Hi Jouni, It is called the QBSS Load element in 802.11e-2005 and is called the BSS Load element in 802.11-2012. Calling it QBSS Load in the documentation more clearly distinguishes that by spec this is for a QBSS only, that is, where WMM is enabled only. 802.11e-2005 and 802.11-2012 specify that this element must only be present for a QOS-enhanced BSS. >From 802.11e-2005: 22 QBSS Load The QBSS Load information element is only present within Beacon frames generated by QAPs. The QBSS Load element is present when dot11QosOptionImplemented and dot11QBSSLoadImplemented are both true. 23 EDCA Parameter Set The EDCA Parameter Set information element is only present within Beacon frames generated by QAPs. The EDCA Parameter Set element is present when dot11QosOptionImplemented is true and the QoS Capability element is not present. 24 QoS Capability The QoS Capability information element is only present within Beacon frames generated by QAPs. The QoS Capability element is present when dot11QosOptionImplemented is true and EDCA Parameter Set element is not present.
