Anybody could create a default (LEDE) with authentication / security for

Hi Jason and welcome!
There's a long discussion on this here:
https://github.com/libremesh/lime-packages/issues/208
Basically you need a LibreMesh image with wpad-mesh instead of default
wpad-mini, this can be obtained selecting the network profile
"libremesh/encrypt-11s" on Chef:
https://chef.libremesh.org/
You can see here what this profile does:
https://github.com/libremesh/network-profiles/tree/master/libremesh/encrypt…
the profile also sets a password by default, but I think that if you set
one in /etc/config/lime following the example in lime-example
lime-example can be found in /docs/lime-example or here:
https://github.com/libremesh/lime-packages/blob/develop/packages/lime-docs/…
Then there's a bug in LEDE/wpa-supplicant that causes the impossibility
to use AP and encrypted 802.11s on the same interface, a solution is the
script selecting just one of the two functions for one interface and the
other function on the other interface (but I think it's possible to do
the same in a more clean way with interface specific options, explained
in lime-example in the section "WiFi interface specific options"):
