Abstract :
In this paper we present a solution for providing a fast handover in wireless networks which involve network access control based on the Extensible Authentication Protocol. We propose an approach based on cryptographically generated identities, which reduces the number of round trips during authentication phase and achieves the objective of reducing the impact on existing EAP deployments.
