Definitions, acronyms, and abbreviations 3.2 Definitions specific to IEEE Std 802.11 Instructions to the Editor: Add the following definitions to alphabetical order of the definitions list. ActiveScanningTimer A timer to measure the time to receive Probe Response, Beacon, FILS Discovery or Measurement Pilot frames in order to discover suitable AP for association. CID5002 FILSProbeTimer A timer used by a FILS STA to measure time to receive Probe Request, Probe Response, Beacon, FILS discovery and Measurement Pilot frames in order to skip the transmission of Probe Request frame.

This parameter is optionally present is dot11FILSActivated is true.CID5181. Do not adopt 6.3.3.3 MLME-SCAN.confirm 6.3.3.3.1 Function Change the first paragraph as follows: This primitive returns the descriptions of the set of BSSs detected by the scan process. Multiple MLMESCAN. Confirm primitives can may be [CID4112] issued when value of the ReportingOption parameter in the is the MLME-SCAN.request has ReportingOption parameter set to [CID4112] CHANNEL_SPECIFIC or to IMMEDIATE AT_END. When ReportingOption parameter is set to AT_END a single MLMESCAN.Confirm primitive may be is [CID4112] issued.

Known OUIs A set of elements As defined in 8.4.2.28 Zero or more elements that Specify the OUIs and their values known by the AP. [CID5194] VendorSpecificInfo A set of elements As defined in 8.4.2.28 Zero or more elements. 8.3.3.9 Probe Request frame format Instructions to the editor: Modify as shown. Order Information Notes 2019CID4694 AP-CSN The AP-CSN element is optionally present if dot11FILSActivated is true. 8.3.3.10 Probe Response frame format Instructions to the editor: Modify as shown. Order Information Notes Last–n Requested elements Elements requested by the Request element (8.4.2.10) CID4982 of the Probe Request frame are present if dot11MultiDomainCapabilityActivated is true. See 10.1.4.3.4 (Sending a response to probe request). See 10.1.4.3.2 (Active scanning procedure for a non-DMG STA). Added erroneously by mc3.0. 8.4.2.1 General Instructions to the editor: Modify as shown. CID4539: Delete all “see” words from Element column, (the column needs to have just the element reference). The deletion is shown for the below listed elements. CID4002: Delete the length column.
