Abstract
A method for security authentication within a wireless network is disclosed. A method within an adhoc mesh network for two devices to quickly determine roles (i.e. which is the authenticator and which is the supplicant) while establishing a security association is provided for. The invention further provides for the inclusion of cached key information in the role negotiation process and the application of role negotiation to a shortened three-way handshake.
