Abstract
Techniques for performing optimized handovers of a client device between access points in wireless networks are provided. A first access point exchanges packets with a client device. The first access point receives a disassociation notice from the client device. In response to the disassociation notice, the first access point buffers one or more packets received for the client device in a first buffer. The first access point receives an indication from a controller to transmit the one or more packets in the first buffer to a second access point. In response to the indication, the first access point transmits the one or more packets in the first buffer to the second access point.
