802.11v configuration
802.11v roaming can be organized between any networks (open/encrypted). If an access point is configured
to work with 802.11v, the access point sends a special packet (BSS Transition) to the client side during its
operation at the command of the administrator/controller, recommending that the client roam. Whether or not
the client device will follow the access point's recommendation is impossible to guarantee, because the
decision to switch to another access point is ultimately made by the client side. In conjunction with the
802.11k standard, in a message with a recommendation to switch the client is also sent a list of recommended
roaming access points, indicating on what channel each point works and what standard (IEEE 802.11n/ac/ax).
Then the client analyzes the air and depending on the signal level, channel load, the configuration of the
opposite access point makes a decision.
This type of roaming is only available for client devices that support 802.11v.

switch to another access point within 15 seconds of sending this message, the access point will forcibly
disconnect the client device from the wireless network)

without forcing the client device to disconnect from the wireless network)
