Securing Controller-to-Controller Communication
xSec can be used to secure data and control traffic passed between two controllers. The only requirement is
that both controllers be members of the same VLAN. To establish a point-to-point tunnel between the two
controllers, you need to configure the following for the connecting ports on each controller:
l The MAC address of the xSec tunnel termination point. This would be the MAC address of the other
controller.
l A 16-byte shared key used to authenticate the controllers to each other. You must configure the same
shared key on both controllers.
