Property Name Description
EAP Method
It is available for 802.1X, WPA-Enterprise and
WPA2-Enterprise authentication.
EAP-LEAP LEAP stands for Lightweight Extensible
Authentication Protocol. It changes the WEP key for each
session, preventing attackers retrieving data by cracking the
key.
EAP-TLS TLS stands for Transport Layer Security.
EAP-TLS requires both a client and a server to exchange
digital certificates to authenticate each other. It uses Public
Key Infrastructure (PKI) to protect communication.
A server and a client need to obtain certificates from a
certification authority (CA), and use these certificates to
validate each other’s identity.
EAP-TTLS TTLS stands for Tunneled Transport Layer
Security. It has two stages. First, a server sends its
certificate to a client after it received an authentication
request. This certificate is used to create an encrypted
tunnel (TLS tunnel) between the server and the client.
Second, both sides exchange attribute-value pairs (AVP)
through this tunnel.
PEAP Short for Protected Extensible Authentication
Protocol. Similar to EAP-TTLS, it creates an encrypted
tunnel between a server and a client in the first stage. After
that, it starts the second EAP exchange through this tunnel.
EAP-FAST FAST stands for Flexible Authentication via
Secure Tunneling. Similar to PEAP, it has two stages. First, it
uses a Protected Access Credentials (PACs) to create an
encrypted tunnel. Second, it authenticates the client to the
server within the tunnel.

alphanumeric characters.
