According to http://www.computerworld.com/mobiletopics/mobile/story/0,10801,79995,00.html "The tunneled methods of EAP-TTLS and EAP-PEAP actually provide mutual authentication to other methods that utilize the familiar user ID/password methods, i.e. EAP-MD5, EAP-MSCHAP V2, in order to authenticate the client to the server. This method of authentication occurs through a secure TLS encryption tunnel that borrows techniques from the time-tested secure Web connections (HTTPS) used in online credit card transactions. In the case of EAP-TTLS, legacy authentication methods can be employed through the tunnel, such as PAP, CHAP, MS CHAP and MS CHAP V2." Josh |
