  1. The roadwarriors <b>carol</b> and <b>dave</b> set up a connection each to gateway <b>moon</b>
  2. using EAP-TTLS authentication only with the gateway presenting a server certificate and
  3. the clients doing EAP-MD5 password-based authentication.
  4. In a next step the EAP-TNC protocol is used within the EAP-TTLS tunnel to determine the
  5. health of <b>carol</b> and <b>dave</b> via the <b>TNCCS 2.0 </b> client-server interface
  6. compliant with <b>RFC 5793 PB-TNC</b>. The IMC and IMV communicate are using the <b>IF-M</b>
  7. protocol defined by <b>RFC 5792 PA-TNC</b>.
  8. <p>
  9. The first time around both <b>carol</b> and <b>dave</b> fail the health test but they
  10. request a handshake retry. After remediation <b>carol</b> succeeds but <b>dave</b>
  11. still fails. Thus based on this second round of measurements the clients are connected
  12. by gateway <b>moon</b> to the "rw-allow" and "rw-isolate" subnets, respectively.
