TKIP
The 802.11i alive accumulation has bigger the aegis of 802.11 wireless LANs with an amend to
the 802.11 accepted in 2004. The Banausic Key Integrity Protocol, for example, fixes the keyreuse
problem of WEP. The TKIP action begins with a 128-bit “temporal key” aggregate among
clients and admission points. TKIP combines the banausic key with the client’s MAC abode and then
adds a almost ample 16-octet initialization agent to aftermath the key acclimated to encrypt data. This
procedure ensures that anniversary base uses altered key strings to encrypt data.
TKIP uses RC4 to accomplish the absolute encryption of abstracts frames, which is the aforementioned as WEP. A
major aberration from WEP, however, is that TKIP changes banausic keys periodically, according
to a ambience configured in the admission point by an administrator. This provides a dynamic
distribution adjustment that decidedly enhances arrangement security.
