Hi all,
I saw the latest discussion about the security layer and wants to
open a
new thread about discussion for access this layer over nl802154 and
putting a "very easy to use" functionality into iwpan.
I need to admit, I never tested myself this layer, also I told many
times that the step to put security layer functionality into
nl802154 is
a necessary step. For that reason I declare the security layer as
broken.
Several months ago I started to put these functionality into wpan-tools
and nl802154. It's just parsing a file at the moment and putting the
all
relevant entries for key, device, seclevel tables in cfg802154. Nothing
more. These tables are handled like an ACL in 802.15.4 (so far I know)
and necessary to do the "key lookup" procedure, on receiving decrypted
frames.
At weekend I will try to provide my stuff which I already have done and
will try to explain what the idea for the next necessary steps are.
It's
just to start a discussion "How do deal with accessing llsec over
nl802154/cfg802154".
After we can accessing the sec layer over nl802154, we can hopefully
remove
the old interface stuff.
Does this sounds like a plan?
I think this is a good idea and I would gladly gve this some testing
next week. I bet Simon would do as well as he is currently looking
into it.
Yes it would nice to tidy this all up and get a stable interface. I
currently have some time to look at this and do some testing.
You have by any chance some small example code you used for testing the
llc stuff? It would be handy to start with something small and easy.
regards
Stefan Schmidt
