order to stay connected. 

Enter a time interval between 10 and 9999 seconds. 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. 

Group Key 
Update

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.
