Fast Roaming
You can configure the following fast roaming options for
the WLAN SSID:
•
Opportunistic Key Caching: You can enable Oppor-
tunistic Key Caching (OKC) when WPA-2 Enterprise
and Both (WPA2 & WPA) encryption types are se-
lected. If OKC is enabled, a cached pairwise master
key (PMK) is used when the client roams to a new
AP. This allows faster roaming of clients without the
need for a complete 802.1X authentication.
•
802.11r: Selecting this check box enables fast BSS
transition. The Fast BSS Transition mechanism min-
imizes the delay when a client transitions from one
BSS to another within the same cluster. This option
is available only when WPA-2 Enterprise and WPA-2
personal encryption keys are selected.
•
802.11k: Selecting this check box enables 802.11k
roaming on the SSID profile. The 802.11k protocol
enables APs and clients to dynamically measure the
available radio resources. When 802.11k is enabled,
APs and clients send neighbor reports, beacon re-
ports, and link measurement reports to each other.
•
802.11v: Selecting this check box enables the
802.11v-based BSS transition. 802.11v standard de-
fines mechanisms for wireless network management
enhancements and BSS transition management. It
allows client devices to exchange information about
the network topology and RF environment. The BSS
transition management mechanism enables an AP to
request a voice client to transition to a specific AP, or
suggest a set of preferred APs to a voice client, due
to network load balancing or BSS termination. It also
helps the voice client identify the best AP to transi-
tion to as they roam.
