procedure, the AMF shall create an AUTHENTICATION REQUEST message. The AMF shall set the EAP message IE of the AUTHENTICATION REQUEST message to the EAP-request message to be sent to the UE. The AMF shall set the ngKSI IE of the AUTHENTICATION REQUEST message to the ngKSI value selected in subclause 5.4.1.2.2.2, subclause 5.4.1.2.3.1 or subclause 5.4.1.2.3A.1. In this release of specification, the AMF shall set the ABBA IE of the AUTHENTICATION REQUEST message with the length of ABBA IE to 2 and the ABBA contents to be 2 octets in length with value 0000H as described in subclause 9.11.3.10. The AMF shall send the AUTHENTICATION REQUEST message to the UE, and the AMF shall start timer T3560 (see example in figure 5.4.1.2.4.2.1). Figure 5.4.1.2.4.2.1: EAP message reliable transport procedure Upon receipt of an AUTHENTICATION REQUEST message with the EAP message IE, the UE handles the EAP message received in the EAP message IE and the ABBA of the AUTHENTICATION REQUEST message.
description: The Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) is a protocol used for providing reliable transport of authentication messages between the network and user equipment (UE). It plays a crucial role in the authentication process, enabling secure communication by ensuring that authentication requests and responses are transmitted reliably. EAP supports multiple authentication methods, making it extensible and adaptable to various network environments.
explanation: EAP is classified as a Protocol because it defines the rules for data transmission related to authentication messages between the network (specifically, the AMF) and the UE. It outlines procedures for initiating the authentication process, handling authentication requests and responses, and ensuring reliable transport of these messages.
