48 TTLS Settings
It is possible that anonymous EAP-PEAP authentication does not work with
your network authentication server, in which case leave the Anonymous name
blank.
TTLS Settings
Use the TTLS Settings tab to configure EAP-TTLS as an authentication protocol.
These settings are relevant only if you select EAP-TTLS as an authentication
protocol in the Authentication tab.
EAP-TTLS creates a secure encrypted tunnel through which your credentials are
presented to the authentication server. If you use EAP-TTLS with password
credentials, an inner authentication protocol completes the authentication. See
“EAP-TTLS” on page 102 for more information about this protocol.
Selecting an Inner Authentication Protocol
TTLS and PEAP support inner authentication tunnels. Inner authentication provides
an additional level of security by transferring password credentials through an
encrypted tunnel between the client and the authentication server. Table 4 on
page 49 lists the compatible inner and outer authentication protocols for TTLS and
PEAP.
Use the Inner authentication protocol list to select the inner authentication
protocol to use. Consult you network administrator for the recommended corporate
settings for your network.
NOTE: Your outer identity can be anonymous if your list of configured
authentication protocols for this profile includes only EAP-TTLS, EAP-PEAP, and/or
EAP-FAST. If you enable any other protocols, OAC cannot keep your identity
private and the Anonymous name field is disabled.
