and other security information in a cache, so that if a client roams away

• When a WPA2 client is first authenticated, it receives a Pairwise Master
Key (PMK) that is used to generate other keys for unicast data encryption.

association can be configured with this command. When the lifetime
expires, the client security association and keys are deleted from the cache.
If the client returns to the access point, it requires full reauthentication.
