Transient Client Management

The Transient Client Management feature allows only those clients that stay within the AP's coverage region for a minimum period of time to associate with the AP and use the service. For example, in a train station or downtown area there may be passer by who do not intend to connect and utilize the network service. However, their wi-fi devices may do an active/passive scanning and could be roaming either from cellular to Wi-Fi or from one Wi-Fi AP to another Wi-Fi AP or from Wi-Fi to cellular, which could compromise the experience of users who are connected and using the service. First-time client association could cause a delay.
