Enterprise Level Wi-Fi Protected Access
The T3.9.3 wireless component set was developed to provide Enterprise Level Wi-Fi Protected Access
(WPA) with Full Authentication and associated Credential Caching based on the Meetinghouse AEGIS
Client. These features, as well as earlier wireless features, are available through either the Mobile
Companion application (see Mobile Companion on page 6-4), or through the Meetinghouse AEGIS
Security Client application.
It is strongly recommended that wireless profiles be created and maintained in one application only
and not shared. Profile roaming should be disabled in the application that is not being used.
AEGIS Security Client
The AEGIS Security Client is an implementation of the client side of the IEEE 802.1X - Port Based
Network Access Control protocol. 802.1X access control provides improved security for both wired
and wireless networks. It solves the problem of key distribution in wireless LANs by using public key
authentication and encryption between Wireless Access Points and roaming stations to exchange
dynamic WEP keys. The Client supports both wireless (802.11a/b/g) and Ethernet interfaces.
Additional information and support for the Meetinghouse AEGIS Client is available from the
Meetinghouse Data Communications website at: http://www.mtghouse.com.
