Abstract
A method including determining, by a first server, an encrypted authentication packet, the determining including, determining a crypted code field to indicate a type associated with the encryption authentication packet and that at least a portion of the encryption authentication packet is encrypted, and determining a crypted payload based at least in part on encrypting one or more fields of an initial authentication packet; and transmitting, by the first server to a second server, the encrypted authentication packet to enable the first server and the second server to conduct an authentication process. Various other aspects are contemplated.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- determining, by a first server, an encrypted authentication packet, the determining including,
- determining a crypted code field to indicate a type associated with the encryption authentication packet and that at least a portion of the encryption authentication packet is encrypted, and
- determining a crypted payload based at least in part on encrypting one or more fields of an initial authentication packet;
- and
- transmitting, by the first server to a second server, the encrypted authentication packet to enable the first server and the second server to conduct an authentication process.
A first server, comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- a processor communicatively coupled to the memory, the memory and the processor being configured to:
- determine an encrypted authentication packet, wherein to determine the encrypted authentication packet, the memory and the processor are configured to,
- determine a crypted code field to indicate a type associated with the encryption authentication packet and that at least a portion of the encryption authentication packet is encrypted, and
- determine a crypted payload based at least in part on encrypting one or more fields of an initial authentication packet;
- and
- transmit, to a second server, the encrypted authentication packet to enable the first server and the second server to conduct an authentication process.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium configured to store instructions, which when executed by a processor associated with a first server, configure the processor to:
- determine an encrypted authentication packet, wherein to determine the encrypted authentication packet, the processor is configured to,
- determine a crypted code field to indicate a type associated with the encryption authentication packet and that at least a portion of the encryption authentication packet is encrypted, and
- determine a crypted payload based at least in part on encrypting one or more fields of an initial authentication packet;
- and
- transmit, to a second server, the encrypted authentication packet to enable the first server and the second server to conduct an authentication process.
