WPA w/ RADIUS for WinXP

[Ian Pritchard]

Hi,

I saw the following announcement that Windows XP has a patch that will allow 
it to support WPA:

http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=815485

As far as I understand it, WPA includes 802.1x. The document states:

"For environments with a RADIUS infrastructure, Extensible Authentication 
Protocol (EAP) and RADIUS is supported."

It also says:

"802.1x authentication is required in WPA"

However, I can't find anything there or in the WPA documentation which 
specifies which EAP flavours are required. Will EAP-TLS be mandatory, or 
TTLS, MD5 or one of the other flavours? What about AES?

Thanks,

Ian
