"PANA Enabling IPsec based Access Control", Mohan Parthasarathy, 14-Jul-05. ( bytes)

PANA (Protocol for carrying Authentication for Network Access) is a protocol for authenticating clients to the access network using IP based protocols. The PANA protocol authenticates the client and also establishes a PANA security association between the PANA client and PANA authentication agent at the end of a successful authentication. This document discusses the details for establishing an IPsec security association using the PANA security association for enabling IPsec based access control.

"State Machines for Protocol for Carrying Authentication for Network Access (PANA)", Victor Fajardo, Yoshihiro Ohba, Rafa Lopez, 22-Oct-08. ( bytes)

This document defines the conceptual state machines for the Protocol for Carrying Authentication for Network Access (PANA). The state machines consist of the PANA Client (PaC) state machine and the PANA Authentication Agent (PAA) state machine. The two state machines show how PANA can interface with the EAP state machines. The state machines and associated model are informative only. Implementations may achieve the same results using different methods.

"Pre-authentication Support for PANA", Yoshihiro Ohba, 24-Oct-08. ( bytes)

This document defines an extension to the Protocol for carrying Authentication for Network Access (PANA) for proactively establishing a PANA SA (Security Association) between a PaC in one access network and a PAA in another access network to which the PaC may move. The proposed method operates across multiple administrative domains.

"Application of PANA framework to DSL networks", Lionel Moreland, Alper Yegin, Yoshihiro Ohba, John Kaippallimalil, 4-Nov-08. ( bytes)

This document provides guidelines for PANA deployment over DSL access networks. The document specifically describes the introduction of PANA in DSL networks migrating from a traditional PPP access model to a pure IP-based access environment.
