FIG. 85 Wireless Security: Enterprise Mode - EAP-PEAP
PEAP (Protected Extensible Authentication Protocol) was developed as a way to securely transmit authentication
information, such as passwords, over a wireless network environment. PEAP uses only server-side public key certificates
and therefore does not need a client (panel) certificate which makes the configuration and setup easier.
There are two main versions of the PEAP protocol supported by panel's Devicecape Wireless Client:


PEAP uses inner authentication mechanisms supported by the Devicescape Wireless Client, the most common of which
are:

EAP-PEAP security is designed for wireless environments where it is necessary to transmit data securely over a wireless
network.

SSID (Service Set Identifier):
Identity:
Password:

PEAPv0
PEAPv1
MSCHAPv2 with PEAPv0
GTC with PEAPv1
Opens an on-screen keyboard to enter the SSID name used on the target AP.
The SSID is a unique name used by the AP, and is assigned to all panels on
that network. An SSID is required by the AP before the panel is permitted to
join the network.
• The SSID is case sensitive and must not exceed 32 characters.
• Make sure this setting is the same for all points in the wireless network.
• With EAP security, the SSID of the AP must be entered. If it is left blank,
the panel will try to connect to the first access point detected that supports
EAP. However, a successful connection is not guaranteed because the
detected AP may be connected to a RADIUS server, which may not
support this EAP type and/or have the proper user identities configured.
Opens an on-screen keyboard to enter an EAP Identity string (used by the
panel to identify itself to an Authentication (RADIUS) Server).
Note: This information is similar to a username used to login to a secured
server or workstation. This works in tandem with the Password string, which
is similar to the password entered to gain access to a secured workstation.
Typically, this is in the form of a username such as jdoe@amx.com.
Opens an on-screen keyboard to enter the network password string specified
for the user entered within the Identity field (used by the panel to identify itself
to an Authentication (RADIUS) Server)
Note: This information is similar to the password entered to gain access to a
secured workstation.
