As far as WMM element is concerned, I'd note that IEEE 802.11 standard does not list EDCA Parameter Set element as one of the items that has to be same for all the BSSs in a multiple BSSID set and as such, I'd consider it to be allowed behavior for an AP to advertise different WMM parameters for different nontransmitted BSSIDs. As far as other vendor specific elements are concerned, there could certainly be use cases for using different values for WPA element, Hotspot 2.0 element, MBO/OCE element. -- Jouni Malinen PGP id EFC895FA
