IntroductionOverview Copyright © 2007 Marvell CONFIDENTIAL Doc. No. MV-S800477-00 Rev. BAugust 14, 2007, 2.00 Document Classification: Proprietary Information Page 9 1 Introduction1.1 OverviewThis document describes the functions of the Marvell Wireless Client Card Configuration Utility for the following Marvell® IEEE 802.11a/g/b and draft-802.11n WLAN client cards:Marvell CB-85 CardBus WLAN Client CardMarvell MB-85 Mini PCI WLAN Client CardMarvell EC-85 PCI Express WLAN Client CardMarvell MC-85 PCI Express WLAN Client Mini CardMarvell high throughput client cards are both IEEE 802.11a/g/b and draft-802.11n compliant.1.2 Wireless NetworksThe Marvell client cards operate similar to Ethernet cards, except that a radio replaces the wires between communication devices. All existing applications that operate over Ethernet operate over a Marvell wireless network without any modification or need for special wireless networking software. The Marvell client cards support the following network technologies:Ad-Hoc (peer-to-peer group) modeAccess Point (AP) Infrastructure mode1.2.1 Ad-Hoc ModeIn Ad-Hoc mode (also referred to as peer-to-peer mode), wireless clients send and receive information to other wireless clients without using an AP. In comparison to Infrastructure mode, this type of WLAN connection only contains wireless clients. Ad-Hoc mode is useful for establishing a network where wireless infrastructure does not exist or where services are not required. Two or more computers can establish an Ad-Hoc network when within range of one another. Ad-Hoc mode is used to connect network computers at home or in small offices. It can also be used to set up a temporary wireless network for meetings.1.2.2 Infrastructure ModeIn Infrastructure mode, wireless devices communicate with other wireless devices or devices on the LAN side wired network through APs. When communicating through wired networks, client cards send and receive information through APs.Access Points are typically strategically located within an area to provide optimal coverage for wireless clients. A large WLAN uses multiple APs to provide coverage over a wide area. APs connect to a LAN through a wired Ethernet connection. APs send and receive information from the LAN through this wired connection. Most corporate WLANs operate in Infrastructure mode because they require access to the wired LAN in order to use services such as file servers or printers.NoteFor information on installing the Marvell Wireless Configuration Utility, the Marvell client card, and the Marvell Windows driver, see the CB-85/MB-85/EC-85/MC-85 Installation Guide.For a list of acronyms used throughout this document see Appendix B, Acronyms and Abbreviations, on page 69.

BAugust 14, 2007, 2.00 Document Classification: Proprietary Information Page 13 2.3 SecurityImplementing a security infrastructure to monitor physical access to WLAN networks is more difficult than monitoring access on wired networks. Unlike wired networks where a physical connection is required, anyone within the range of a wireless AP can send and receive frames, as well as listen for frames being sent. IEEE 802.11 and IEEE 802.1X define a set of standards and protocols for use in minimizing the security risks on wireless networks. These include the authentication modes used to authenticate the wireless client station and the wireless AP to be connected, complemented by different encryption methods used for data to be transmitted over the wireless network. Four of these security standards are as follows:802.1X—802.1X authentication provides authenticated access to 802.11 wireless networks and to wired Ethernet networks. 802.1X minimizes wireless network security risks by providing user and computer identification, centralized authentication, and encryption services based on the Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) algorithm. 802.1X supports the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP). EAP allows the use of different authentication methods, such as smart cards and certificates.Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP)—WEP is a basic security implementation according to the IEEE 802.11 standard. Due to various security issues WEP encryption is vulnerable and was therefore superseded by WPA and WPA2 encryption.Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)—WPA is a security implementation based on a subset of the 802.11i standard. WPA provides enhanced security for wireless networks when used with the Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) and the Message Integrity Check (MIC) algorithms.Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 (WPA2)—WPA2 is the next generation Wi-Fi security, based on the final 802.11i standard. WPA2 offers the strongest available security in the form of Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) level encryption, plus faster roaming between APs.Security ConfigurationsThe Marvell Wireless Configuration Utility supports the following security features:Authentication Modes•Open System•Shared Key•Auto Switch•WPA-PSK•WPA2-PSK•WPA•WPA2•802.1X Authentication Protocol (including support for Cisco® Compatible Extensions (CCX))- EAP/Transport Layer Security (EAP/TLS) (equivalent to Microsoft “Smart Card or other Certificate”)- Protected EAP (PEAP)- EAP/Tunneled TLS Authentication Protocol (EAP/TTLS)- Light EAP (LEAP)- EAP-Flexible Authentication via Secure Tunneling (EAP-FAST)Encryption Methods•Security Off•WEP (including support for Cisco Message Integrity Check (CMIC) and Cisco Key Integrity Protocol (CKIP))
