ABSTRACT:
A method is disclosed for providing security to a client-to-client communication. The method includes authenticating a first client and a second client with an access point device, transmitting the packet to the security device and modifying a destination media access control (MAC) address of a packet from the first client to a MAC address of a security device for a first network. The packet contains a destination internet protocol (IP) address of the second client. The access point device and the first and second clients belong to the first network. The security device is located between the first network and a second network.
