ReAuthentication

Timer

Specify how often wireless stations have to resend user names and passwords in

order to stay connected.
Enter a time interval between 10 and 9999 seconds. The default time interval is

1800 seconds (30 minutes). 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.

Idle Timeout

The ZyXEL Device automatically disconnects a wireless station from the wired

network after a period of inactivity. The wireless station needs to enter the user

name and password again before access to the wired network is allowed.
The default time interval is 3600 seconds (or 1 hour).

Group Key

Update Timer

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.

The ZyXEL Device default is 1800 seconds (30 minutes).
