Activating LEAP
The LEAP (Lightweight Extensible Authentication Protocol) section of the application allows
you to increase the security of your device by setting the SSID, username, password, and
domain to ensure that no one can access your network without your permission. Most 802.11
access points offer by default a form of authentication called open systems authentication,
which is this device’s default setting. In this mode, the access point grants approval for any
request for authentication. The client simply sends an authentication request frame, and the
access point responds with an authentication approval. This lets anyone having the correct
SSID to associate with the access point. For LEAP to work correctly, both the access point
and the receiving device (your SX66 Phone) must be set with the same username and
password, and SSID.
