Usage Guidelines

  • To ensure network security, update keys in a timely manner. There are several key update modes.
  • The wapi key-update command sets the USK and MSK update mode. If the interval for updating an MSK or a USK is too long, key security cannot be ensured.
  • If disable is specified, keys will not be updated.

Example

# Set the USK update mode to time-based update.
