Hello again Heyyo,

I found this solution. Can you tell me if this helps, please?

To ensure that end devices are forced to reauthenticate and not use cached data, you can manage the PMK-R0 key lifetime and clear sessions as needed. Here's how you can do it:

1. Set the PMK-R0 Key Lifetime:
   - You can configure the PMK-R0 key lifetime using the command: ` config wireless-controller vap set ft-r0-key-lifetime <integer> `
   - This setting determines how long the PMK-R0 key is valid before it expires, forcing reauthentication.
   
   
2. View and Clear Sessions: To view and clear sessions, you can use the FortiSwitchOS commands to manage authorized sessions. Although the context does not provide specific commands for viewing PMK-R0 sessions, you can clear authorized sessions using the following methods:
   Using the GUI:
   - Go to `Switch > Interface > Physical`.
   - Select the ports you want to clear the authorization from.
   - Select `Clear Auth`.
   
   Using the CLI:
   - To clear sessions associated with an interface: ` execute 802-1x clear interface {internal | <port_name>} ` Example: ` execute 802-1x clear interface port3 `
   - To clear sessions associated with a MAC address: ` execute 802-1x clear mac <MAC_address>'.
   
   

These steps will help ensure that devices reauthenticate when reconnecting to the network.
