ACU Security
The ACU allows connection profiles of:
■ No security
Link encryption/decryption is disabled, no keys are installed.
■ Static key security
Keys are installed at driver initialization and profile change events. All
Atheros-supported encryption protocols are supported and the chosen
keys can be 40-, 104-, or 128-bits.
■ Dynamic key security
Pre-configured keys will be installed, but the expectation is that protocols
running outside the context of the ACU will be providing link security.
