Broadcast Key Rotation
EAP authentication provides dynamic unicast WEP keys for client
devices but uses static broadcast, or multicast, keys. When you enable
broadcast WEP key rotation, the access point provides a dynamic
broadcast WEP key and changes it at the interval you select. When
you enable this feature, only wireless client devices using LEAP or
EAP-TLS authentication can associate to the access point. Client
devices using static WEP (with open, shared key, or EAP-MD5
authentication) cannot associate.
Synchronizing Security Features
In order to use any of the security features discussed in this section,
both your client adapter and the access point to which it will associate
must be set appropriately. Table 5.1 indicates the client and access
point settings required for each security feature. This chapter also
provides specific instructions for enabling the security features on
your client adapter. Refer to the Cisco Aironet Access Point Software
Configuration Guide for instructions on enabling the features on the
access point.
