I haven't read the MS doc on securing 802.11 networks, but using a VPN is the your safest bet.. May also be worth using 2-factor authentication in this scenario.
What system would authenticate you? W2k, firewall, etc? -----Original Message----- From: Chris Blair [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 12 April 2004 14:47 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ActiveDir] Wlan & AD Security This maybe slightly Off Topic, Sorry. I am looking to deploy wireless access points for our users to access our AD. I am currently reading the white paper from Microsoft named "Enterprise Deployment of Secure 802.11 Networks Using Microsoft Windows". Has anyone else implemented this? I have also read about putting the AP's outside of the network and using VPN to access any AD related resources. Sounds easier, but is it as secure? Does anyone else have any other solutions?
