Warehouse barcode scanners fail when 802.11r is enabled on the logistics SSID. What is a reasonable secure-roaming response?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
If FT makes scanners trip, do not pave the path with open or WEP. Try OKC where it works, or live with slower full reauth on that SSID. Compatibility is not a blank check to strip security.
Full Explanation
When clients lack reliable FT support, designers may enable OKC as an alternative fast-roaming aid or accept full EAP/rekey latency on roam. Compensating with open SSIDs or deprecated ciphers violates WLAN security policy. Direct unauthenticated bridging to sensitive VLANs increases blast radius.
