Some 3rd party vendors also support LEAP through the Cisco Compatible Extensions Program, as listed here: http://www.cisco.com/web/partners/pr46/pr147/partners_pgm_concept_home.html
== Security Considerations ==
LEAP uses a modified version of [[MS-CHAP]], an [[authentication]] protocol in which user credentials are not strongly protected. Stronger authentication protocols employ a [[salt (cryptography)]] to strengthen the credentials against eavesdropping during the authentication process. Cisco responded to the weaknesses of LEAP by suggesting that network administrators should force users to have stronger, more complicated [[passwords]] to ensure security. Automated tools like [http://asleap.sourceforge.net/ ASLEAP] demonstronstrate the simplicity of getting unauthorized access in networks protected by LEAP implementations.
