CompTIA Security+ (SY0-501) — Question 810

An engineer is configuring a wireless network using PEAP for the authentication protocol. Which of the following is required?

Answer options

• A. 802.11n support on the WAP
• B. X.509 certificate on the server
• C. CCMP support on the network switch
• D. TLS 1.0 support on the client

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The X.509 certificate on the server is essential for PEAP to establish a secure encrypted tunnel for client authentication. The other options, while related to network functionality, do not directly pertain to the requirements of PEAP authentication, making them incorrect in this context.
