IEEE P802.11 Wireless LANs MLME-AUTHENTICATE text proposal for TGai Date: 2015-07-05 Author(s): Name Company Address Phone Mark 350 W. Java Drive +1 303 Ruckus Wireless Hamilton Sunnyvale, CA 94089 818 8472 CID 6155 8026 21.32 6.3.5.5 CID 7144 (on the last ballot) Add a clause that modifies the was apparently too confusing. MLME-AUTHENTICATE.indication The intent of the comment was: primitive, to add the The MLME-AUTHENTICATE FLISWrappedData and PMKIDListt service to have changes to parameters. the .indication primitive. There are new parameters in the (and carried in the Authenticate frames): FILSWrappedData and PMKIDList. So, the primitive needs to be modified by 11ai to add these parameters in the indication to the AP's SME, to complete the transfer of the information to the AP, at Authentication request. Discussion: TGai modifies the MLME-AUTHENTICATE.request primitive, to add two new parameters: FILSWrappedData and PMKIDList. Per Table 8-36, the elements derived from these parameters are carried in the Authentication frame with transaction sequence number 1, which is transmitted by the Authentication requester. Finally, 11.11.2.3 discusses how the receiving AP processes and uses the FILS Wrapped Data and the PMKID List that are received in the Authentication frame. Thus, these parameters need to be provided in the MLME-AUTHENTICATE.indication at the AP. Proposed changes: Insert the following subclause changes, after 6.3.5.3: 6.3.5.4 MLME-AUTHENTICATE.indication 6.3.5.4.2 Semantics of the service primitive Change the primitive parameter list and insert new rows (ignoring the header row) in the associated table
