Scanning Report" - Propose to Defer |

All,
Issue 148 is listed below:
As scanning is part of MAC protocol should there be a TLV to send that report from WTP to AC? Because for RF solutions WTP need to perform scanning and analyze that data. Currently for these solutions vendors have proprietary
algorithms. Should the data collection part be standardized? (The data interpretation can remain vendor specific). This will help in achieving greater interoperability, as AC can collect data and statistics from different vendor's WTPs but the algorithms and solution to
analyze them can still remain proprietary
In this regard should CAPWAP provide the binding for sending scanning report/statistics from WTP to AC?
Proposed resolution: Add to the "Wish" category, and defer to a future version of the
CAPWAP IEEE 802.11 binding document. Reports of Scan results are being
incorporated in the IEEE 802.11k Beacon report, which is in the
process of being standardized.
Comments welcome,
Thanks,
Dorothy
