LANCOM VPN Option
LANCOM OAP-54
Wireless only
The LANCOM VPN Option is an upgrade which advances your device to a VPN
gateway with hardware encryption. In combination with the VPN encryption
which is then available, you can offer optimal security for every type of con-
nection.
VPN encryption for WAN connections, e. g. over the Internet
VPN encryption for LAN connections too, to protect data even from those
eavesdroppers who have physical access to the transmitting medium
(e. g. to the LAN cables).
802.11i encryption for point-to-point WLAN connections
802.11i encryption for connecting mobile WLAN clients
This function is suitable even for scenarios with high security requirements as
the entire data path is secured even over multiple intermediate points.
Further information about VPN functions and their configuration can
be found in the documentation for the LANCOM VPN Option and in
the LCOS reference manual.
