In this paper, we utilize the potential offered by multidimensional separable states (MSS) for secure and simultaneous distributions of keys in a layered network. We present protocols for both quantum and semi-quantum key distribution and discuss their robustness against various eavesdropping strategies. We provide a procedure to identify the requisite resource states to generalise these protocols for arbitrary layered networks. Finally, we study the interrelation between the local dimensionalities of states and achievable key rates in a given layer. These proposals are realisable with current technology, thanks to employment of MSS and many advances in generation, manipulation and measurement of higher-dimensional orbital angular momentum states of light.
