Apart, perhaps, from some management frames the station might send outside the BSS, but that's not likely to matter much? IOW, why not specify all frames, and let this make some sense for other interface modes? johannes -- 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
