CID 183 Comment:
(p165.20)
"peer-to-peer link: A direct link within a quality-of-service (QoS) basic service set (BSS), a tunneled direct-
link setup (TDLS) link, or a station-to-station (STA-to-STA) communication in an independent basic
service set (IBSS)." is broken since there are no direct links other than TDLS and IBSS ones
CID 183 Proposed Change:
"peer-to-peer link: A direct link within a quality-of-service (QoS) basic service set (BSS), a tunneled direct-
link setup (TDLS) link, or a station-to-station (STA-to-STA) communication in an independent basic
service set (IBSS)." is broken since there are no direct links other than TDLS and IBSS ones
CID 183 AdHoc Notes:
GEN: 2021-05-13 13:11:44Z - status set to: Review
Similar to CID 563, 183 and 184
Proposed Resolution: Revised; Change peer to peer link definition:
Option 1:
peer-to-peer link: A tunneled direct-link setup (TDLS) link, or a station-to-station (STA-to-STA) communication in a directional multi-gigabit (DMG) basic service set (BSS) or independent basic service set (IBSS).
Option2:
peer-to-peer link: A station-to-station (STA-to-STA) link between tunneled direct-
link setup (TDLS) peer STAs in an infrastructure basic service set (BSS) or between STAs in an independent basic service set (IBSS).
CID 184 Comment: (p165.20)
"peer-to-peer link: A direct link within a quality-of-service (QoS) basic service set (BSS), a tunneled direct-
link setup (TDLS) link, or a station-to-station (STA-to-STA) communication in an independent basic
service set (IBSS)." is broken since it mixes "link" with "communication"
CID 184 Proposed Change:
Change to "peer-to-peer link: A station-to-station (STA-to-STA) link between tunneled direct-
link setup (TDLS) peer STAs in an infrastructure basic service set (BSS) or between STAs in an independent basic service set (IBSS)."
CID 563 Comment (p165.21)
We already have the following definition for "direct link": "A bidirectional link from one quality-of-service (QoS) station (STA) to another QoS STA operating in the same infrastructure QoS basic service set (BSS) that does not pass through a QoS access point (AP)..." and DLS has been removed in 802.11-2020. We can drop "direct link" from the peer-to-peer definition.
CID 5653 Proposed Change
Change peer-to-peer link definition to: "Peer-to-peer link: A tunneled direct-link setup (TDLS) link, or a station-to-station (STA-to-STA) communication in a directional multi-gigabit (DMG) basic service set (BSS) or independent basic service set (IBSS).
