Hi, I am in the process of providing a solution for an SME that currently employs both wired and wireless clients. I can provide rudimentary security for the WLAN by hardcoding MAC addresses on the AP and disabling DHCP amongst other methods. My question to the list is this, besides making sure that very little information is sent via cleartext in wireless mode to circumvent wireless sniffing, etc. what sorts of methods could I use to effectively segregate the WLAN and LAN? We are talking about a M$ environment with winXP being the operating system on most laptops and workstations. Would it be easier to just have a VPN setup when clients are forced to use wireless as their access method?
