Day 4 – CWNA
computers, photography, wifi, wireless, work September 6th, 2007Today, September 6, 2007, we did some new stuff. We tried on Radius authentication which did not work very well since the equipment did not support MD5 encryption. Then testing some tools to capture packets.
There is another class going on… Linux class I guess. And one of the student is our former Practical/Industrial Student about a year ago. We do accept Practical Student in our office, but we don’t pay… gov policy. But if any student interested, duties we will give them are hardware/network/system maintenance/fixing/assembling and software development in ASP & SQL. He asked if he can do his practical at our office again… I said no problem… need some student to do some dirty job like carying boxes, server etc… LOL
And tomorrow, we’re going to have a real simple test… o come on!!!… I hate test!!!… according to the lecturer, it was the instruction from our mangement…. booo…. writing test is not the best way to measures someone performance… practical is!!!
Class going on very well… I never get bored… normally I get bored easily
emm…. not in heavy thinking yea… just surfin

Alex told me during lunchtime that the radius problem is caused by ms windows not having a true 802.1x environment. Hence he installed AEGIS protocol to make it work.
md5 is cryptographic hash function, not encryption?!
as for written test, what to do, even industrial exams and academic exams also mostly written… but depends lah how the question is presented. if just regurgitating, not so good lah, but if scenario based (where even bringing books will not help if you dont have working understanding of the question), then better.
