To change to a different key on the interface, enable the new key while the old key
is still enabled. Dell Networking OS sends two packets: the first packet
authenticated with the old key and the second packet authenticated with the new
key. This process ensures that the neighbors learn the new key and communication
is not disrupted by keeping the old key enabled.
