Certificates
18.1 Overview
This chapter describes how your NWA can use certificates as a means of
authenticating wireless clients. It gives background information about public-key
certificates and explains how to use them.
A certificate contains the certificate owner’s identity and public key. Certificates
provide a way to exchange public keys for use in authentication.
