Chapter 3 - Software Reference Config - Authentication This tab allows you to set the security settings to match those of your AP. It is configurable only if you have set Network Authentication to WPA or WPA2 in Config-Encryption tab. Authentication Type The authentication type methods include: PEAP: PEAP (Protected Extensible Authentication Protocol) authentication is a version of Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP). EAP ensures mutual authentication between a wireless client and a server that resides at the network operations center. TLS/Smart Card: TLS (Transport Layer Security) authentication is used to create an encrypted tunnel and achieve server-side authentication in a manner similar to Web server authentication using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol. This method uses digital certificates to verify the identity of a client and server. TTLS: TTLS authentication uses certificates to authenticate the server, while maintaining similar security properties to TLS such as mutual authentication and a shared confidentiality for session WEP key. LEAP: LEAP (Light Extensible Authentication Protocol) authentication is a version of Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP). EAP ensures mutual authentication between a wireless client and a server that resides at the network operations center. Md5-challenge: Md5-challenge is a one-way encryption algorithm that uses usernames and passwords. This method does not support key management, but require a preset key.

Config - Authentication
This tab allows you to set the security settings to match those of your AP. It is
configurable only if you have set Network Authentication to WPA or WPA2 in
Config-Encryption tab.
Authentication Type
The authentication type methods include:
PEAP:
PEAP (Protected Extensible Authentication
Protocol) authentication is a version of Extensible
Authentication Protocol (EAP). EAP ensures
mutual authentication between a wireless
client and a server that resides at the network
operations center.
TLS/Smart Card:
TLS (Transport Layer Security)
authentication is used to create an encrypted
tunnel and achieve server-side authentication in a manner similar to Web server
authentication using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol. This method uses
digital certificates to verify the identity of a client and server.
TTLS:
TTLS authentication uses certificates to authenticate the server, while
maintaining similar security properties to TLS such as mutual authentication and a
shared confidentiality for session WEP key.
LEAP:
LEAP (Light Extensible Authentication Protocol) authentication is a version
of Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP). EAP ensures mutual authentication
between a wireless client and a server that resides at the network operations
center.
Md²-challenge:
Md5-challenge is a one-way encryption algorithm that uses
usernames and passwords. This method does not support key management, but
require a preset key.
