A system and method to manage the pre-authentication service by providing a network-centric, managed list of neighboring/logical access points from which a wireless station should pre-authenticate. An access point is provided with a pre-authentication table. When a wireless station associates with the access point, the access point transmits the pre-authentication table to the client. The client responsive to receiving the table only pre-authenticates with neighboring access points on the table.
