3.2.2.2.4.3802.1X – LEAP

EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) is an extension to the PPP protocol that enables a variety of authentication protocols to be used. It passes through the exchange of authentication messages, allowing the authentication software stored in a server to interact with its counterpart in the client.

LEAP (Lightweight Extensible Authentication Protocol) also known as Cisco- Wireless EAP provides username/password-based authentication between a wireless client and a RADIUS server. LEAP is one of several protocols used with the IEEE 802.1X standard for LAN port access control. LEAP also delivers a session key to the authenticated station, so that future frames can be encrypted with a key that is different than keys used by others sessions. Dynamic key delivery eliminates one big vulnerability; static encryption keys that are shared by all stations in the WLAN.
