Description of issue: EAP Key management framework I-D currently says in Page 14

"
IKEv2, defined in [RFC4306], handles the derivation of unicast
     security associations (phase 2a), while the derivation of multicast
     security associations (phase 2b) is handled in a separate group key
     management protocol, as described in [RFC4046]. "

The problem is 4046 describes MSEC's group key management framework and not a particular key management protocol. MSEC has specified three key management protocols for group key establishment and they are GDOI, GSAKMP and MIKEY and is working on a third GKDP (this one is *similar* to IKEv2).

I'd also suggest using the phrase "establishment of multicast SAs" instead of "derivation ..."
