kernel: kmod-macsec module for 4.9
MACsec/IEEE 802.1AE is useful to secure communication to and from endpoints at Layer 2. Starting with 4.6, the linux kernel provides a universal macsec driver for authentication and encryption of traffic in a LAN, typically with GCM-AES-128, and optional replay protection. http://standards.ieee.org/getieee802/download/802.1AE-2006.pdf Note: LEDE can utilize MACsec with a static connectivity association key (static PSK) with the ip-full package installed. <http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man8/ip-macsec.8.html> Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@gmail.com>
