EoIP encryption??

[Josh Morris]

I cant seem to find a clear answer on this. I have an EoIP tunnel between a foreign controller and mobility anchor. I am trying to determine what is encrypted in the tunnel? I am performing a cpture to try and see but am plainly seeing source/destination traffic. What should or should I not be able to sniff in this tunnel?

At this time, the EoIP tunnel isn't encrypted. You used to be able to do this but that functionality has been removed.

I believe that when 8.0 comes out the tunnel will be capwap and could then be DTLS encrypted.

Thanks. Any idea why Cisco discontinued this option?

[Stephen Rodriguez]

I don't recall the reasoning. It was back when the WLC was LWAPP vs capwap. So it could have had something to do with the protocol change

Hi

EOIP encryption was discontinued from WLC version 5.0 and above because it didn't function as expected.

Any news about this anytime soon?
