WPA Group Key
Update Timer
The WPA Group Key Update Timer is the rate at which the AP (if using WPA-
PSK key management) or RADIUS server (if using WPA key management) sends
a new group key out to all clients. The re-keying process is the WPA equivalent of
automatically changing the WEP key for an AP and all stations in a WLAN on a
periodic basis. Setting of the WPA Group Key Update Timer is also supported in
WPA-PSK mode. The ZyAIR default is 1800 seconds (30 minutes).
Authentication

When you configure Key Management Protocol to WPA , the Authentication
Databases must be RADIUS Only . You can only use the Local User Database
Only with 802.1x Key Management Protocol .
