3.2.3.8 802.1x PEAP (EAP-GTC)
PEAP (EAP-GTC) was standardized along with EAP in RFC 2284. EAP-GTC
allows the exchange of clear text authentication credentials across the network.
The GTC method does provide a way to move a simple username and password
from client to server using an EAP method, so it can be used to provide an
authentication method. Naturally, if EAP-GTC is used to transport reusable
passwords, it must be used inside a tunnel for protection and server
authentication. EAP-GTC can be used with both TTLS and PEAP.
Select the 802.1x radio button, and then select PEAP (EAP-GTC) from the drop-
down list.
Click on the Configure button to configure the PEAP (EAP-GTC) settings.
