L2TP-based EAD

EAD authenticates PPP users that pass the access authentication. PPP users that pass EAD authentication can access network resources. PPP users that fail EAD authentication can only access the resources in the quarantine areas.

EAD uses the following procedure:

  1. The iNode client uses L2TP to access the LNS. After the client passes the PPP authentication, the CAMS/IMC server assigns isolation ACLs to the LNS. The LNS uses the isolation ACLs to filter incoming packets.

  2. After the IPCP negotiation, the LNS sends the IP address of the CAMS/IMC server to the iNode client. The server IP address is permitted by the isolation ACLs.

  3. The CAMS/IMC server authenticates the iNode client and performs security check for the iNode client. If the iNode client passes security check, the CAMS/IMC server assigns security ACLs for the iNode client to the LNS. The iNode client can access network resources.
