3.2.1.3802.1x Setting-Certification

Parameter	Description
Authentication Type	The EAP authentication protocols this adaptor has supported are
	included as follows. This setting has to be consistent with the
	wireless APs or Routers that the adaptor intends to connect.
	PEAP &TTLS – PEAP and TTLS are similar and easier than TLS
	in that they specify a stand-alone authentication protocol be used
	within an encrypted tunnel. TTLS supports any protocol within its
	tunnel, including CHAP, MS-CHAP, MS-CHAPv2, PAP and
	EAP-MD5. PEAP specifies that an EAP-compliant authentication
	protocol must be used; this adaptor supports EAP-MSCHAP v2,
	EAP-TLS/Smart Card and Generic Token Card. The client
	certificate is optional required for the authentication.
	TLS/Smart Card –TLS is the most secure of the EAP protocols
	but not easy to use. It requires that digital certificates be
	exchanged in the authentication phase. The server presents a
	certificate to the client. After validating the server’s certificate, the
	client presents a client certificate to the server for validation.
	MD5-Challenge – MD5-Challenge is the easiest EAP Type. It
	requires the wireless station to enter a set of user name and
	password as the identity to RADIUS Server.
Session Resumption	There are “Disabled”, “Reauthentication”, “Roaming”, “SameSsid”
	and “Always” selections for you to choose whether to recovery the
	session in different status.
Identity	Enter the name as the identity for the server.
Password	Enter the password as the identity for the server.
Use Client Certificate	A client certificate is required for TLS, and is optional for TTLS and
	PEAP. This forces a client certificate to be selected from the
	appropriate Windows Certificate Store and made available to the
	RADIUS server for certification.
