Full Description

Scope

This standard was developed to provide security in IEEE 802 Local Area Networks (LANs) and Metropolitan Area Networks (MANs). The model for providing security services is described in clause 1. A Secure Data Exchange (SDE) protocol for IEEE 802 LANs and MANs is defined in clause 2. Key management and system/security management in IEEE 802 LANs and MANs are described in clauses 3 and 4. While SDE is independent of any key management or system management implementation, the security services described in this standard depend on management information provided by management entities.

Abstract

New IEEE Standard - Superseded.A security protocol that can be used to protect IEEE 802 Local Area Networks (LANs) and Metropolitan Area Networks (MANs) is described. This Open Systems Interconnection (OSI)Layer 2 security protocol can be used to provide the security services of confidentiality and connectionless integrity. In conjunction with key management or system management, the security services of data origin authentication and access control may also be provided.
