We are also interested in this. From what I've been able to determine so 
far, some percentage of the NAC conversation is tunneled in the EAPoL 
packets and passed from the radius server to the apropriate access 
control server. This would lead me to believe that most of the server 
implementations are going to be proprietary to the access-control client 
vendor, which is unfortunate.
