Preliminary Draft - Nortel Networks Confidential 47 Chapter 5 Configuring network security Overview This chapter explains how to use the Nortel Networks WLAN - Mobile Adapter 2202 Utility to configure network security. While using the Mobile Adapter 2202, encrypting data can protect it as it is transmitted through the wireless network.
Preliminary Draft - Nortel Networks Confidential 48 Chapter 5 Configuring network security This option enables WPA passphrase security (also known as WPA-Pre Shared Key (PSK)). • 802.1x security This option enables 802.1x security. This option requires network administration support. This option includes the EAP (with dynamic WEP keys) security protocols: EAP and PEAP. 802.1x is the standard for wireless LAN security defined by IEEE as 802.1x for 802.11, or simply 802.1x.
Preliminary Draft - Nortel Networks Confidential Chapter 5 Configuring network security 49 3 After successful authentication, the client and RADIUS server derive a dynamic WEP key that is unique to the client. 4 The RADIUS server transmits the key to the AP using a secure channel on the wired LAN. 5 For the length of the session, the AP and the client use this key to encrypt or decrypt all unicast and broadcast packets.
Preliminary Draft - Nortel Networks Confidential 50 Chapter 5 Configuring network security 1 Once the EAP-TLS certificates are downloaded to the adapter card, select EAP-TLS from the WPA EAP Type or 802.1x EAP Type drop-down menu (Figure 34). Figure 34 EAP-TLS Security Option 2 Select the appropriate certificate authority from the list. The server/domain name and the login name are filled in automatically from the certificate information. Click on OK.
Preliminary Draft - Nortel Networks Confidential Chapter 5 Configuring network security 51 To enable EAP-TTLS security: 1 Once the EAP-TTLS certificates are downloaded to the adapter card, select EAP-TTLS from the WPA EAP Type or 802.1x EAP Type drop-down list (Figure 35). Figure 35 EAP-TTLS Security Option 2 Click on the Configure button. The Define EAP-TTLS Configuration window appears (Figure 36).

Otherwise, enter an EAP user name in the User Name field to use a different user name and password and start the EAP authentication process.
Preliminary Draft - Nortel Networks Confidential Chapter 5 Configuring network security 53 PEAP security Two types of PEAP security are provided as follows: • PEAP (EAP-GTC) authentication is designed to support one-time password (OTP), the Windows NT or Windows 2000 domain, and L DAP users databases over a wireless LAN. It is based on EAP-TLS authentication but uses a password instead of a client certificate for authentication.
Preliminary Draft - Nortel Networks Confidential 54 Chapter 5 Configuring network security • • To enable EAP-TLS security, go to “Enabling PEAP (EAP-GTC) security.” To enable EAP-TTLS security, go to “Enabling PEAP (EAP-MSCHAP V2) security.” Enabling PEAP (EAP-GTC) security To use PEAP (EAP-GTC) security, the server first must have PEAP certificates and the server properties must be set already. See your network administrator.
