Decrypt error ?

meggerman

Level 1

I occasionally although rare get this security message..

"Decrypt error accurred for client '00:19:d2:28:42:b5' using 'Wpa' key on '802.11b/g' interface of AP '00:19:07:94:d5:00'. "

(mac`s are examples)

I use WPA2 Enterprise with a radius server and CSSC client on laptops.

and EAP-PEAP-TKIP as encription

would this message be somebody trying to gain access falsely ?

any ideas, it doesnt happen often but would seem that someone is trying to use a not supported authentication type ?

cheers
