Abstract
Apparatus, and associated method, for facilitating transition, or other communication hand-off, between access points of a wireless local area network. When an old access point is notified of selection to transition communications, the old access point generates a transition request message that is communicated by way of a network to the new access point. The transition request includes a temporary key. And, the old access point notifies the mobile station of the temporary key. The mobile station re-associates with the new access point, and the temporary key is used pursuant to initial communications between the mobile station and the new access point.
