As the development of 802.11 wireless network, there are more and more wireless LAN users. Thus wireless network security is increasingly concerned about this. The WEP encrypt algorithm has already been cracked, today. In this thesis, we use 802.1X authentication architecture and WPA encrypt algorithm to enhance user’s security. The access point integrated firewall functionality so that we can download the security policy for individual user from SPDS(Security Policy Decision Service). In order to decrese the handoff time, we modify the software which named hostapd. Our goal is to avoid processing 802.1X authentication again when users associate with the new access point.
