What protocol is EAP?

The Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) is a protocol for wireless networks that expands the authentication methods used by the Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP), a protocol often used when connecting a computer to the internet.

What are the three versions of EAP?

The standard also describes the conditions under which the AAA key management requirements described in RFC 4962 can be satisfied.

  • Lightweight Extensible Authentication Protocol (LEAP)
  • EAP Transport Layer Security (EAP-TLS)
  • EAP-MD5.
  • EAP Protected One-Time Password (EAP-POTP)
  • EAP Pre-Shared Key (EAP-PSK)

What is EAP-TTLS protocol?

EAP-TTLS is a specific version of the EAP(Extensible Authentication Protocol) providing a framework to support authentication across a number of communication systems.

What are the different EAP methods?

Note that EAP authentication methods that are used within tunneled EAP methods are commonly known as inner methods or EAP types.

  • Protected EAP (PEAP)
  • EAP-Tunneled Transport Layer Security (TTLS)
  • EAP-Subscriber Identity Module (SIM), EAP-Authentication and Key Agreement (AKA), and EAP-AKA Prime (AKA’)

What is the difference between EAP-TLS and EAP-TTLS?

On EAP-TLS you are right, both sides require a certificate. With a client-side certificate, a compromised password is not enough to break into EAP-TLS enabled systems because the intruder still needs to have the client-side certificate. On EAP-TTLS, you are right again.

What is the difference between PEAP and EAP-TTLS?

PEAP is a SSL wrapper around EAP carrying EAP. TTLS is a SSL wrapper around diameter TLVs carrying RADIUS authentication attributes.

What are three requirements of EAP-TLS?

EAP-TLS authentication involves 3 parties, the supplicant (user’s device), the authenticator (switch or controller), and the authentication server (RADIUS server).
