46 These functions provide encryption support for 802.11 device drivers.
50 .Fn ieee80211_crypto_attach
51 function initializes crypto support for the interface
53 The default is null crypto.
57 .Fn ieee80211_crypto_detach
58 function frees data structures associated with crypto support
63 The two above functions are automatically called by the interface
64 attach and detach routines, respectively.
68 .Fn ieee80211_crypto_encap
69 function encapsulates the packet supplied in mbuf
71 with the crypto headers given the for node
73 Software encryption is possibly performed.
74 In case of no specified key for
76 or multicast traffic, the default key for the interface
78 is used for encapsulation.
79 The key is returned in the case of successful encapsulation,
