„ LEAP
Cisco LEAP (Light Extensible Authentication Protocol) has been developed by Cisco Systems, Inc. which
uses a user ID and password for authentication.
„ EAP-FAST
EAP-FAST (Extensible Authentication Protocol-Flexible Authentication via Secured Tunnel) has been
developed by Cisco Systems, Inc. which uses a user ID and password for authentication, and symmetric
key algorithms to achieve a tunneled authentication process.
The Brother machine supports the following inner authentications:
• EAP-FAST/NONE
EAP-FAST authentication for CCXv3 networks. Does not use an inner authentication method.
• EAP-FAST/MS-CHAPv2
EAP-FAST authentication for CCXv4 networks. Uses MS-CHAPv2 for the inner authentication method.
• EAP-FAST/GTC
EAP-FAST authentication for CCXv4 networks. Uses GTC for the inner authentication method.
Encryption methods
3
Encryption is used to secure the data that is sent over the wireless network. The Brother wireless machine
supports the following encryption methods:
„ None
No encryption method is used.
„ WEP
By using WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy), the data is transmitted and received with a secure key.
„ TKIP
TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) provides per-packet key mixing a message integrity check and
rekeying mechanism.
„ AES
AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) is the Wi-Fi
®
authorized strong encryption standard.
„ CKIP
The original Key Integrity Protocol for LEAP by Cisco Systems, Inc.
