Cisco implementation of "IEEE 802.11i"

[l-biancucci]

When will CISCO have 802.11i implementation in its WLAN products? What is the progress so far?

802.11i is WPA and is already supported and certified in 12.2(11)ja IOS releases

I have found very little on the Cisco web site about the support for 802.11i or what will be required to implement it. After looking into it, I fould that 802.11i will probably use Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) for encryption, which is not currently supported on the Cisco AP's. For this reason I have decided to hold off purchasing the Cisco devices until the 802.11i support and requirements are clarified.
