name: PANA
full_form: Protocol for Carrying Authentication for Network Access
context: takes the role of EAP authentication server The solution has potential impact on the following parts of the system: - Potentially new NF: A new network function AAuF may need to be developed which interfaces with the UPF and can invoke the related SBA-based interfaces of the UDM/ARPF. The potential new NF needs to support the PANA and EAPoL protocols since the authentication method is EAP-AKA' and UP PDU sessions are of the IP or Ethernet type respectively. - UDM/ARPF: The UDM/ARPF may require distinguishing and possibly recording the network function which requests authentication. - UE: The PANA and EAPoL protocols need to be supported on the UE side. The advantages of this solution are: - The solution uses IP based interfaces which fulfils the requirements on the KI #2 for transport independence The disadvantages of this solution are: - Impact on the UE and core network for the support of the PANA and EAPoL protocols - The solution is applicable for two out of three PDU session
description: PANA (Protocol for Carrying Authentication for Network Access) is a protocol used for carrying authentication information for network access. It works in conjunction with EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) to provide secure authentication mechanisms for accessing the network.
explanation: The text explicitly states that PANA is a protocol designed for carrying authentication information, placing it within the category of protocols.
