Available Advanced Network Authentication Protocols
Several different advanced security protocols are available with your DW WLAN Card:
• 802.1X
• WPA-Enterprise
• WPA2-Enterprise
• CCKM
802.1X Security
IEEE 802.1X-2001 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
heavy technical support to set up and maintain and is intended for use by large corporations.
Authentication methods for 802.1X security with WEP encryption are described in
Table 1. Authentication Methods for IEEE
802.1X Security with Either WEP or CKIP Encryption.
