  • CONTINUING A MEDIA ACCESS CONTROL SECURITY (MACSEC) KEY AGREEMENT (MKA) SESSION UPON A NETWORK DEVICE BECOMING TEMPORARILY UNAVAILABLE
    Publication number: 20230308445
    Abstract: A network device may communicate with another network device via a media access control security (MACsec) key agreement (MKA) communication link, wherein an MKA session has been established between the network device and the other network device. The network device may determine that the other network device is unavailable. The network device may cause, based on determining that the other network device is unavailable, an MKA state of the network device to be placed in a paused state. The network device may receive, after causing the MKA state of the network device to be placed in the paused state, a packet from the other network device via the MKA communication link. The network device may determine, based on the packet, that the MKA session has not ended. The network device may continue, based on the MKA session having not ended, the MKA session by reactivating the MKA state.
