Configuration with 
WEBconfig or Telnet
Under WEBconfig or Telnet you can set the settings for the point-to-point
connections under the following paths:    
6.3
Access points in relay mode
Access points equipped with two wireless modules can be used to establish
wireless bridges across multiple stations. Each wireless module is configured
as a 'Master' and then 'Slave' in turn.
The use of relay stations each equipped with two WLAN modules
simultaneously solves the problem of the "hidden station", by which
the MAC addresses of the WLAN clients are not transferred over mul-
tiple stations.
6.4
Security for point- to-point connections
IEEE 802.11i can be used to attain a significant increase in the security of
WLAN point-to-point connections. All of the advantages of 802.11i such as
the simple configuration and the powerful encryption with AES are thus avail-
able for P2P mode, as are the improved security of the passphrase from the
LANCOM Enhance Passphrase Security (LEPS).
6.4.1
Encryption with 802.11i/WPA
To activate the 802.11i encryption for a correctly configured P2P connection,
adjust the settings for the first logical WLAN network in the appropriate
WLAN interface (i.e. WLAN-1 if you are using the first WLAN card for the P2P
