dot11RSNAConfigEntry is not ANA managed. The chance of collision (between task groups) is low and the consequences of collision are not terrible (I’m not aware of anybody actually implementing the MIB).

Subject: ANA request and some questions

Hello Robert, - Happy New Year!

I would like to submit the following ANA requests:

Type of Request	Resource Name	Item Name	Item Description	Requested Value (if any)	Requested by Task Group	Requested by Name
Allocate	Element ID Extension 1	Non-AP STA Regulatory Connectivity			TGme	Emily Qi
Allocate	dot11StationConfigEntry	dot11ExtendedRegInfoSupport			TGme	Emily Qi

Is dot11RSNAConfigEntry managed by ANA? I couldn’t find it in the Resource Name. Should it be managed by ANA?

If it is managed by ANA, I would like to request values for the following items:

dot11RSNAConfigGroupManagementCipher
dot11RSNAConfigGroupManagementCipherSize
dot11RSNAGroupManagementCipherSelected
dot11RSNAGroupManagementCipherRequested

thanks,

Emily
