GAS/ANQP is pre-association if that makes any difference. Anyway, quite a few new things will start depending on off channel Action frames and everything I'm working on this area will most likely be using r-o-c.. >Maybe we should start advertising where it's supported so wpa_s/hostapd >can disable/enable features appropriately? Yeah, sounds reasonable. I guess you could also reject the r-o-c command, but it is cleaner if this can be determined beforehand. - Jouni -- 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
