Authentication
7-53
Command Usage
• The access point uses EAPOL (Extensible Authentication
Protocol Over LANs) packets to pass dynamic unicast
session and broadcast keys to wireless clients. The 802.1x
broadcast-key-refresh-rate
command specifies the
interval after which the broadcast keys are changed. The
802.1x session-key-refresh-rate
command specifies the
interval after which unicast session keys are changed.
• Dynamic broadcast key rotation allows the access point to
generate a random group key and periodically update all
key-management capable wireless clients.
Example
802.1x session-key-refresh-rate
This command sets the interval at which unicast session keys are
refreshed for associated stations using dynamic keying.
