Can you encrypt RRM packets (so that WLC IP address is exposed to all)

Hi Guys,
As RRM packets include the WLC controllers IP address in the payload of the packet (can decode the hex). Is there a way to encryp this so that my freindly wireless neighbors do NOT see the address of my WLCs as explained in this document for OTAP?
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6366/products_tech_note09186a008093d74a.shtml
And in this document http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk722/tk809/technologies_tech_note09186a008072c759.shtml
APs periodically send out Neighbor Messages, sharing information about themselves, their controllers, and their RF Group Name. These neighbor messages can then be authenticated by other APs sharing the same RF Group Name.
Would MFP help in this situation?????
Many thx
Ken

Thanks Jerome,
We have disabled OTAP as we dont need the feature, but we cant disable RRM otherwise DCA and TPC would not work in the case of an AP failure to correct coverage holes.
So the fact that RRM discloses information like Controller IP addresses and RF group names to the public domain is still (I feel) a bit of a non essential risk?
Could the RRM neighbor packets either not include such information, (would probably have to include the RF group name, but why the controller IP address) or encrypt these packets with the MFP MIC?
I am going to test the Infrastructure MFP this weekend and then perform another RF packet capture to see if the RRM packets between established APs are able to be captured and readable, but if you or anyone else have a definite anwser to MFP encrypting RRM packets that would be good mate :))
All the best and thx for the response my freind :)
Ken

    Pages '09 will open .doc files from Word 2004. The Mac OS is not what is in question. Pages '09 opens Word 2004 documents and if the same version of Pages will run in Lion and in Mountain Lion ..... Thats all that matters.

    Hi,
    You can either use Bridge and the Output workspace, or grab optional plug-ins for CS5 and run Ps on OSX in the 32 bit mode. (Or grab the excellent 3rd party script, Contact Sheet X, and run that in Ps. http://ps-scripts.sourceforge.net/ContactSheetX/csx.html).

    Is there anyway that an iPad can be encrypted (besides using the standard passcode) so that patient information would not be jeopardized if an iPad were stolen/lost?

    Passcodes can be enforced with Exchange EAS and products such as Airwatch http://www.air-watch.com/platforms/iphone/policyenforcement.html.  You can also use the iphone config utility http://www.tomsitpro.com/articles/ipad-iphone-security-iphone-configuration-unil ity,2-179-2.html or Lion server Profile Manager to enforce passcode requirements.

  • Can you restore from a backup that was made on a previous version of iOS?

    Hello.
    I had an iPhone 3GS unning whatever the latest proper version of iOS currently is at the time of writing (4.3.5, is it?) but on Saturday I was on a rather drunken night out and I lost my phone.
    Silly me.
    But I was out of contract and the new iPhone (4S or 5 or whatever) is going to be announced on Tuesday next week (just been confirmed by Apple today) so I'm just going to make do with an old, spare Nokia until the new iPhone is available in the UK.
    Once the new iPhone launches I will buy it, plug it into iTunes and just restore from backup and I'm back in business.
    Except for one thing... The new iPhone will have iOS 5 installed and my last backup before I lost my 3GS was done on iOS 4.3.5.
    Is this going to be a problem or can you restore from a backup made with an older version of the OS?
    I've never done it before so I don't know.
    J

    You "should" have no problem doing that. I say should, because you can't restore a backup made with a higher iOS on a device running a lower iOS, I.E. - you can't restore a backup made from a device running, let's say iOS 4.3.5 on a device running iOS 4.2.10. However, iOS 5.0 will present many new features and since it has not been released, I have no way of stating with certainty that doing as you plan will not present any problems. Past history indicates it won't, but we'll have to wait & see.

  • Can you share photos between machines that use the same wifi network? Thanks for your help.

    Can you share photos on i-photo between machines that use the same network or even between different accounts on the same machine? I know you can share music on i-tunes but can you do the same on i-photo? Thanks for your help.

    Yes.
    If you want the other user to be able to see the pics, but not add to, change or alter your library, then enable Sharing in your iPhoto (Preferences -> Sharing), leave iPhoto running and use Fast User Switching to open the other account. In that account, enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. Your Library will appear in the other source pane.
    Any user can drag a pic from the Shared Library to their own in the iPhoto Window.
    Remember iPhoto must be running in both accounts for this to work.
    You can figure out using it with another machine from that too
