    Shawn Jackman (Jack) CWNE#54 is a personal friend and has been a mentor to me for many years.  I've had the pleasure and opportunity to work with Jack for 4 years. Jack is a great teacher who takes complex 802.11 standards and breaks them down so almost anyone can understand the concept at hand. I'm excited for you brother. Great job and job well done! Put another notch in the belt!

OTAP UPDATE 9.12.09: OTAP to be removed from future code releases and RRM packet encrytped !

DateSaturday, September 12, 2009 at 10:45AM

OTAP UPDATE 9.12.09: This week Cisco released a plan to follow up with a patch update to 6.x, which REMOVES OTAP discovery method and encrypts the information element in the RRM discovery packet.

I like this move and something I stated from the early release of this vulnerability. The RRM packet sending controller IP information in the clear to share RRM neighbor information is not necessary for access points that have already joined a controller. This infromation should be encrypted.This is comforting news for ANY enterprise or healthcare security team.

I am disappointed the release will be 6.x. Many users are on harbor code 4.2.x who won’t be able to take advantage of this patch. I suspect Cisco will release a 4.2 fix as well, we shall see!
