Ok guys/gals... now after all the nice hot-air discussions about NT vs Uniks...
... can anybody tell me how I could protect a wireless LAN? *G*
That's serious... we're looking into buying one of those wireless devices which
will handle somewhere between 2 and 10 Mbps (best case though)... to connect a
couple of remote offices.
As far as I see I'm pretty cleartext through the air... and anybody with the
right equipment could sniff the hell out of my traffic...
So I guess something like this would be most sensible:
One of my sites(main master site):
[Main] [Encryp-] [ Fire ] [ Wire-]
[ ]---[ tion ]---[ ]---[ less ]- - - T H I S - I S - A I R -
[Site] [ box ] [ wall ] [device]
[ WLAN ] [ Fire ] [Encryp-] [Customer]
A I R - [ ]---[ ]---[ tion ]---[ ]
[Device] [ wall ] [ box ] [ Site ]
Well... hope it doesn't wrapp!!! ;-)
Isn't that a bit too complicated? I mean it's great to have a free 2 - 10 Mb
link to the customers (you pay somewhere around 14'000 sFr [1] monthly for a 2
Mb link to the net) but having 3to4 boxes on every site is really not too cool.
Can anybody suggest any good Wireless LAN manufacturer? Any suggestions to the
scenario (yeah I know that most firewalls can encrypt traffic... this scheme is
just schmematic *G*). I had a look at Lucent... however... they didn't had much
pictures ;-)))
