most of us would simply follow the FreeRADIUS EAP-TLS guide (which
covers PEAP etc too!) - which works 'out of the box' when you
do a make install and run it for the first time,

followed by following the cisco document on how to configure WPA
for the 1200 series AP. 

then, configure FreeRADIUS client.conf to allow the AP to talk to
the FR server

install the FR CA cert onto the Windows client. et voila. thats
most of the work done (or all of it if you EAP-TLS)

so. what exactly is your problem?  

have you followed the cisco docs so that your AP is configured to
do WPA and has the RADIUS server configured ?  whats the debug
output from your FR daemon?
