Abstract
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a station may transmit, to an access point and using a pairwise transient key (PTK) that is based at least in part on an Snonce and an Anonce, a reassociation request that indicates message integrity check (MIC) information. The station may receive, from the access point, a reassociation response that indicates MIC information. The station may perform a reassociation with the access point based at least in part on a receipt of the reassociation response. Numerous other aspects are described.
Claims30
An apparatus for wireless communication at a station, comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- one or more processors, coupled to the memory, configured to:
- transmit, to an access point and using a pairwise transient key (PTK) that is based at least in part on an Snonce and an Anonce, a reassociation request that indicates message integrity check (MIC) information;
- receive, from the access point, a reassociation response that indicates MIC information;
- and
- perform a reassociation with the access point based at least in part on a receipt of the reassociation response.
An apparatus for wireless communication at an access point, comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- one or more processors, coupled to the memory, configured to:
- receive, from a station and based at least in part on a pairwise transient key (PTK) that is derived using an Snonce and an Anonce, a reassociation request that indicates message integrity check (MIC) information;
- transmit, to the station, a reassociation response that indicates MIC information;
- and
- perform a reassociation with the station based at least in part on the reassociation response.
A method of wireless communication performed by a station, comprising:
- transmitting, to an access point and using a pairwise transient key (PTK) that is based at least in part on an Snonce and an Anonce, a reassociation request that indicates message integrity check (MIC) information;
- receiving, from the access point, a reassociation response that indicates MIC information;
- and
- performing a reassociation with the access point based at least in part on a receipt of the reassociation response.
