The IESG has approved the following document: - 'CAPWAP Protocol Binding for IEEE 802.11 ' <draft-ietf-capwap-protocol-binding-ieee80211-12.txt> as a Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Control And Provisioning of Wireless Access Points Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Dan Romascanu and Ron Bonica. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-capwap-protocol-binding-ieee80211-12.txt Technical Summary The Control And Provisioning of Wireless Access Points (CAPWAP) Protocol defines an extensible protocol to allow an Access Controller to manage wireless agnostic Wireless Termination Points. The CAPWAP protocol itself does not include any specific wireless technologies, but instead relies on binding specification to extend the technology to a particular wireless technology. This specification defines the Control And Provisioning of Wireless Access Points (CAPWAP) Protocol Binding Specification for use with the IEEE 802.11 Wireless Local Area Network protocol. Working Group Summary This document has gone throught several review and internal WG discussion. This document has solid consensus and agreement by the WG.
