Another minor technical issue/question:
In 12.2.12.1, we have the short lists of “When using PASN authentication, …”, “When using FILS authentication, …” and “When not using PASN or FILS authentication, …” With the latest changes, we have remove “When using PASN authentication, …”
Comments:
- The last bullet in the list (“when not using PASN or FILS authentication”) seems odd, because we never mentioned PASN authentication above this in the lists. Why isn’t this just “When not using FILS authentication” at this point? (Since this is talking about messages 2 and 3 of the 4-way, this clearly has nothing to do with PASN authentication, and that doesn’t need to be said.)
- The new paragraph that (outside of the lists) says when to provide a PASN ID doesn’t say anything about “when device ID is configured” anymore, as a result. So, can PASN ID operate when device ID is not being used (is “not configured”)? Doesn’t that break some of our frame/MLME/etc. behavior assumptions, that these two items (almost) always go together?

Subject: [STDS-802-11-TGBH] a minor technical issue in PASN ID contribution
Hi Graham and other members,
I'v uploaded 789r8 based on the discussion of the last meeting. Basically most are related to the editorial changes and to keep consistent with CR for CID 3122 about the length of device ID status(0 or 1).
The only technical issue is as following(i.e., use 'may' or 'shall' ):
Basically i'm not sure which one should be used, so in the previous revision i just used the word 'may'(my intention is that we can have more discussion if anyone has different idea about this). However, Graham points out it should be 'shall' and i totally agree with it.
I also want to see if other members have different opinion on this.
Additionally, cloud you please check the new revision to see if it's good for you, Graham ?🙂
Best Regards！
