Customers are responsible for verifying approval for use in their country. Not all regulatory domains have been approved

To achieve 802.11 i security, the EAP method that is used must conform to both RFC 3748 and IETF draft-walker-ieee802-req-07 (Submitted as an Informational RFC). In RFC 3748, EAP- MD5-Challenge (Section 5.4), One-Time Password (Section 5.5) and Generic Token Card (Section 5.6), are non-com­pliant with the requirements specified in IETF draft-walker-ieee802-req-07 and thus do not support the 802.11i security claims when used with 802.11i.
