Abstract

In this paper, we focus on a feasible security solution to WLAN. We first analyzed EAP-TLS and the IPSec support mechanism in Linux. Secondly, we implemented EAP-TLS authentication and VPN gateways. This paper illustrates the configuration of STA, AP and RADIUS server and the application of ipsec-tool. It also summarizes the security considerations of the solution associating EAP-TLS with IPSec VPN.
