Which EAP protocol requires a certificate only on the server side?
| A. |
EAP-PEAP | |
| B. |
EAP-FAST | |
| C. |
EAP-TLS | |
| D. |
EAP-SSL |
PEAP is not an encryption protocol; as with other EAP types it only authenticates a client into a network.
PEAP uses only server-side public key certificates to authenticate clients by creating an encrypted SSL/TLS tunnel between the client and the authentication server, which protects the ensuing exchange of authentication information from casual inspection.
