PEAP, EAP?

Tom · Joined: 15 Aug 2007 Posts: 57

I don't see much info on using PEAP either implicitly through configurating a
device appropriately, or programatically in whatever manner possible. I also
don't don't see any PEAP options in setting up LAN connections in the WM5 PPC
emulator.

Is PEAP only available when wi-fi is being used? Or when 802.1X is being
used? Is there a way to test PEAP within the emulator? I don't see anything
in the emulator settings for using PEAP or 802.1X.

Any hints welcome... thanks!

(Please excuse the x-post to microsoft.public.windowsce.embedded but I did
get one hit on PEAP there so I figure plain-Jane CE folks may have used PEAP
programmatically or whatnot. Thanks.)

Regards,
Tom

As far as I can think, yes, PEAP is only available, at the moment, for WiFi.
No, there's no way to test PEAP from the emulator and I don't follow why
that would make sense anyway. What is it that you're trying to test?

Hi Paul,

>

I was trying to test PEAP capabilities WM 5.

I tried looking for any hard-wired 802.1X settings, but couldn't find any.
Additionally, I tried looking at connection setup, say, for VPN, but there's
no "Advanced/PEAP" setup area (in the WM5PPC emulator).

I see the EAP*.DLLs but my guess is that you only get PEAP configuration
options when either installing an 802.11 device or some other 3rd-party VPN
software that uses CE EAP.

Any further comment/clarification is welcome. Thanks.

Regards,
Tom

I don't think that the OS prevents you from using some sort of a wired
gateway or something that would use PEAP, but I would guess that there are
functions that the adapter driver would need in order for it to be used with
some of those protocols and I would guess that wired adapter drivers don't
have them, by and large. There's no API for EAP...
