Integrated security architecture for WLAN
Marco Carli, Alessia Rosetti, Alessandro Neri · 2003
A robust, integrated security architecture for wireless local area network (WLAN) is presented. WLANs and wireless applications are increasing in many network environments because they are potentially useful and powerful. However, due to their broadcast nature, the security of these systems is still far from the optimum. To achieve security the IEEE protocol 802.11x is being developed, but it suffers of several weaknesses. To overcome these problems, a solution based on the integration of IEEE 802.11x and a server RADIUS is proposed.
