2.8.1 Authentication Types

The CC33xx supports the following three authentication types: open, personal and enterprise. However, which types are supported depends on what mode the CC33xx is in.

  • STA Mode: open, personal and enterprise
  • AP Mode: open and personal

The first authentication type is open, which refers to APs that do not require a password to join.

The second is personal authentication, where the password is configured to the AP and the AP itself authenticates the peer device using a password. The supported personal authentication types are:

  • Wi-Fi Protected Access v2 (WPA2)
  • Wi-Fi Protected Access v3 (WPA3)

The third is enterprise authentication (supported in STA Mode), where a RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In Service) server behind the AP authenticates the peer device. The following list the supported enterprise authentication types:

  • WPA3 GCMP support + 192-bit
  • EAP Methods
    • TLS
    • TTLS
    • TTLS-MSCHAP
    • PEAPv0-MSCHAP
    • PEAPv1-TLS
