IEEE P802.11 Wireless LANs Proposed resolution for lb193mc CID 78, 309, and 310 2013-07-11 Date: Author(s): Name Company Address Phone email Broadcom 190 Mathilda Place, Qi Wang +1-408-922-8798 Corporation Sunnyvale, CA 94086 Matthew Broadcom 190 Mathilda Place, +1-408-543-3370 Fischer Corporation Sunnyvale, CA 94086 Introduction This submission contains a proposal to enable frame classification based on the MAC header content, which is a proposed resolution for CID-78, 309 and 310 from LB193mc. The proposed modifications are in reference to the text in IEEE P802.11REVmc/D1.5 [1] and are indicated by the change marks as follows: 3.1 Definitions traffic classification (TCLAS): The specification of certain parameter values to identify the medium access control (MAC) data units (MDUs). The classification process, performed at a quality-of-service (QoS) access point (AP), uses the parameter values to examine each MDU and determine whether th MDU . TCLAS might also occur at (non-AP) QoS station (STA). NOTE—However, classification is beyond the scope of this standard. traffic filter: A set of traffic specifications defined by the use of traffic classification (TCLAS) elements that are utilized by the traffic filtering service (TFS) to identify specific allowed frames. 8.4.2.33 TCLAS element The TCLAS element specifies an element that contains a set of parameters necessary to identify incoming MSDUs (from a higher layer in all STAs or from the DS in an AP) that belong to a particular TS. The TCLAS element is also used when the traffic does not belong to a TS, for example, by the FMS, DMS, and TFS services. If required, the TCLAS element is provided in ADDTS Request and ADDTS Response frames only for the downlink or
