OL-6552-01
New and Changed Information
Supporting Documentation
Version OL-1375-05 of the Cisco Aironet 350 Series Wireless LAN Client Adapters Installation and 
Configuration Guide for Windows
 CE pertains specifically to client utility and driver release 2.60. If you 
are using, installing, or upgrading to an older release of client adapter software, refer to a previous 
version of this manual for information and instructions.
New and Changed Information
Support for Additional Platforms
Client utility and driver release 2.60 supports two new Windows CE .NET platforms: ARMv4I and 
MIPSII.
WPA Support
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is a standards-based, interoperable security certification that greatly 
increases the level of data protection and access control for existing and future wireless LAN systems. 
It is derived from and is compatible with the IEEE 802.11i standard. WPA leverages Temporal Key 
Integrity Protocol (TKIP) and Michael message integrity check (MIC) for data protection and 802.1X 
for authenticated key management. WPA is supported by the Cisco Wireless Security Suite.
Using WPA key management, clients and the authentication server authenticate to each other using an 
EAP authentication method, and the client and server generate a pairwise master key (PMK). The server 
generates the PMK dynamically and passes it to the access point.
If you configure your client adapter through ACU, only 350 series cards that are installed in Windows 
CE .NET 4.2 devices and running LEAP or EAP-FAST authentication can be used with WPA. Two 
Network Security Type options, LEAP(WPA) and EAP-FAST(WPA), have been added to the Properties 
window in ACU. Refer to the Cisco Aironet 350 Series Wireless LAN Client Adapters Installation and 
Configuration Guide for Windows CE
 (part number OL-1375-05) for instructions on enabling WPA with 
LEAP or EAP-FAST.
If you configure your client adapter through Windows CE .NET (rather than through ACU) and want to 
enable WPA, you must use a Windows CE .NET 4.2 device, and the device manufacturer must have 
included the WPA supplicant in its operating system build.
Note
WPA must also be enabled on the access point. Access points must use Cisco IOS Release 12.2(11)JA 
or later to enable WPA. Refer to the documentation for your access point for instructions on enabling 
this feature.
