EAP Method There are 5 methods in the drop-down list.
z
PEAP: Protect Extensible Authentication Protocol. PEAP
transport securely 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.
z TLS-Smart Card: Transport Layer Security. Provides for
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.
z 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.
z EAP-FAST: Flexible Authentication via Secure Tunneling. It
was developed by Cisco. Instead of using a certificate,
mutual authentication is achieved by means of a PAC
(Protected Access Credential) which can be managed
dynamically by the authentication server. The PAC can be
provisioned (distributed one time) to the client either
manually or automatically. Manual provisioning is delivery to
the client via disk or a secured network distribution method.
Automatic provisioning is an in-band, over the air,
distribution.
z MD5-Challenge: Message Digest Challenge. Challenge is
an EAP authentication type that provides base-level EAP
support. It provides for only one-way authentication - there is
no mutual authentication of wireless client and the network.
Tunnel
Authentication Select the desired option from the drop-down list.
Session
Resumption After reconnecting the signal which broke up, you can enable
the session resumption to reduce the transferring packet to
accelerate the speed.
Authentication
ID / Password Enter the required data into the fields.
