The application for the patent was published on August 14, 2026, under issue no. 33/2026.
Abstract: The present disclosure describes a hierarchical seamless roaming technique. A wireless network includes a first access point device and a second access point device. The first access point device and the second access point device are assigned to a first seamless mobility domain (SMD) and a fast basic service set transition mobility domain (FT MD). The first access point device receives, from a client device, an association request that identifies the FT MD and the first SMD and establishes a first pairwise master key R1 (PMK-R1 ). The first access point device also generates a first pairwise transient key for the client device, and the second access point device establishes, based on the association request identifying the first SMD and the FT MD and based on the second access point device being assigned to the first SMD and the FT MD, a second PMK-R1.
