WPA-TKIP Deployment Considerations
Before defining a WPA-TKIP supported configuration on a WLAN, refer to the following deployment guidelines to ensure
the configuration is optimally effective:
• Though TKIP offers better security than WEP, it can be vulnerable to certain attacks.
• When both TKIP and CCMP are both enabled a mix of clients are allowed to associate with the WLAN. Some use TKIP,
others use CCMP. Since broadcast traffic needs to be understood by all clients, the broadcast encryption type in this
scenario is TKIP.
