#  Whatever you do, do NOT set 'Auth-Type := EAP'.  The server
#  is smart enough to figure this out on its own.  The most
#  common side effect of setting 'Auth-Type := EAP' is that the
#  users then cannot use ANY other authentication method.
#
# EAP types NOT listed here may be supported via the "eap2" module.
# See experimental.conf for documentation.

                #  The incoming EAP messages DO NOT specify which EAP
                #  type they will be using, so it MUST be set here.
