Re: [STDS-802-11-TGBT] Request for Strawpoll in TGbt PM1 (July 13th)

Dan/all,

 

I see these as two separate questions:

  • Should TGbt ask that 802.11WG  allocate an Element ID and work on a general solution to allow elements that are > 255 octets?  (I’ll note that this work might be done in TGbt, only because we are already a ways down this path, or it could be done in REVmf so it is clearly a generalized solution for use in/by many amendments in the future (P802.11bt included).)
  • What should P802.11bt use for our near-term need for large data objects in our signaling (effectively, Dan’s SP below)?  (This could be with it noted that the question above *might* be forthcoming, from some TG.)

  Good idea for a straw poll but can we gauge the feeling of the group with a little wider of a question? How about:

 

  DP: Which option would you support to address the issue of element fragmentation in draft 0.3:

  1. Extended-Length elements (11-26/1265r2)
  1. Use of fields instead of elements (11-26/1163r4)
  1. Nothing, keep element fragmentation for PQC 802.1X 

 

  Regards,

 

  Dan.

Hi Stephen,

 

I would like to request this straw poll in the TGbt PM1 session, to ask the group for its opinion on he following.

 

SP Text:

Do you support requesting the Working Group to allocate one of the values currently marked as reserved in Table 9-164 for use as the Element ID that identifies an Extended-Length Element?

 

thanks

Anirban
