Re: [STDS-802-11] Updated version of RFC4441bis is available; plan to discuss in ARC on Weds

--- This message came from the IEEE 802.11 Working Group Reflector ---

Hi Dorothy:

One area IETF currently targets, measures against pervasive monitoring, could greatly benefit from 802.11 - the primary mechanism for wireless internet access - taking measures to try and prevent traceability of devices at the MAC level (otherwise, whatever protocol). This would call for investigating potential use of ephemeral addresses in MPDUs, rather than using static addresses.

Do you know whether the impact of potentially facilitating this has been studied carefully in 802.11? Would consideration for this be a suitable addition to the HEW PAR & 5C?

Best regards, Rene

All,

I expect that we will review this document in ARC on Wednesday AM1.
