WCN_VALUE_TYPE_AUTHENTICATION_TYPE enumeration (wcntypes.h)
The WCN_VALUE_TYPE_AUTHENTICATION_TYPE enumeration defines the authentication types supported by the Enrollee (access point or station).
Syntax
typedef enum tagWCN_VALUE_TYPE_AUTHENTICATION_TYPE {
WCN_VALUE_AT_OPEN = 0x1,
WCN_VALUE_AT_WPAPSK = 0x2,
WCN_VALUE_AT_SHARED = 0x4,
WCN_VALUE_AT_WPA = 0x8,
WCN_VALUE_AT_WPA2 = 0x10,
WCN_VALUE_AT_WPA2PSK = 0x20,

} WCN_VALUE_TYPE_AUTHENTICATION_TYPE;
Constants
WCN_VALUE_AT_OPEN Value: 0x1 Specifies IEEE 802.11 Open System authentication. |
WCN_VALUE_AT_WPAPSK Value: 0x2 Specifies WPA security. Authentication is performed between the supplicant and authenticator over IEEE 802.1X. Encryption keys are dynamic and are derived through the preshared key used by the supplicant and authenticator. Note Not supported in WPS 2.0. |
WCN_VALUE_AT_SHARED Value: 0x4 Specifies IEEE 802.11 Shared Key authentication that uses a preshared WEP key. Note Not supported in WPS 2.0. |
WCN_VALUE_AT_WPA Value: 0x8 Specifies WPA security. Authentication is performed between the supplicant, authenticator, and authentication server over IEEE 802.1X. Encryption keys are dynamic and are derived through the authentication process. Note Not supported by most access points, consider WPA2PSK authentication instead. Note Not supported in WPS 2.0. |
WCN_VALUE_AT_WPA2 Value: 0x10 Specifies WPA2 security. Authentication is performed between the supplicant, authenticator, and authentication server over IEEE 802.1X. Encryption keys are dynamic and are derived through the authentication process. Note Not supported by most access points, consider WPA2PSK authentication instead. |
WCN_VALUE_AT_WPA2PSK Value: 0x20 Specifies WPA2 security. Authentication is performed between the supplicant and authenticator over IEEE 802 1X. Encryption keys are dynamic and are derived through the preshared key used by the supplicant and authenticator. |
WCN_VALUE_AT_WPAWPA2PSK_MIXED Value: 0x22 Specifies WPAPSK/WPA2PSK mixed-mode encryption. Note Available starting in Windows 8.1. |
