ReAuthentication
Timer
Specify how often wireless stations have to resend user names and
passwords in order to stay connected.
Enter a time interval between 10 and 9999 seconds. The default time
interval is 1800 seconds (30 minutes). Alternatively, enter “0” to turn
reauthentication off.
Note: If wireless station authentication is done using a RADIUS
server, the reauthentication timer on the RADIUS server
has priority.
Idle Timeout The NWA automatically disconnects a wireless station from the wired
network after a period of inactivity. The wireless station needs to
enter the user name and password again before access to the wired
network is allowed.
The default time interval is 3600 seconds (or 1 hour).
Group Key
Update Timer
The Group Key Update Timer is the rate at which the AP sends a
new group key out to all clients. The re-keying process is the WPA
equivalent of automatically changing the group key for an AP and all
stations in a WLAN on a periodic basis. Setting of the Group Key
Update Timer is also supported in WPA-PSK mode. The NWA default
is 1800 seconds (30 minutes).
