3.4.4 LEAP Authentication

LEAP (Lightweight Extensible Authentication Protocol) also known as Cisco-

Wireless EAP provides username/password-based authentication between a

wireless client and a RADIUS server. LEAP is one of several protocols used with

the IEEE 802.1X standard for LAN port access control. LEAP also delivers a

session key to the authenticated station, so that future frames can be encrypted

with a key that is different than keys used by others sessions. Dynamic key

delivery eliminates one big vulnerability; static encryption keys that are shared by

all stations in the WLAN. EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) is an

extension to the PPP protocol that enables a variety of authentication protocols

to be used. It passes through the exchange of authentication messages, allowing

the authentication software stored in a server to interact with its counterpart in the

client
