ABSTRACT:
A system and method to enable an access point to dynamically provision a WLAN client with a new wireless profile once an association is established based on the infrastructure policy. A client can be directed to use a new profile without the need for pre-configuration and going through another authentication process. The new wireless profile can be provided to the client either during or after association, with or without the protection of link layer security key.
