Abstract
As WEP has been shown to be vulnerable to multiple attacks, a huge effort has been placed on specifyin an access con trol mechan ism to be usedin wirelessin stallation s. However, properties of the wireless environment have been exploited to perform multiple DoS attacks against current solution s, such as 802.11/802.1X. In this paper we discuss the main wireless idiosyncrasies and then eed for taking them into account when design n an access control mechanism that can eusedin othwireless and wired networks. We present the design of a mobility-aware access control mechanism suitable for both wireless and wired environments and show how the DoS attacks discussed can be prevented by implementing secure association and other essential services. The architecture proposed here, composed of the SIAP and SLAP protocols, uses public keys together with the RSA and AES encryption algorithms to provide a flexible service.
