Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

EAP-TLS (Extensible Authentication Protocol - Transport Layer Security) is an authentication protocol that uses certificates to provide mutual authentication between the client and the authentication server. It also allows for the encryption of user credentials, making EAP-TLS a secure and reliable authentication protocol. According to the CompTIA Security+ SY0-601 Official Text Book, EAP-TLS is well-suited for wireless networks due to its mutual authentication capabilities and its ability to securely store credentials. It is also the preferred authentication protocol for 802.1X wireless networks.

Yes, Enterprise mode requires an 802.1x server. EAP-FAST supports certificates. PEAP and EAP-TTLS require a certificate on the 802.1x server. EAP-TLS also uses TLS, but it requires certificates on both the 802.1x server and each of the clients.
