PEAP (Protected Extensible Authentication Protocol) is a protocol developed jointly by Microsoft, RSA 
Security, and Cisco Systems for transmitting authentication data, including passwords over a 802.11 
wireless network. PEAP authenticates wireless LAN clients using only server-side digital certificates by 
creating an SSL/TLS tunnel between the client and the authentication server. The tunnel then protects the 
subsequent user authentication exchange. 

Select PEAP from the drop-down list, and then click on the Configure button. You will then see the 
following window.

Provide the following information for user authentication:

• Server Properties: select a server name from the drop-down list.
• User Name: enter the user name.
• Password: enter the password.
• Confirm Password: re-type the password for confirmation purposes.
Click on the OK button, or click on the Advanced Configuration button to specify a server or login name. 

After clicking on the Advanced Configuration button, you will see the following window.

Provide the following optional information:

• Specific Server or Domain — (Optional) Place a check in this box and enter the server or domain 

name.
