Anyone developing wireless LAN (WLAN) systems knows the security problem created by the wired equivalency protocol (WEP). The bigger issue designers must wrestle with is how to solve the problems ...

If I implement 802.1X on my Ethernet switch ports, do I still have to worry about rogue access points? Rogue access points are like cockroaches; they’re everywhere, they’re impossible to get rid of, ...

IEEE 802.1X is a standard that defines how to provide authentication for devices that connect with other devices on local area networks (LANs). It provides a mechanism by which network switches and ...

Wireless LANs offer two things central to the adoption of communications technologies: reach and economy. Scalable end-user reach is gained without stringing wires, and the users themselves often feel ...

Is there such a beast? I've got a heterogenious environment (Linux, Windows, Solaris, VMware) with laptops, workstations and servers, and it's time to implement 802.1x. I'll probably start with the ...

When WEP's flaws became apparent, the wireless industry started developing new protocols to address the published weak points. These new protocols grew up around the IEEE 802.1x framework, which is a ...

In the security and wireless networking world, 802.1x is a big deal. This is the Layer 2 protocol that enables device authentication. The protocol helps keep war drivers off wireless networks and is ...

Ok, I have read a few articles as well as the microsoft docs on using 802.1x with wireless clients. So far I have these steps.<BR><BR>1) install certificate services<BR>2) install IAS<BR><BR>I would ...
