Abstract
A method for enabling communication of information in a secure communication system may include generating a notification when at least two configurators attempt to separately register with an 802.11 client station within a single configurator timing window. The method may further include detecting whether the at least two configurators attempt to register within the 802.11 client station within the single configurator timing window time duration. The notification may be generated in response to the detecting. The 802.11 client station may receive configuration information from at least a first of the at least two configurators, prior to the generation of the notification. The configuration information may include one or both of a service set identifier (SSID) and/or a passphrase. The notification may include an indication of detected multiple configurators.
