Hi!
My question might be very basic but I don't understand why the traffic in a wifi network is encrypted between the peer entities end not end to end?
If I understood correctly the station and ap exchange a pairwise temporal key to encrypt their traffic. So if station a (SA) wants to communicate with station b (SB) the package will be encrypted first with the SA-AP-key by SA, on arrival at the ap decrypted and again encrypted with the SA-AP-key.
Would be glad if somebody could help me with this. :)
