Briefly, P2P flow consists of the following phases: 1) scan - just regular scan, to find infrastructure ESS as well 2) find - in this phase, device toggles between states: 2.1) search - similar to scan on social channels, but not exactly. On 60g, search is _NOT_ scan 2.2) listen - similar to ROC on listen channel, but again, on 60g, listen is _NOT_ ROC Then, this follows by GO negotiation etc. Thanks, Vladimir -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
