configuration and 802.11 security risks. Hands-on labs feature how to use a wireless sniffer, how to capture packets and analyze WLAN traffic, authentication and association processes, use AirMagnet and WLSE to detect rouge access point, "harden" the access point, and build VLANs with different forms of authentication and encryption. Attendees will receive an introduction to Cisco ACS RADIUS attributes and actually configure Cisco ACU and ADU for LEAP, PEAP and EAP -FAST. 

To participate in the hands-on labs, please bring a laptop computer with an available 32-bit Card-Bus slot and an Ethernet port. The laptop’s operating systems must be either MS Windows 2000 (SP4) or XP (see note). The laptop should also have a 9-pin serial port or USB to serial adapter.

Note: Other Windows operating systems are not supported by some of the tools that will be used in class and therefore are not recommended.

After completing this course, the student should be able to:

• Identify methods of attack

The Managing your WLAN with the Cisco Wireless LAN Solution Engine course is targeted to technical engineers, network integrators and technical sales personnel, who need to know how to sell, design, install and support the Cisco WLSE in an advanced wireless network.

CAIAM 2.0 is a detailed study of Cisco’s Airespace solution. Through this course, you will gain experience planning, deploying and managing enterprise WLANs using the Airespace solution. After a quick overview of the Airespace solution, the course focuses on covering the components, features and deployment of the system. All of this is reinforced with hands-on configuration labs covering

such topics as CLI and Switch Web configurations, Open & Web Authentication configurations and end to end 802.1x PEAP-EAP-MSCHAPv2 configurations including client, switch & AAA server.The course also covers the Airespace network management system, Airespace Control System (ACS). Usage of this comprehensive tool is then reinforced with hands-on configuration labs covering such topics as configuration management, templates & heat maps. The course finishes by covering the maintenance of a WLAN and the Airespace systems by utilizing the Airespace solution from unique product features and standard maintenance procedures to detailed troubleshooting methodologies and debugging tools.

To participate in the hands-on labs, please bring a laptop computer with an available 32-bit CardBus slot. Laptop should have MS Windows 2000 or XP OS loaded. Laptop should also have a 9-pin serial port or USB to serial adapter.

After completing this course, the student should be able to:

• Understand the component makeup and features of the Cisco Airespace solution

• Understand how to propose and size the Cisco Airespace solution
