This page seems to have some serious anti-Cisco slant, possibly to the extent that it violates NPOV. In particular, phrases such as 'Swallowing the Cisco Kool-Aid' have no place in an encyclopdiac entry. Yes, it is true that LEAP as well as MD5 are vulernable to dictionary attacks; however, this article makes such the assinine references that EAP-FAST is likewise going to be insecure which is true speculation and also has no place in this entry. --anon

Thanks for pointing that out: I've cut a few sentences that were blatant, but it still needs work, and the article is pretty hard to understand to boot. I've added a "cleanup" tag. — Matt Crypto 16:29, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
I apologize for that 'Swallowing the Cisco Kool-Aid' comment. This was my first contribution to the Wiki and it was a newbie mistake. I will be more careful in the future. -- George

The EAP should, according to IETF (see http://www3.ietf.org/proceedings/02mar/slides/eap-1/tsld010.htm), be pronounced as "ee ey pee". Schotti 03:22, 16 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This article seems pretty clean. I swapped out the cleanup for diagram becuase security protocols are inherently difficult to understand. --meatclerk 19:16, 23 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
