802.1X
—802.1X security enforces authentication of a network node before it
can begin to exchange data with the network. This mode is for environments
with a Remote Access Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) infrastructure. This
environment requires advanced technical support to set up and maintain, and
is intended for use by larger organizations.
•
WPA-Enterprise/WPA2-Enterprise
—The network is operating in 802.1X
authentication mode. This mode is for environments with a Remote Access
Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) infrastructure. This environment requires
advanced technical support to set up and maintain and is intended for use by
larger organizations. The WPA-Enterprise protocol uses either WPA or
WPA2 protocols based on the WPA/WPA2 security protocols available on
the AP.
•
CCKM
—An authentication method in which a Cisco-branded access point
is configured to provide Cisco Wireless Domain Services (WDS) to take the

that there is no perceptible delay in voice or other time-sensitive applications.

network, all the wireless clients and the wireless APs use the same shared key.
With an ad hoc network, all the wireless clients of the ad hoc wireless network
use the same shared key.
