Fast secure roaming is supported by Cisco and Cisco Compatible client devices in conjunction with Cisco Aironet, Cisco IOS Software-based access
points. With fast secure roaming, authenticated client devices can roam securely from one access point to another, within or across subnets, without
any perceptible delay during reassociation. Fast secure roaming supports latency-sensitive applications such as wireless voice over IP (VoIP),
enterprise resource planning (ERP), or Citrix-based solutions (Figure 2).

ENTERPRISE-CLASS WIRELESS LAN SECURITY
Wireless LAN security is a primary concern. Cisco Aironet products secure the enterprise network with a scalable and manageable system featuring
the award-winning Cisco Wireless Security Suite. Based on the 802.1X standard for port-based network access, the Cisco Wireless Security Suite
takes advantage of the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) framework for user-based authentication (Figure 3). This solution supports Wi-Fi
Protected Access (WPA), the Wi-Fi Alliance certification for interoperable, standards-based wireless LAN security. Cisco Aironet WPA Migration
Mode, an access point setting that enables both WPA and non-WPA clients to associate to an access point using the same SSID, is supported by the
Cisco Aironet 350 Series Client Adapter.
The Cisco Wireless Security Suite interoperates with a range of client devices. It supports all 802.1X authentication types, including Cisco LEAP,
Extensible Authentication Protocol-Flexible Authentication via Secure Tunneling (EAP-FAST), EAP-Transport Layer Security (EAP-TLS),
Protected Extensible Authentication Protocol-Generic Token Card (PEAP-GTC), Protected Extensible Authentication Protocol-Microsoft
Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol Version 2 (PEAP-MSCHAP V2), EAP-Tunneled TLS (EAP-TTLS) and EAP-Subscriber Identity
