The 802.1x standard
Frequency band divisions – Military– Broadcasters– Amateur radio operators
Broadcast signal is a security issue IEEE 802.1x
– Port-based authentication framework for access to Ethernet networks
– Designed for wired Ethernet networks– Applies to 802.11 WLANs

802.1x, continued
Requires three roles in authentication process– Device requesting access– Authenticator– Authentication server
Allows multiple authentication algorithms
Is an open standard

The 802.11 standard
Operates in 2.4–2.5 GHz band Used for wireless networks OSI Data Link layer Two ways to configure a network
– Ad hoc – Infrastructure
Places specifications on Physical and MAC layers

Access point
Transparent bridge between wireless clients and wired network
Includes– At least one interface to connect to wired
network– Transmitting equipment to connect with
wireless clients– IEEE 802.1D bridging software

Major wireless protocols
Standard Speeds Frequency Indoor distance
Outdoor distance
Interference
802.11b <= 11 Mbps
2.4 GHz 45 m 90 m Yes
802.11a <= 54 Mbps
5 GHz 15 m 30 m No; Not compatible with 802.11b
802.11g 20+ Mbps
Advertised 54 Mbps
2.4 GHz 45 m 90 m Yes; Compatible with 802.11b
802.11n <= 600 Mbps
2.4 or 5 GHz
70 m 250 m No; Compatible with 802.11g, b, a
802.16 <= 11 Mbps

Device compatibility
802.11a not compatible with 802.11b– Some devices equipped to support either
802.11a or 802.11b
802.11n backward-compatible with 802.11b and 802.11g– Many modern access points support
multiple standards

Channels
802.11g and b use 2.4–2.5 GHz with 11 channels 5 MHz apart
Most routers default to channel 6 Closely located wireless networks
using the same or adjacent channels can interfere with one another
Can change the default channel on the wireless AP to decrease interference– Apply to both AP and its clients

Channel bonding
Allows devices to use two adjacent channels at once
Doubles bandwidth Primary or control channel Secondary or extension channel Works with both 2.4 and 5 GHz
frequencies Works best in 5 GHz band with
802.11n standard

MIMO
Multiple-input and multiple-output Pronounced my-moh or me-moh Uses multiple antennas at both
transmitter and receiver Increases data throughput and
wireless link range Available in 802.11n and 802.11g Not suitable for long-range point-to-
point links using external antenna
