Wireless Security

Drawbacks in IEEE 802.11s Standards-based Mesh

• The security model commonly used by wireless backhauling equipment in the market, based on IEEE 802.11s mesh standards, has two prominent drawbacks:

• It uses plaintext mesh ID that malicious entity can retrieve for attack

• It uses pre-shared key for authentication that previous user may know and malicious party can hack easily

P2’s Proprietary Wireless Security Architecture

• Enhanced 3-factor authentication mechanism

• Using a mesh ID, a mesh key and a static key to generate the “real” connection keys necessary for the mesh link setup

• The static key is unknown to the user and not easily exposed

• 2-tier irreversible key generation algorithm

• Instead of directly using user-defined keys, a 2-tier hash mechanism is used

• Impossible to deduce the original encryption keys

• Unique per-link packet encryption

• Based on proven 128-bit AES encryption

• Further dividing the encryption key into two parts, consisting a 32-byte mesh ID and a 16-byte mesh key, to make the encryption more robust

• MAC-based access control

• Blocks unpermitted connection even if all the connection details above were obtained but the connecting device is not in the MAC access list
