HP Exam HPE6-A78 Topic 2 Question 65 Discussion

Actual exam question for HP's HPE6-A78 exam

Question #: 65
Topic #: 2

What is one difference between EAP-Tunneled Layer security (EAP-TLS) and Protected EAP (PEAP)?

AEAP-TLS creates a TLS tunnel for transmitting user credentials, while PEAP authenticates the server and supplicant during a TLS handshake.

BEAP-TLS requires the supplicant to authenticate with a certificate, hut PEAP allows the supplicant to use a username and password.

CEAP-TLS begins with the establishment of a TLS tunnel, but PEAP does not use a TLS tunnel as part of Its process

DEAP-TLS creates a TLS tunnel for transmitting user credentials securely while PEAP protects user credentials with TKIP encryption.

Wait, PEAP doesn't use a TLS tunnel? That's like a pizza without the cheese, am I right?

Option D is just trying to be fancy with the 'TKIP encryption' bit. I'm going with B - simple and straightforward.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I'm torn between B and D, but I think B captures the main difference more concisely.

Option B sounds like the right answer to me. The certificate requirement is a notable distinction between the two.

Yes, that's true. EAP-TLS does require a certificate for authentication.

So, EAP-TLS focuses on securing user credentials while PEAP focuses on authenticating the server and supplicant.

Ah, I see. EAP-TLS is all about that TLS tunnel, while PEAP takes a different approach. Interesting!

I think the key difference is that EAP-TLS uses certificates for authentication, while PEAP allows more flexibility with username and password.
