Appendix D - About Wireless LANs
802.1x
This uses the 802.1x standard for client authentication, and WEP for data encryption. If possi-
ble, you should use WPA-802.1x instead, because WPA encryption is much stronger than
WEP encryption.
If this option is used:
• The Access Point must have a "client login" on the Radius Server.
• Each user must have a "user login" on the Radius Server. Normally, user authentication is
done via a digital certificate, so the Radius login requires no action by the user.
• Each user's wireless client must support 802.1x and provide the login data or digital
certficate when required.
• All data transmission is encrypted using the WEP standard. You only have to select the
WEP key size; the WEP key is automatically generated.
