A station's 802.11 state changes
from Associated to
Unauthenticated.
A state change from associated
to unauthenticated can happen
because:
 Station ages out. The default
aging out period is 30 minutes.
The aging out period of 802.11
associated stations is different
from the aging out period of an
assigned stations.
 Station voluntarily leaves a
currently associated BSSID by
sending a 802.11
deauthentication frame.
 Station moves from BSSIDOLD
to BSSIDNEW. The associated
state of BSSIDOLD is
automatically cleared up.
 In the multi-controller
environment, a station moves
from ControllerOLD to
ControllerNEW and the two
controllers are in the same
subnet; the associated state of
the station in ControllerOLD is
automatically cleared up.
 1x/WPA/WPA2 authentication
fails due to either Radius
reject, a message timeout, or
an unknown reason.
 A key exchange fails due to
timeout or MIC failure.
