Wi-Fi network roaming with 802.11k, 802.11r, and 802.11v on iOS, iPadOS, and macOS

  Learn how iOS, iPadOS, and macOS improve client roaming using Wi-Fi network standards. iOS, iPadOS, and macOS support optimized client roaming on enterprise Wi-Fi networks. The 802.11 Working Group standards k, r, and v let clients roam more seamlessly from access point (AP) to AP within the same network. 802.11k The 802.11k standard helps devices search quickly for nearby APs that are available as roaming targets by creating an optimized list of channels. When the signal strength of the current AP weakens, your device will scan for target APs from this list. 802.11r When your device roams from one AP to another on the same network, 802.11r uses a feature called Fast Basic Service Set Transition (FT) to authenticate more quickly. FT works with both preshared key (PSK) and 802.1X authentication methods. iOS 10 and later, iPadOS, and macOS 12 include support for adaptive 802.11r on Cisco wireless networks. Adaptive 802.11r offers FT without the need to enable 802.11r on the configured
