Once the layer2 security is been set to dot1x, the only data encryption it shows it WEP i believe this is a dynamic WEP...i would like to know does this support WPA data encryption.
but this doesnt fall under dot1x authentication...i believe its going to be a different layer2 security. the main concern is i need to use PEAP.
How secure is the communication between lightweight access points and WLC, i believe only control packets are encrypted and data packets are not encrypted....how could we secure this?
if you use wpa1+wpa2 as layer 2 security yor still going to do 802.1x+eap as long as you don't set a passphrase because then it becomes wpa-psk. All layer 2 security is decrypted at the ap and so is not running secure inbetween ap and wlc, if you want to have this secured you should use a vpn. However, in the early days when we didn't have controllers the data was also unsecure when it left the ap,

so u say if i select wpa1+wpa2 in layer2 security and select my wpa2 encryption as AES and auth key mgmt as 802.1X under wpa1+wpa2 parameters, i would be doing dot1x authentication that is peap under eap and AES encryption....correct me if i am wrong
