(RADIATOR) Forwarding EAP-PEAP to another Radius server

Mike, Franck,

I have tried this already but then sending the EAP-MSCHAPV2 to an IAS
server which does understand EAP-MSCHAPV2. 

This however did not work and I think this is because the inner request 
in PEAP does not use it's own packet numbering but it uses the 
numbering of the outer request.

Forwarding EAP-MSCHAPV2 within TTLS is possible however because the inner
request is a completly new request but it will only work with certain client(s) 
;)

Regards,

Tom Rixom
