RE: 802.21 Teleconference: L2 Requirements for 802.11



Hi Vivek,
 
Thanks a lot for the document. Sorry I could not make for the teleconf yesterday, but I got a few questions (sorry if they are already clarified during teleconf)
 
1) In Table 1, what is the use case for event 9 to 11? What is the defintion of Handoff? Is this a lower layer thing or application layer thing?
 
2) Regarding table 2, in the column of "MIHF<>MIHF", are those indicating bi-directional relationship or unidirectional? E.g. when it is "Client<>Network PoA", does it mean "From Client to Network PoA", or "between Client and Network PoA"?
 
3) The table 3, are these intend to be the payload to be carried by the 11 protocol, or are they the IEs to be defined in 11? 
 
4) In table 3, item 2, why the 11 network needs to indicate support of other type of networks,e.g. 16 and GSM, etc. And, is the intension to have all the network types in the same namespace instead of subgroups, e.g. 11-subtypes, 16-subtypes, cellular-subtypes...etc?
 
5) In table 3, item 6, what does this mean? Is this the location of the PoA or the Terminal? In 11, if this is the terminal location, it may mean a different requirement on the 11 specification, ie. to provide meansurement capability for an accurate terminal location.
 
6) Table 3, item 7, can this support both IP versions?
 
7) Table 3, item 9, for a 11 network, probably the most important type is "Generic IP Service". Also, not sure about how the "supported" means, e.g. "VPN" has many types..
 
cheers
