AES-CCMP is recommended.
12. Enable 802.1x: Selected.
13. Authentication Type: Select one of the following:
EAP-SIM, LEAP, TLS, TTLS, PEAP, EAP-FAST.
Set up a Client with EAP-SIM Network Authentication
EAP-SIM uses a dynamic session-based WEP key, which is derived from the client adapter and RADIUS server,
to encrypt data. EAP-SIM requires you to enter a user verification code, or Personal Identification Number
(PIN), for communication with the Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card. A SIM card is a special smart card
that is used by Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) based digital cellular networks. To add a
profile with EAP-SIM authentication:
1. On the Profile page, click Add to open the Create Wireless Profile General Settings.
2. Profile Name: Enter a profile name.
3. Wireless Network Name (SSID): Enter the network identifier.
4. Operating Mode: Click Network (Infrastructure).
5. Click Next to access the Security Settings.
6. Select Enterprise Security.
7. Network Authentication: Select Open (Recommended).
8. Data Encryption: Select WEP.
9. Click Enable 802.1x.
10. Authentication type: Select EAP-SIM.
EAP-SIM authentication can be used with:
● Network Authentication types: Open, Shared, WPA-Enterprise and WPA2-Enterprise
● Data Encryption types: None, WEP, TKIP, AES-CCMP and CKIP
EAP-SIM User (optional)
1. Specify user name (identity): Click to specify the user name.
❍ User Name: Enter the user name assigned to the SIM card.
2. Click OK.
Set up a Client with TLS Network Authentication
These settings define the protocol and the credentials used to authenticate a user. Transport Layer Security
(TLS) authentication is a two-way authentication method that exclusively uses digital certificates to verify the
identity of a client and a server.
To add a profile with TLS authentication:
1. Click Profiles on the Intel PROSet/Wireless main window.
