Re: WPA2 security settings:

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



I don't have experience on setting up the radius server build in the Cisco
AP.....

The usual picture is the authentication server being is separate machine;
normally a WindowsServer2003 or a linux machine running radius software.

The authentication server has defined the valid user/passwords if you are
using PEAP, and issues certificates that you have to install in your WinCE
device if you are using TLS.

In the AP you just configure your server IP and Secret.

If you don't have much experience I recomend that you set all this using
first a windows host with a wifi card... under WinCE everything is just a
little bit more difficult.

Here you have a tutorial on how 'How to Set Up a Wireless Network with a
Security Infrastructure' using a WindowsServer2003 (I followed it and worked
fine).

Hello Paul,
Thank you for your reply.
I am using Connect Blue WLAN card and driver. It is supporting WPA2
security.But you are correct, it is not supporting LEAP authentication.

Could you please advice me, how can i get the authentication from RADIUS
server?
Is there any firmware available?

Thanks & Regards
Manic

The wireless radio driver on the Windows CE end determines whether you
can
actually support WPA2 or any of the other authentication or encryption
protocols. If you're using radio card X, for example, it might support
PEAP
and EAP-TLS, but, unless the card vendor has a license from Cisco, it
won't
support LEAP, because that's proprietary to Cisco. Summit Data
Communications cards support LEAP, for example. It also happens to
support
WPA2. Without knowing what radio you're using, I think we've gone about
as
far as we can.

At a guess, I'd say that your 1200 AP will only support being a LEAP
authentication server and, since your card and its driver on the CE end
don't support leap, you'll never be authenticated, so no connection.

Hello Josh Chang,

Thank you for your reply.

I am using Cisco Aironet 1240AG series access point. Here I have set
the
user name and password only. I did not aware of Domain Name
configuration
in
Access Point.

What does it meant?

As per the Cisco instruction manual, i have configued the access point
for
LEAP authentication mode with WPA2 encription. But in our desktop
(WinCE
5.0)
i could not able to select LEAP authentication with WPA2 security. It
is
supporting PEAP and TLS types only.

Have you any inputs for this...

Thanks

Manic

Hi Manic,

The username and domain name are stored in the firmware of your
Access
Point(AP), check it out in its instrution manual......

Hello all,
I am using WinCE5.0. I have updated the
WinCEPB50-061231-Product-Update-Rollup-Armv4I patch from microsoft
for
to
update the WPA2 security feature. I have to communicate to remote
wireless
client through Access Point with WPA2 security. I am using Cisco
Aironet
1240AG series access point. I have configured the access point with
WPA2
security and configured as local radius server for authentication.

Whenever i am trying to connect to Access point, WinCe asking
username
and
domain name. I do't know about it. Where i have to configure the
Username and
Domain name in WinCE?

Advise me!

Manic
