Table 3-6 Authentication: 802.1x Setting: Ceritication
LABEL DESCRIPTION
Authentication Type
PEAP: Protected Extensible Authentication Protocol. PEAP transports
authentication data by using tunneling between PEAP clients and an
authentication server. PEAP can authenticate wireless LAN clients using
only server-side certificates, thus simplifying the implementation and
administration of a secure wireless LAN.
TLS/Smart Card: Transport Layer Security, provides with
certificate-based and mutual authentication of the client and the network.
It relies on client-side and server-side certificates to perform
authentication and can be used to dynamically generate user-based and
session-based WEP keys to secure subsequent communications
between the WLAN client and the access point.
TTLS: Tunneled Transport Layer Security, this security method provides
for certificate-based, mutual authentication of the client and network
through an encrypted channel. Unlike EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS requires
only server-side certificates.
MD5-Challenge: Message Digest Challenge, is an EAP authentication
type that provides base-level EAP support. It only supports one-way
authentication i.e. there is no mutual authentication of wireless client and
the network. It’s only valid for profile’s authentication type to be none or
shared.
