A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.

This document provides a taxonomy of the architectures employed in
the existing 802.11 products in the market, by analyzing WLAN
(Wireless LAN) functions and services and describing the different
variants in distributing these functions and services among the
architectural entities, esp. between the access points and access
controller. This taxonomy will be utilized by the 802.11 Working
Group as input to their task of defining the functional architecture
of an access point.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
