CISCO-LWAPP-DOT11-CLIENT-CCX-TC-MIB

This module defines the textual conventions used throughout the Cisco enterprise MIBs designed for implementation on Central Controllers (CC) that terminate the Light Weight Access Point Protocol tunnel from Light-weight LWAPP Access Points, specifically for the functions of the Cisco Client Extensions (CCX) program. This MIB provides textual conventions used in the configuration and status information mibs about the CCX clients that the controller is aware of. GLOSSARY Light Weight Access Point Protocol ( LWAPP ) This is a generic protocol that defines the communication between the Access Points and the Central Controller. Mobile Node ( MN ) A roaming 802.11 wireless device in a wireless network associated with an access point. Mobile Node, Mobile Station(Ms) and client are used interchangeably. Cisco Client eXtentions (CCX) The Cisco Client Extensions (CCX) Program is a program of working through silicon providers to embed Cisco client technology in wireless client reference designs, and to promote compliant and interoperable third-party clients with Cisco's infrastructure, thus further driving wireless adoption in the market. Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) The Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) is an Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) standard that provides an infrastructure for network access clients and authentication servers to host plug-in modules for current and future authentication methods and technologies. Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) A security method defined by 802.11. WEP uses a symmetric key stream cipher called RC4 to encrypt the data packets.
