I would like our network administrators to enable Open Authentication with EAP in addition to Network-EAP on our Cisco Access Point-based wireless network so that I can use a Centrino integrated wireless card. LEAP is used for authentication with our domain usernames and passwords.
Are there any security risks associated with using "Open Authentication with EAP" over "Network-EAP"?
A google search and search of the cisco web site did not answer this question. From my fairly rudimentary knowledge of these matters it seems like the only difference is the order in which certain association / authentication steps take place.
Any clarification to this would be helpful. If someone could provide a link to a document with further info that would be great as well.
