Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) is a PPP extension that provides support for additional authentication methods within PPP. Transport Level Security (TLS) provides mutual authentication, integrity-protected negotiation, and key exchange between two endpoints. Therefore, EAP-TLS, which includes support for fragmentation and reassembly, provides for these TLS mechanisms within EAP. Windows Embedded CE supports EAP-TLS.

Registry Settings

The following example shows the registry settings for TLS.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\EAP\Extension\13]
