Once the connection is setup, the client can authenticate with the AP. For this, it sends an
ClientResponseEncrypted
message, using packet type 0xab
.
A few different authentication methods are available, athough only one has really been tried, the traditional user / password based authentication.
The AP will then reply with either a APWelcome
message using packet type 0xac
if authentication
is successful, or an APLoginFailed
with packet type 0xad
otherwise.
TODO: investigate other authentication methods (Zeroconf, facebook, stored credentials)
