SECTION 7: SECURE COMMUNICATIONS
1. Encryption
The WZRDnet system can be set for secure or non-secure communication.
If security is enabled, the network employs 128-bit AES encryption with a
Network Key. Only handsets that have the same security key can
communicate on the WMN. Routers that associate with a secure WMN must
obtain the correct security key.
1.1 Network Key
The Network Key is used to apply 128-bit AES encryption to all network
level transmissions.
1.2 Key Update
The Network Key can be upgraded from WZRDnet Command Center
software. For instructions on changing the Network Key see the
WZRDnet Command Center User Manual.
