	Title		: Extended Authentication within IKE (XAUTH)
	Author(s)	: S. Beaulieu, R. Pereira

[IKE] allows a device to set up a secure session by using a
bidirectional authentication method using either pre-shared keys or
digital certificates.  However [IKE] does not provide a method to
leverage legacy authentication methods which are widely deployed
today.
This document describes a method for using existing unidirectional
authentication mechanisms such as RADIUS, SecurID, and OTP within
IPSec's ISAKMP protocol.  The purpose of this draft is not to
replace or enhance the existing authentication mechanisms described
in [IKE], but rather to allow them to be extended using legacy
authentication mechanisms.

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
