Macsec on T1024

[florianbraun]

Hello,

I am trying to set up encrypted communication between two T1024RDB via MacSec.

modprobe fsl-dpa-macsec ifs="fm1-mac4"

gives me

/sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/fsl_macsec_dpa/fm1-mac4

/sys/module/fsl_dpa_macsec

HostAP and wpa_supplicant establish connection (see screenshot)

I assigned ip adresses to fm1-mac4 ports on both machines and sent data between the two boards but it wont start encrypting anything going over those ports.

[bpe]

Can you explain how it was discovered that there was no encryption?

Can you provide a full console log, with all messages generated by u-Boot and Linux, all setup and diagnostic commands

you issued and the system reaction to them?

Hello,

I am using a hilscher netAnalyzer between my two boards to check their communication so i can see if it was encrypted or not.

The complete Log is attached, note that i use ethtool to set 100mbs so i can use the netanalyzer and "disassociated/deauthenticated due to inactivity" also happens if i continuesly ping the other system so Im guessing that connections not being used.

Much appreciated,

Florian
