SAE support

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I see in:

http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=130145440930760&w=2

That SAE support is in for mesh networking. SAE is so defined that it can be used for STA authentication to an AP or in AdHoc mode. It is NOT limited to mesh node authentication. This was extensively discussed at the 802.11 meetings as a reason that specific support of SAE by STAs did not need to be defined; it was already in there.

so......

if an AP is advertising SAE in an IE in the BEACON, what will it take for the STA to respond? Does this patch provide the necessary functionality? See sec 8.2a in IEEE 802.11s-2011.

Thank you.
