n Timer
Specify how often wireless stations have to resend user names and
passwords in order to stay connected.
Enter a time interval between 10 and 9999 seconds. The default time
interval is
1800 seconds (30 minutes). Alternatively, enter “0” to turn
reauthentication off.
Note: If wireless station authentication is done using a RADIUS
server, the reauthentication timer on the RADIUS server has
priority.
Group Key
Update The Group Key Update Timer is the rate at which the AP sends a new
group key out to all clients. The re-keying process is the WPA equivalent
of automatically changing the group key for an AP and all stations in a
WLAN on a periodic basis. Setting of the
Group Key Update Timer is
also supported in WPA-PSK mode. The ZyXEL Device default is 3800
seconds (or 1 hour).
