Re: [STDS-802-11-TGAK] GLK Capabilities Element ID



Hmm.  Can you remind me what the "rules" are, that suggest when a (non Extension) ID is appropriate?  Since this parameter will be in every Beacon for any AP which supports GLK (even if mixed mode), this seems like a good candidate for the non-extension form.  But, perhaps I'm not thinking of the rules correctly.

Subject: [STDS-802-11-TGAK] GLK Capabilities Element ID

The P802.11ak draft current specifies use of an Element ID for the GLK Capabilities element but uses an Element ID Extension for the GLK-GCR Parameter Set element. Using an Element ID requires approval by the
802.11 WG which has been controversial in the past for some attempts to get approval.

The MDR review of P802.11ak_Draft D3.0 recommends going to the Extension form for both of these, which can just be allocated by the ANA and does not require WG approval. Overall, I think this is a good idea and will put a motion to make this change on the TGak first session agenda in Vancouver.

Thanks,
Donald
