Update Timer
The
WPA Broadcast/Multicast 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 Broadcast/Multicast Key Update
Timer
is also supported in WPA-PSK mode. The Prestige default is 1800 seconds
(30 minutes).
