Enter a value to set the interval at which the broadcast (group) key is refreshed for
clients associated to this VAP.
The valid range is 0-86400 seconds. A value of 0 indicates that the broadcast key is
not refreshed.
If you select WPA/WPA2 Enterprise, you can enable Pre-Authentication.
Click the Pre-Authentication check box if you want
pre-authentication packets. The pre-authentication information is relayed from the
access point the client is currently using to the target access point.
Enabling this feature can help speed up authentication for roaming clients who
connect to multiple access points. Only clients that connect by using WPA2 can use
this feature. It is not supported by the original WPA.

prevent the pre-authentication from being attempted again when the load is
lighter. A value of 0 represents no limit.
Enter the amount of minutes a PMK will be held by the AP. This applies to Pairwise
Master Keys (PMKs) generated by RADIUS, those that come from pre-
authentication, and those that are forwarded to the AP. Note that this time limit
can be overridden by RADIUS if the RADIUS server returns a longer time in the
Session-Timeout attribute for a particular user.
The valid values of this are from 1 – 1440 minutes. If you do not enter a value, APs
will not forward the PMK for the wireless client to other APs in case the client roams
to another AP.
