Abstract :
As security is becoming a significant obstacle to wider deployment of wireless LANs, IEEE 802.1x and EAPoW has been put forward to enhance authentication in WLAN. At present, some existing client solution such as Xsupplicant or WIRE1x has only applies to one platform, Linux or Windows, and is ill-considered of EAPoW. This paper discusses an integrated multi- platform EAPOW-based WLAN AAA Solution - IMEWAS, its architecture and module design and implementation. The integrated flexible and secure solution has been proved feasible.
