WPA

WPA stands for Wi-Fi Protected Access - authorizes and

 

identifies users based on a secret key that changes automatically

 

at a pre-defined interval. This is called TKIP (Temporal Key

 

Integrity Protocol) to change the temporal key every 10,000

 

packets (= unit of data.) Keys can either be pre-shared or

 

established by a RADIUS Server.

RADIUS

RADIUS is part of 802.11i security; this is a wireless standard

 

which is only concerned with wireless security standards.

 

Authentication is based around a secure server with a challenge-

 

and-response method of interaction which verifies the identity

 

of the client wishing to connect to the network. If you wish to

 

connect to a RADIUS server ask the Network Administrator for

 

details. RADIUS servers are not usually used as part of home

 

networks.
