d. Feedback request - Dan Harkins – CID 587
Having looked at 587…
I don't even understand Table 12-5—Robust management frame selection in an infrastructure BSS:
- What does "No action" mean under "AP action"?
That's basically why I'm asking for time. I want to see if there's some consensus about what the behavior should
be.
- Why is the AP behaviour not the same for all the "The STA shall not
[try to] associate with the AP" cases, specifically "The AP shall
reject associations from the STA with the Status Code
ROBUST_MANAGEMENT_POLICY_VIOLATION"? At least the ones where the AP
isn't advertising an invalid combination!
Well if you can make the case that they should all be the same then I'd like to hear it.
In fact, if you think you know how the CID should be resolved and what the necessary clarification is I'll be
happy to reassign the CID to you. Lemme know.
Well, just thinking aloud, how about:

AP MFPR |

- That table covers 13 combinations, so what about the other 3?
I think these are 0001, 0100, 0101 (all invalid at the AP and/or STA).
This is also true for Table 12-6—Robust management frame selection
in an IBSS
So I agree with the comment that there is a need to
"Clarify since it is a frequent source of confusion"!
Thanks,
Mark
