The two devices disassociate, and then reassociate and authenticate with 
the new settings.
A user wishes to enroll a client station on a WPS-enabled WLAN by 
supplying the WAP device administrator with the PIN of the client device. 
The administrator enters this PIN in the configuration utility of the WAP 
device and triggers the device enrollment. The new enrollee and the WAP 
device exchange WPS messages, including a new security configuration, 
disassociate, reassociate, and authenticate.
A WAP device administrator purchases a new WAP device that has been 
certified by the Wi-Fi Alliance to be compliant with WPS version 2.0, and 
wishes to add the WAP device to an existing (wired or wireless) network. 
The administrator turns on the WAP device, and then accesses a network 
host that supports the WPS registration protocol. The administrator enters 
the PIN of the WAP device in the configuration utility of this external 
registrar, and triggers the WPS registration process. (On a wired LAN, the 
WPS protocol messages are transported through Universal Plug and Play, 
or UPnP, protocol.) The host registers the WAP as a new network device and 
configures the WAP with new security settings.
A WAP device administrator has just added a new WAP device to an 
existing (wireless or wired) network through WPS, and wishes to grant 
network access to a new client device. The device is enrolled through 
either the PIN or Push-Button Control (PBC) methods described above, but 
this time the device enrolls with the external registrar, with the WAP device 
acting solely as a proxy.
A wireless device that does not support WPS must join the WPS-enabled 
WLAN. The administrator, who cannot use WPS in this case, instead 
manually configures the device with the SSID, public shared key, and 
cryptography modes of the WPS-enabled WAP device. The device joins 
the network.
The PIN is either an eight-digit number that uses its last digit as a checksum value, 
or a four-digit number with no checksum. Each of these numbers may contain 
leading zeroes.
The WPS standard assigns specific roles to the various components in its 
architecture: 
Enrollee—A device that can join the wireless network.
AP—A device that provides wireless access to the network.
Registrar—An entity that issues security credentials to enrollees and 
configures APs.
