This question asks for the specific encryption standard used to secure communication links within a wireless mesh network.

AAESCorrect

Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is the industry-standard encryption algorithm used for securing mesh links in modern wireless mesh networks, including those adhering to IEEE 802.11s. AES provides robust data confidentiality and integrity, which is critical for secure communication between mesh nodes, often by encrypting the control and data tunnels.
