Cisco Cisco Aironet 1200 Access Point Notas de publicación

This section applies to wireless networks set up to use LEAP. If you do not use LEAP on your wireless 
network, you can skip this section.

Wireless client devices use Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) to log onto a network and generate 
a dynamic, client-specific WEP key for the current logon session. If your wireless network uses WEP 
without EAP, client devices use the static WEP keys entered in the Aironet Client Utilities. 

If you use Network-EAP authentication on your wireless network, your client devices and access points 
must use the same 802.1x protocol draft. For example, if the radio firmware on the client devices that 
will associate with an access point is version 4.16, the access point should be configured to use Draft 8 
of the 802.1x protocol. 

 lists firmware versions for Cisco Aironet products and the draft with 

which they comply.

Use the Authenticator Configuration page to select the draft of the 802.1x protocol the access point 
should use. Follow these steps to set the draft for your access point:

Browse to the Authenticator Configuration page in the access point management system:

On the Summary Status page, click Setup.

On the Setup page, click Security.
