Secure cloud connection

One of the top OpenSync priorities is ensuring the highest level of data privacy by enforcing state-of-the-art security standards, such as client authentication and data encryption for all the nodes that connect to the OpenSync SDN contoller. These security mechanisms require node certificates and encryption keys. Connection is secure by using TLS 1.2 and two way SSL mutual authentication.

...

There should be 8 VAP per radio available (1 STA + 7 AP’s) for OpenSync to use simultaneously. SDN controller will orchestrate them per customer needs in runtime.
