Chapter 6 Wireless LAN
• The wireless station replies with identity information, including username and password.
• The RADIUS server checks the user information against its user profile database and
determines whether or not to authenticate the wireless station.
6.6 Dynamic WEP Key Exchange
The AP maps a unique key that is generated with the RADIUS server. This key expires when
the wireless connection times out, disconnects or reauthentication times out. A new WEP key
is generated each time reauthentication is performed.
If this feature is enabled, it is not necessary to configure a default encryption key in the
Wireless
screen. You may still configure and store keys here, but they will not be used while
Dynamic WEP is enabled.
To use Dynamic WEP, enable and configure Dynamic WEP Key Exchange in the
Wireless
screen (see
) and configure RADIUS server settings in the
AUTH
SERVER RADIUS
screen
(see
). Ensure that the wireless station's
EAP type is configured to one of the following:
• EAP-TLS
• EAP-TTLS
• PEAP
Note:
EAP-MD5 cannot be used with Dynamic WEP Key Exchange.
6.7 Introduction to WPA
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is a subset of the IEEE 802.11i security specification draft.
Key differences between WPA and WEP are user authentication and improved data
encryption.
6.7.1 User Authentication
WPA applies IEEE 802.1x and Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) to authenticate
wireless clients using an external RADIUS database. You can't use the ZyWALL's Local User
Database for WPA authentication purposes since the Local User Database uses EAP-MD5
which cannot be used to generate keys. See later in this chapter and the appendices for more
information on IEEE 802.1x, RADIUS and EAP.
Therefore, if you don't have an external RADIUS server you should use WPA-PSK (WPA -
Pre-Shared Key) that only requires a single (identical) password entered into each access
point, wireless gateway and wireless client. As long as the passwords match, a client will be
granted access to a WLAN.
