Issue #138 Discussion Points In favor of requiring WTP to support both modes Both modes will be widely available, each with benefits in different situations Centralized encryption mode has desirable security properties (centralized control of keys, etc.) In favor of making WTP encrypt/decrypt mandatory and AC decrypt/encrypt optional Simplifies minimal implementation (only one mandatory mode on each end) We know that this mode is supported by all WTP and AC hardware solutions (and 802.11 chipsets) This mode is compatible with current and future 802.11 features (in 802.11e and 802.11n) |
