摘要: A method and system for handling roaming mobile nodes in a wireless network. The uses Subnet Context Manager to store current Network session keys, security policy duration of the (e.g. timeout) nodes, which is established when node initially authenticated. Pairwise transit keys are derived from network key. handles subsequent reassociation requests. When roams new access point, point obtains key validates by computing pairwise transient
