Table 108   The WiMAX Profile Screen

User Name

This is the username for your Internet access account. 

Password

This is the password for your Internet access account. The 
password displays as a row of asterisks for security purposes.

Anonymous Identity

This is the anonymous identity provided by your Internet Service 
Provider. Anonymous identity (also known as outer identity) is 
used with EAP-TTLS encryption.

PKM

This field displays the Privacy Key Management version number. 
PKM provides security between the WiMAX Modem and the base 
station. See the WiMAX security appendix for more information.

Authentication

This field displays the user authentication method. Authentication 
is the process of confirming the identity of a user (by means of a 
username and password, for example).

EAP-TTLS allows an MS/SS and a base station to establish a 
secure link (or ‘tunnel’) with an AAA (Authentication, Authorization 
and Accounting) server in order to exchange authentication 
information. See the WiMAX security appendix for more details.
