Re: 802.21 Teleconference: L2 Requirements for 802.11



Vivek, thanks your good initiative and here is my suggested amendment.

802.11u decided its in-scope requirements during last meeting and one 
requirement was away from them.

==========================
From 11-05-0279-15-000u

- Reference: REQ d15M2
- Requirement:
Define functionality by which APs can provide information which will enable 
a STA to determine whether or not roaming to a candidate AP would require 
re-configuration (automatic or manual) of layer 3 networking.
- Notes (informative):
This could be achieved by the APs advertising either information about the 
L3 routers accessible through them (ARID) or by identifying the ESS to which 
the AP is connected.  However other solutions are not precluded.Note: It is 
recognized that the suggested requirement class is extremely controversial, 
and it is expected that the motion to accept this requirement will be 
subject to a motion to amend.
- Requirement Class: Out of scope-To be forwarded to .21 and 11r
==========================

I am opening this requirement to be included into the 802.21 spec.

All comment is highly welcome.
