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
