Initial pairing with Wifi Module ESP8266
Hey everybody, It´s my first time here in this forum. I have a question about wifi connection between two modules (ESP8266) / LPC1768. Hope u can help me :-)
Is it possible to use a initial key, for the first connection between node and AP like Bluetooth Connection (Peer-2-Peer).
My idea: A user get an personal key by Mail (not email) to connect once with a AP. The node encrypt his first message by the initial key to send authentifiication data to AP. The AP can filter the message by MAC address (the MAC is not encrypt, or ?!) to find the right initial key, like TAN. The AP can decrypt the message and check the authentification data.
After the successful registration, the node and the AP synchronize a new key (WPA2) to encrypt further messages.
I hope u understand my procedure.
Thank u and best regards Adam
