In order to successfully mitigate the new TKIP attack, organizations
need to turn on key rotation for stations, where each minute of key use
represents one byte of plaintext an attacker can recover for a given packet.

The consensus so far is that 2 minutes before the next key rotation
(PTK, not PMK; no RADIUS involvement here) is reasonable.  I've been
looking around, but I haven't found if this is possible on Cisco, Meru,
Trapeze or Symbol products.  A friend at Aruba pointed out the steps for
an Aruba 3.x controller:

enable
 configure terminal
 aaa authentication dot1x <profilename>
 multicast-keyrotation
 unicast-keyrotation
 timer mkey-rotation-period 120
 timer ukey-rotation-period 120

Does anyone know if this is possible on Cisco LWAPP AP's, Cisco
autonomous AP's or other vendor products?  I'm collecting this material
for a SANS webcast on Monday.

Thanks,
