WAN link remote site survivability allows the access point to act as a local RADIUS server to IEEE 802.1X

authenticate wireless clients when the authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) server is not available.

This provides remote site survivability and backup authentication services during a WAN link or server failure

allowing users in remote site deployments with nonredundant WAN links access to local resources such as file servers

or printers (Figure 4).

WAN Link Remote Site Survivability

Wireless LAN security is a primary concern. The Cisco Aironet 1100 Series secures 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 5). This solution also supports

Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA), the new Wi-Fi Alliance specification for interoperable, standards-based wireless

LAN security.

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-Transport Layer Security (EAP-TLS) and types that

operate over EAP-TLS, such as Protected Extensible Authentication Protocol (PEAP), EAP-Tunneled TLS

(EAP-TTLS) and EAP-Subscriber Identity Module (EAP-SIM). A wide selection of RADIUS servers, such as the Cisco

Secure Access Control Server (ACS), can be used for enterprise-class centralized user management that includes:

• Strong, mutual authentication to ensure that only legitimate clients associate with legitimate and authorized

network RADIUS servers via authorized access points

• Dynamic per-user, per-session encryption keys that automatically change on a configurable basis to protect the

privacy of transmitted data
