EAP-FAST (EAP-Flexible Authentication via Secured Tunnel)

The EAP-FAST protocol is a client-server security architecture that

encrypts EAP transactions with a TLS tunnel. While similar to PEAP, it

differs significantly as EAP-FAST tunnel establishment is based on strong

secrets unique to users. These secrets are called Protected Access Credentials

(PACs), which CiscoSecure ACS generates using a master key known only

to CiscoSecure ACS. Because handshakes based upon shared secrets are

intrinsically faster than handshakes based upon PKI, EAP-FAST is the

significantly faster of the two solutions that provide encrypted EAP

transactions. No certificate management is required to implement

EAP-FAST.

Use “EAP-FAST” to configure EAP-FAST as an authentication protocol,

select “Open,” “WPA,” or “Network EAP” as an association mode.

To configure EAP-FAST settings

1 Set 8021x Security as “EAP-FAST,” then choose one of the following:

•Set Association to “Open.”

•Set Association to “WPA.”

•Set Association to “WPA2.”
