I agree with your observation. That sems to be the definition of what is
not “within a network”. Otherwise “network” refers to the worldwide Wi-Fi. I shiver when recalling the “What is an ESS?” discussions we had in ARC, but I am pretty sure we did agree on several points (same SSID?)

All, In TGbh (on that reflector) it was just pointed out that REVme subclause 4.5.3.2 makes the following claim:
The three transition types of significance to this standard that describe the mobility of (M12)non-GLK STAs
within a network
are as follows:
…
c) ESS -transition: This type is defined as STA movement from a BSS in one ESS to a BSS in a different ESS . In my personal view, movement from one ESS to a different ESS is not “within a network”, although I will also admit readily that what a “network” is is not clearly defined in 802.11, so this is perhaps debatable.
I would appreciate any clarity TGm (or TGm members) could bring to this, before TGbh gets all wrapped up on an incorrect path. Thanks! Mark To unsubscribe from the STDS-802-11-TGM list, click the following link:
