Hello Kalyan,

Thanx for this figure.

Yes..the Information Service part of the doc basically tries to describe Media Independent Neighbor Reports which you have tried to highlight below.

1] Basically you may have several different access networks in any given area. You need to be able to enumerate them.

2] After that you need to enumerate the respective PoAs (APs/BSs/ etc.) for the access network that a user may be interested in a region.

3] You may also need general characteristics of the access network itself and thereafter more specific capabilities/properties of individual PoA

for a specific access network that you may want to connect to.

4] You could retrieve this information over any radio/network ..from 802.21 information server.

So if you could extend the below figure to show another AN with different PoAs, you would highlight the more generic scenario quite aptly.

Best Regards

-Vivek

Hi Vivek,

Please find attached an updated document on L2 requirements that we can go through today.

Also 802.21 and TGu have planned joint sessions in November meeting.

With that in mind, agenda for today's telecon is as follows:

1] Goals for joint session in Nov and questions that we may want to answer/discuss in joint session:

2] Process for getting amendments done through TGu

3] Information service and review key goals:

    - What information is on 802.21 information server?

    - What kind of changes may be required in access networks?

    - Do we really need 802.21 information service supported over L2 for 802.11?

4] What are possible locations for MIH in 802.11 network?

5] Anything else?

Best Regards

-Vivek
