Re: [STDS-802-11-TGBE] CID 13162 - SAE Entity definition

[Stephen McCann <mccann.stephen@xxxxxxxxx>]

Mike,

         I'm happy with this addition, although the definition could also be shortened to:

"simultaneous authentication of equals (SAE) entity: an entity that is a station (STA) or a multi-link device (MLD) that participates in SAE authentication (see 12.4 (Authentication using a password))."

Kind regards

Stephen

Hello all, 

During the discussion of https://mentor.ieee.org/802.11/dcn/22/11-22-1178-03-00be-tgbe-lb266-security-comment-resolutions.docx, we did not reach a conclusion of CID 13162.  I'd like to initiate a discussion on the reflector to see if there is consensus on a resolution to this CID.

(13162) REVISED. Change the definition at 53.63 to "simultaneous authentication of equals (SAE) entity: an entity that is a station (STA), non-AP STA, AP, mesh STA, or a multi-link device (MLD) that participates in SAE authentication (see 12.4 (Authentication using a password))."

I would like to note that the commenter brought up mesh STAs uses SAE and requested that mesh be incorporated into the definition.

Cheers,

Mike
