Changing encryption to authentication
Line 1:
'''The Lightweight Extensible Authentication Protocol (LEAP''') is a proprietary wireless [[encryption]]LAN techniqueauthentication method developed by [[Cisco Systems]]. 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 allows for clients to reauthenticate frequently; upon each successful authentication, the clients acquire a new WEP key (with the hope that the WEP keys live long enough not to be cracked).
