Appendix B Authentication and Encryption methods for an enterprise wireless network B Enterprise wireless network is a large network, for example using your machine in a business enterprise wireless network, with IEEE802.1x support. If you configure your machine in an IEEE802.1x supported wireless network, you can use following authentication and encryption methods. Authentication methods B EAP-FAST EAP-FAST (Extensible Authentication Protocol-Flexible Authentication via Secured Tunnel) has been developed by Cisco Systems, Inc. which uses a user ID and password for authentication, and symmetric key algorithms to achieve a tunnelled authentication process. The Brother machine supports the following inner authentications: • EAP-FAST/NONE • EAP-FAST/MS-CHAPv2 • EAP-FAST/GTC PEAP PEAP (Protected Extensible Authentication Protocol) has been developed by Microsoft Corporation, Cisco Systems and RSA Security. PEAP creates an encrypted SSL (Secure Sockets Layer)/TLS (Transport B Layer Security) tunnel between a client and an authentication server, for sending a user ID and password. PEAP provides mutual authentication between the server and the client. The Brother machine supports the following inner authentications: • PEAP/MS-CHAPv2 • PEAP/GTC EAP-TTLS EAP-TTLS (Extensible Authentication Protocol Tunnelled Transport Layer Security) has been developed by Funk Software and Certicom. EAP-TTLS creates a similar encrypt SSL tunnel to PEAP, between a client and an authentication server, for sending a user ID and password. EAP-TTLS provides mutual authentication between the server and the client. The Brother machine supports the following inner authentications: • EAP-TTLS/CHAP • EAP-TTLS/MS-CHAP • EAP-TTLS/MS-CHAPv2 • EAP-TTLS/PAP EAP-TLS EAP-TLS (Extensible Authentication Protocol Transport Layer Security) requires digital certificate authentication both at a client and an authentication server. 28
