(page 196).
2 Enter your unique User Name to use this protocol.

EAP-FAST (EAP-Flexible Authentication via Secured Tunnel )
The EAP-FAST protocol is a client-server security architecture that
encrypts EAP transactions with a TLS tunnel. While similar to PEAP, it
differs significantly as EAP-FAST tunnel establishment is based on strong
secrets unique to users. These secrets are called Protected Access Credentials
(PACs), which CiscoSecure ACS generates using a master key known only
to CiscoSecure ACS. Because handshakes based upon shared secrets are
intrinsically faster than handshakes based upon PKI, EAP-FAST is the sig-
nificantly faster of the two solutions that provide encrypted EAP transac-
tions. No certificate management is required to implement EAP-FAST.
