T1024RDB MacSec Network

[florianbraun]

Good day to you,

I want a setup like this:
Machine A (Linux) -> T1024rdb A ---(Macsec)--> T1024rdb B -> Machine B (Windows)

I have already established the Macsec connection (see screenshot) but

1. I can`t figure out how to send data from T1024rdb A to T1024rdb B via that connection.

2. I also dont know how to send from Machine A to Machine B over the rdbs (macsec or w/o)

Thank you in advance,

Flo

MACSec operates transparently to IP and above levels. Assign IP

addresses to all connected interfaces, setup  routing tables that reflect

your network topology on all connected hosts, use any network

application to exchange data. MACSec will automatically protect

any traffic that flows  between hosts that have a security

association over the controlled interface (fm-mac1 in your case).

cat /sys/kernel/debug/fsl_macsec_dpa/<interface> to check the operation.

If not familiar with Linux IP networking, study this:

Have a great day,

So i set up the IP adresses and macsec and just let them ping each other but then i get "disassociated and deauthenticated due to inactivity" so im guessing its not working?

also im missing the "/sys/kernel/debug/fsl_macsec_dpa". Where or how do i get that?

Much appreciated,

Flo
