Authentication Protocol Registry Values

[This is preliminary documentation and subject to change.]

The setup software for the EAP DLL may create the following registry values beneath <eaptypeid>. These registry values are defined in the raseapif.h header file. The RAS_EAP_VALUENAME_PATH and RAS_EAP_VALUENAME_CONFIGUI values are required.

The setup software may create other keys/value beneath <eaptypeid> as well. These could be used by the authentication protocol itself.
