Full Description
Mention wireless networks, and the question of security will soon follow. It’s not surprising that in spite of compelling business arguments for going wireless, many companies are holding back because of security concerns. But, while it’s true that wireless networks create security issues that don’t exist in wired networks, the issues are not insurmountable. 802.11 Security shows how you can plan for and successfully contend with security obstacles in your wireless deployment.

You’ll learn how to configure a wireless client and to set up a WAP using either Linux or Free BSD. You’ll also find thorough information on controlling network access and encrypting client traffic.
