Abstract
A network device includes a first physical layer (PHY) module, a second physical layer (PHY) module, and a security module. The first PHY module is configured to operate in a first frequency band. The second PHY module is configured to operate in a second frequency band. The security module is configured to establish security for the first frequency band responsive to the network device operating in the first frequency band. The security module is further configured to establish security for the second frequency band prior to the network device switching operation from the first frequency band to the second frequency band.
