LEPS for P2P connections

A further gain in security can be attained by additionally using LANCOM
Enhanced Passphrase Security (LEPS) which involves the matching of MAC
address and passphrase.
LEPS can be used to secure single point-to-point (P2P) connections with an
individual passphrase. Even if an access point in a P2P installation is stolen
and the passphrase and MAC address become known, all other WLAN con-
nections secured by LEPS remain secure, particularly when the ACL is stored
on a RADIUS server.
When using LANconfig for the configuration, you enter the passphrases of the
stations approved for the WLAN in the configuration area 'WLAN Security' on
the 'Stations' tab under the button Stations.
