DESCRIPTIONS
When a wireless client moves from one AP's coverage area to
another, it performs an authentication procedure (exchanging
security information) with the new AP. Instead of re-authenticating a
client each time it returns to the AP's coverage area, which can cause
delays to time-sensitive applications, the AP and the client can store
(or "cache") and use information about their previous authentication.
Select Enable to allow PMK caching, or Disable to switch this
feature off.
Pre-authentication allows a wireless client to perform authentication
with a different AP from the one to which it is currently connected,
before moving into the new AP's coverage area. This speeds up
roaming. Select Enable to allow pre-authentication, or Disable to
switch it off.
Click Apply to save your changes.
