    Abstract: An access point of a network configured to derive basic service set identifiers (BSSIDs). The access point determines a base media access control (MAC) address associated with an access point. The access point computes an offset for at least one radio of the access point. The access point determines a radio-specific MAC address for the at least one radio of the access point by incrementing the base MAC address by the offset. The access point then derives a plurality of BSSIDs for the at least one radio of the access point based on the radio-specific MAC address. In some cases, the access point determines a radio from which a BSSID is provided based on the BSSID.

    Abstract: Examples described herein provide wake-up of a network device. Examples include receiving, by a network interface of a first network device having a first Media Access Control (MAC) address, a request to wake-up a second network device having a second MAC address that is assigned to a same subnet as the first MAC address, and in response to the request, generating, by the first network device, a first wake-up frame having a destination address of the second MAC address and configured to cause the second network device to transition from operating in the first power mode to operating in the second power mode. Examples include transmitting, by the network interface of the first network device, the first wake-up frame to the second MAC address of the second network device.

    Abstract: Examples of block acknowledgement negotiations are described. In an example, a request to establish a BA session is sent by a first computing device (first device) to a second computing device (second device). A timer for receipt of a response to the request is initialized. A BA successful response is received by the first device after the timer has timed out. A request to terminate the BA session is sent by the first device to the second device. After sending the request to terminate the BA session, BA negotiation is reinitiated by the first device based on an updated inactivity timer, so that there are greater chances of successfully establishing a BA session. In an example, if the second device ignores the request to terminate the BA session then it sends a BA reject response to the first device. After receiving the BA reject response, the first device waits for the inactivity timer before reinitiating BA negotiations, so that the second device clears its states thereby increasing chances of successful BA renegotiations.

    Abstract: Dynamic configuration of multiple radios of an access point is described. An example of an access point includes a processor; a memory; hardware filters; and a first set of radio chains and antennas, the access point including a first radio mode for operation as a single radio on a first channel to service a first BSS and a second radio mode for operation as a first radio on the first channel and a second radio on a second channel to perform an additional service, wherein the access point is to provide dynamic configuration of the radios including, upon determining that operation of the first channel to service the first BSS is not compatible with a particular hardware filter of the first radio, migrating the first BSS from the first radio to the second radio to service on the second channel, and providing the additional service on the first channel.
