Shown as figure 14-14
Authentication type:
1.
PEAP: Protect Extensible Authentication Protocol. PEAP transport securely authenti-
cates data by using tunneling between PEAP clients and an authentication server. PEAP
can authenticate wireless LAN clients using only server-side certificates, thus simplify-
ing the implementation and administration of a secure wireless LAN.
2.
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 cer-
tificates 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.
