Abstract
A station initiates fast BSS transition by a station from the source access point to the target access point. The target access point detects a failure by the Wi-Fi controller to retrieve a PMK-RO key for a requested PMKROName is detected. The PMKROName is parsed from an authentication request of the station. The failure can result in requiring a fresh BSS connection by the station. Responsive to the failure detection, a PMK-RO key is generated in cooperation with the Wi-Fi controller, to prevent requiring the fresh BSS connection. The PMK-R0 key further helps to support fast transition between access points.
