|
|
|
| If the network is using DHCP then an IP | |

| address will be assigned to the WLAN interface | |
|
|
|
|
| and IP connectivity is possible over the WLAN | |

|
|
| If the network is using static IP addresses it will | |

18.4Configuring for PEAP Security
This security type is a very popular type for enterprise networks. Actual use of the security protocol requires the network is using a RADIUS server for device authentication, depending upon the security policies of the network this protocol supports authentication with and without a CA certificate.
The Airborne device supports PEAPv0 using both WPA (TKIP) and WPA2 (AES- CCMP) encryption. The device will automatically use the most appropriate encryption type to obtain authentication to the WLAN.
