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, as listed here: http://www.cisco.com/web/partners/pr46/pr147/partners_pgm_concept_home.html
