I'm a bit confused about the combination of WEP with 802.1x. I feel like that might not be the best choice for security, but I can't recall the exact implications.

This question feels familiar; I practiced something similar where we had to secure a wireless network and use smart cards. I think both tasks can be accomplished with the right setup.

I think configuring PEAP-MS-CHAP v2 should allow for smart card authentication, but I wonder if there are any additional steps needed for that to work properly.

I remember studying 802.1x and how it secures wireless networks, but I'm not entirely sure if WEP is still considered secure enough.
