Abstract
A method and device for protecting a local area network including nodes allowing an extension of wireless communication coverage in order to increase the range of the local area network by coordinating a plurality of access points integrated in the nodes, the nodes being interconnected by a backhaul subnetwork, each node in the backhaul subnetwork transmitting at least one wireless network referred to as a fronthaul network, the method includes the steps of: detecting a connection of a station by a cable connection to a network switch included in the local area network, the network switch being connected to the backhaul subnetwork by a cable connection, establishing secure connections between each node if the connection of the station by a cable connection to the network switch is detected, managing the nodes of the network connected to the network switch with filtering rules applied to the data received by the nodes.
