'''LEAP''' is a [[Cisco]]-proprietary wireless [[encryption]] technique. LEAP stands for Lightweight Extensible Authentication Protocol. Important features of LEAP are dynamic [[WEP]] keys and mutual [[authentication]] (between a wireless client and a [[RADIUS]] server). LEAP requires the clients to reauthenticate frequently; upon each successfully authentication, the clients acquire a new WEP key (with the hope that the WEP keys do not live long enough to be cracked).
