WPA – PSK (Pre-shared Key) is used in a Pre Shared Key mode that does not require
an authentication server. Acce ss to the Internet and the rest of the wireless network
services is allowed only if the pre-shared key of the computer matches that of the
Access Point. This approach offers the simplicity of the WEP key, but uses stronger
TKIP encryption. 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.
