Hi Thomas, 
 
This would apply only to the frames that carry Basic ML IE carrying a profile of a reported STA. In other words, it applies to the content of the Per-STA Profile subelement carried within the Basic ML IE contained in a Beacon, Probe Req/Resp, (Re)Assoc Req/Resp
 or Authentication frames.

What is the scope of this list? I think there’s a large number of elements in 9.4.2 that related to MLD-level features - do we need to include all of them in this list or only elements that are carried in certain frames? 
 
For the example in the CID below, MSCS Descriptor is either carried in (MSCS) action frames or in (Re)Association requests. On the other hand, SCS Descriptor is only carried in (SCS) action frames. 
 
  
Hi All, 
During today’s TGbe MAC ad-hoc (AM2 session), I deferred CID 18240 so that the group could discuss and add any other missing elements that cannot be carried within a Per STA Profile
 of a reported STA. This email is to solicit the group’s inputs on the topic. Could you please let me know if there are additional elements that you believe need to be listed in clause 35.3.3.4?

 MSCS descriptor element should not be included in Per-STA profile subelement b/c (1) it is a MLD level feature. (2) the value should be the
 same for all links so by inheritance it would not appear in per-STA profile 
 | 
 add MSCS descriptor element to the list of elements not included in the per-STA profile 
 
All STAs affliated with a MLD shall set Mirrored SCS in Extended Capabilities element to the same value

FYI, we can include any missing elements as a resolution to CID 18240.

Abhi
