Sept 2003 Wish Share PMK between multiple APs within a physical box Translate to Share keying information from a 802.1X authentication for use by 4-way handshakes on multiple APs within a physical box Tim Moore, Microsoft

Sept 2003 PMK PMK = MSK(0..31) MSK – master session key first 256bits MSK is what is delivered to AP from RADIUS server a AAA Key Tim Moore, Microsoft
4
Security Do not reuse symmetric key
Sept 2003 Security Do not reuse symmetric key Can derive keys from a single symmetric key and use the derived keys Tim Moore, Microsoft
5
Security fix Derive multiple PMKs from MSK, one per AP
Sept 2003 Security fix Derive multiple PMKs from MSK, one per AP PMK = PRF(MSK(0..31), “PMK Key”|BSSID) Now have unique symmetric key rather than reusing PMK Tim Moore, Microsoft

Sept 2003 Implementation issue How does Supplicant know which MSKs can be used to derive a PMK to another AP? Need additional information from AP Add a Authenticator Group MAC address A MSK from a 802.1X authentication from any authenticator with the same group address can be used to derive a PMK for use with this authenticator Tim Moore, Microsoft
