WPA Algorithm The encryption method is AES.
Key Renewal Timeout Specify the value of Group Key Renewal. It is a value

WPA automatically changes secret keys after a
certain period of time. The group key interval
is the period of time in between automatic
changes of the group key, which all devices on
the network share.
Constantly keying the group key protects your
network against intrusion, as the would-be intruder
must cope with an ever-changing secret key.
