802.11 Wi-Fi is the state of the art WLAN today. 802.11 has two physical layer
standards: 802.11b operating at 2.4GHz (and delivering up to 11Mbps at 250 feet max)
and 802.11a operating at 5GHz (and delivering up to 54Mbps at 150 feet max). A third
standard, 802.11g, providing the speeds of 802.11a at the distances of 802.11b, should
be finalized in late 2003. Although most WLANs today are 802.11b, most enterprises
will use 802.11a
Introduction to EAP-TLS
EAP-TLS is based on SSL v3.0. To better understand EAP-TLS operation, this section
focuses on the operation of TLS with respect to SSL. TLS is designed to provide secure
authentication and encryption for a TCP/IP connection.
Introduction to EAP-MD5 CHAP
EAP-Message Digest 5 Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (EAP-MD5
CHAP) is a required EAP type that uses the same challenge handshake protocol as
PPP-based CHAP, but the challenges and responses are sent as EAP messages.
EAP-MD5 CHAP is described in RFC 2284.
A typical use for EAP-MD5 CHAP is to authenticate the credentials of remote access
clients by using user name and password security systems. You can also use EAP-MD5
CHAP to test EAP interoperability.
