Note When you configure AES-CCM-only, TKIP-only, or AES-CCM + TKIP cipher TKIP encryption (not including any WEP 40 or WEP 128) on a radio interface or VLAN, every SSID on that radio or VLANmust be set to use the WPA key management. If you configure AES-CCM or TKIP on a radio or VLAN but do not configure key management on the SSIDs, client authentication fails on the SSIDs.

For a complete description of WPA and instructions for configuring authenticated key management, see the “Using WPA Key Management” section on page 6-6.

Enabling and Disabling Broadcast Key Rotation

Broadcast key rotation is disabled by default.

Note

Client devices using static WEP cannot use the access point when you enable broadcast key rotation.

 

When you enable broadcast key rotation, only wireless client devices using 802.1x authentication (such

 

as LEAP, EAP-TLS, or PEAP) can use the access point.

 

 

 

 

Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to enable broadcast key rotation:

 

 

 

 

Command

Purpose

Step 1

 

 

configure terminal

Enter global configuration mode.

Step 2

 

 

interface dot11radio { 0 1 }

Enter interface configuration mode for the radio interface. The

 

 

2.4-GHz radio is radio 0, and the 5-GHz radio is radio 1.
