This document defines a master key used between a client of theProtocol for carrying Authentication for Network Access (PANA) and anenforcement point, for bootstrapping lower-layer ciphering. The masterkey is derived from the Master Session Key of the ExtensibleAuthentication Protocol as a result of successful PANA authentication.The master key guarantees cryptographic independence among enforcementpoints bootstrapped from PANA authentication across different addressfamilies.
