PEAP (Protected EAP)

Like EAP-TTLS, server-side certificate authentication is used to establish a secure connection,

then use simple username and password methods through the secured connection to

authenticate the clients, thus hiding client identity. However, PEAP only supports EAP

methods, such as EAP-MD5, EAP-MSCHAPv2 and EAP-GTC (EAP-Generic Token Card),

for client authentication. EAP-GTC is implemented only by Cisco.

LEAP

LEAP (Lightweight Extensible Authentication Protocol) is a Cisco implementation of IEEE

802.1x.

Dynamic WEP Key Exchange

The AP maps a unique key that is generated with the RADIUS server. This key expires when

the wireless connection times out, disconnects or reauthentication times out. A new WEP key

is generated each time reauthentication is performed.

If this feature is enabled, it is not necessary to configure a default encryption key in the

Wireless screen. You may still configure and store keys here, but they will not be used while

Dynamic WEP is enabled.

Note: EAP-MD5 cannot be used with Dynamic WEP Key Exchange

For added security, certificate-based authentications (EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS and PEAP) use

dynamic keys for data encryption. They are often deployed in corporate environments, but for

public deployment, a simple user name and password pair is more practical. The following

table is a comparison of the features of authentication types.
