The default is 1812. - Shared Secret: This is shared between the Wireless Access Point and the RADIUS Server while authenticating the supplicant. • Reauthentication Time. The time interval in seconds after which the supplicant will be authenticated again with the RADIUS Server. The default is 3600 seconds. • Global-key Re-Key Time. Check on this option to enable Re-keying of Global Key. The Global Key Re-Key can be done based on time interval in seconds or number of packets exchanged using the global key. The default is 3600 seconds. • Update if any station disassociates.
