Tut1x

Tut1x is an open source implementation of IEEE 802.1x Port Based Network Access Control Supplicant part. It is a software research project at Tampere University of Technology, Finland. Our goal was to make an easily configurable and usable 802.1x supplicant for Linux and in the same time do research in the area of communications security, authentication protocols and programming techniques of communication software. The project was carried through in Institute of Communications Engineering at TUT as part of a TEKES funded Retiisi project.

Highlights

Easy configuration with one configuration file
Supports MD5, PAP, CHAP, MS-CHAP, MS-CHAPv2, TLS, PEAP and TTLS tunneling
Dynamic WEP keys on Linux
Text-based remote configuration program
Lightweight, uses only OpenSSL library
Modularised design, adding new protocols should prove to be a very small effort
MIT software license
Portable code, currently supporting Linux and Windows (Cygwin)
