EAP Method: The EAP authentication protocols supported by this
adapter require that settings be consistent with the wireless access
points or routers that the adapter is intended to connect.
• PEAP & TTLS: These protocols are similar and easier to use than
TLS (below) in that they specify a stand-alone authentication protocol
to be used within an encrypted tunnel. TTLS supports any protocol
within its tunnel, including CHAP, MS-CHAP, MS-CHAPv2, PAP and
EAP-MD5. PEAP specifies that an EAP-compliant authentication
protocol be used; this adapter supports EAP-MSCHAP v2, EAP-TLS/
Smart Card and Generic Token Card. The client certificate is optional.
• TLS/Smart Card: This is the most secure of the EAP protocols, but
isn’t easy to use: It requires that digital certificates be exchanged in
