Hi Arik, some of your comments are not aligned with 802.1 operation and ecosystem. What you see is a baseline formulated by AP and non-AP community. I would hope that you can support this baseline and then separately propose additional
pieces that you see fit. Regards, Payam From:

Hi Arik,
If a non-AP tells AP it doesn’t want a link (from the MLO link set that it set up during association), for any reason, it’s free money (resource) returned to AP with no fight. Non-AP shouldn’t ask for this if it has any intention of using that link again, but if it does, well, it doesn’t want it. Smaller IEs, fewer transmissions, coming with no arbitration.
Please note the concept of “link” applies to non-AP/client. Cases designated as AP-initiated are in the form of request to non-AP to add/remove its link. On the AP MLD side, it can add and remove AP STAs serving the whole network. With that said,
[Arik Klein] I think that from system-wise perspective, such a “claim” that the non-AP STA is entitled to reject the AP MLD request to remove a link just because this resource has already been allocated for it is inefficient. I think the AP MLD has much broader perspective for the needs of all non-AP MLDs (due to dynamic changes in the traffic / network conditions), thus its request to remove a link with a specific non-AP MLD shall no be rejected (at least as long as we requires the AP MLD not to reject similar request from the non-AP MLD)
[Arik Klein] Agree with your point, but why shouldn’t it be “reciprocal” i.e. the non-AP MLD shall have courtesy indication for the time that the link will be
removed (as an option)?
Regards, Payam

Arik Klein <arik.klein@xxxxxxxxxx> Hi Payam,
Thanks for sharing the presentation.
I have questions regarding proposed SP1 and SP3
In the proposed Straw Poll 1, when the non-AP MLD requests the associated AP MLD to remove a link – the AP MLD can’t reject this request.
On the contrary, in proposed Straw Poll 3, when the AP MLD requests the associated non-AP MLD to remove a link you propose either of 2 options:
My questions are:
Thanks for the swift reply.

Hello all, we will likely have time in our next MAC call to run straw polls for the ML reconfiguration topic I presented today. It would be nice if you could share your comments and questions here.
