Authentication Type: The EAP authentication protocols this adapter has supported are
included as follows. This setting has to be consistent with the wireless APs or Routers that the
adapter intends to connect.
PEAP: Protect Extensible Authentication Protocol. PEAP transport securely authentication
data by using tunneling between PEAP clients and an authentication server. PEAP can
authenticate wireless LAN clients using only server-side certificates, thus simplifying the
implementation and administration of a secure wireless LAN.
LS/Smart Card: Transport Layer Security. Provides for certificate-based and mutual
authentication of the client and the network. It relies on client-side and server-side
certificates to perform authentication and can be used to dynamically generate user-based
and session-based WEP keys to secure subsequent communications between the WLAN
client and the access point.
TTLS: Tunneled Transport Layer Security. This security method provides for
certificate-based, mutual authentication of the client and network through an encrypted
channel. Unlike EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS requires only server-side certificates
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.
