EAP Generic-Token is intended to support a range of
authentication tokens from various vendors. In this context, a ‘token’ is
a small device that the end user carries and which displays a login
passcode that is used to authenticate the user. Examples are RSA SecurID,
Encotone TeleID and Vasco tokens. Most such systems have back end servers
that do the actual authentication. EAP Generic-Token does not support
dynamic WEP keys.
EAP Generic-Token can be used with Radiator AuthBy
clauses ACE, LDAPDIGIPASS, SQLDIGIPASS, OTP and RSAAM to support one-time
passwords. It can also be used with all AuthBy clauses that support static
passwords, such as FILE, SQL, LDAP, UNIX etc. In this case, it prompts the
user ‘Enter your static password’.
