Line 1:
The '''Lightweight Extensible Authentication Protocol''' (LEAP) is a proprietary wireless LAN authentication method developed by [[Cisco Systems]]. Important features of LEAP are dynamic [[Wired Equivalent Privacy|WEP]] keys and [[mutual authentication]] (between a wireless client and a [[RADIUS]] server). LEAP allows for clients to reauthenticate frequently; upon each successful authentication, the clients acquire a new WEP key (with the hope that the WEP keys don't live long enough to be cracked).
Some 3rd party vendors also support LEAP through the Cisco Compatible Extensions Program.<ref>{{citeweb|title=Cisco Compatible Extensions Program|url=http://www.cisco.com/web/partners/pr46/pr147/partners_pgm_concept_home.html|publisher=cisco.com|accessdate=2008-02-22}}</ref>
