摘要:
This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to beacon protection rekeying and attack detection. A device may set a first beacon integrity group transient key (BIGTK). The device may generate a first frame including a first indication of a second BIGTK to be used for a first integrity analysis of the first frame, a second indication of the first BIGTK, and a third indication that the first BIGTK is to be used for a second integrity analysis of a second frame to be sent after the first frame. The device may send the first frame, and may generate the second frame, the second frame including an indication that the first BIGTK is to be used for the second integrity analysis of the second frame. The device may send the second frame.

This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to synched group key rekeying. A device may determine a first security key used for group-addressed management frames. The device may perform a security key rekeying to use a second security key in place of the first security key. The device may cause to send the second security key to a first station device of one or more station devices. The device may cause to send a first beacon frame comprising a switch announcement information element (IE) associated with the second security key. The device may cause to send a second beacon frame, wherein the second beacon frame does not comprise the switch announcement IE. The device may determine to switch to the second security key based on the switch announcement IE.

This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to using protected beacon frames in wireless communications. A device may determine a beacon management element of a beacon frame body and may determine an integrity group key identifier of the beacon management element, wherein the integrity group key identifier is associated with a basic service set (BSS). The device may determine, based on the integrity group key identifier, a management integrity check (MIC) field of the beacon management element. The device may generate a beacon frame including the beacon frame body. The device may send the beacon frame.
摘要:
Device, system and method of multicast/broadcast communication. For example, an apparatus in accordance with an embodiment of the invention includes a transmitter to transmit, in response to an incoming multicast communication frame received from a multicast communication source, a multicast acknowledgment frame indicating receipt of the incoming multicast communication frame.
摘要:
Various embodiments of the invention pertain to a wireless communications device to receive multicast transmissions, and to transmit diagnostic information regarding those multicast communications in response to a triggering event. Other embodiments pertain to another wireless communications device to transmit the multicast transmissions, request the diagnostic information, and receive that information.
摘要:
In some embodiments, a secure authenticated remote boot of computing device over a wireless network is performed in a pre-boot execution environment (PXE) using active management technology (AMT) for remote discovery. In these embodiments, a management engine (ME) may maintain full control of a wireless interface and a wireless connection as booting begins. The ME may relinquish control of the wireless interface after a PXE timeout, in response to a shutdown command, or once the device has booted. The ME controls the use of an operating system received from a remote location.
摘要:
An access point and a method to discover an associated station in a wireless network is presented. The access point scans the wireless network in order to discover one or more associated stations and establishes a connection with the discovered station.
摘要:
Embodiments of twin media access control apparatus and methods are generally described herein. Other embodiments may be described and claimed. The present arrangement provides for eliminating a functional media access control unit from one or more processors in a processor/co-processor(s) situation. A dual media access control interface of the processor handles both the network requests of the processor and all co-processors, such as proactive management processors.
摘要:
Some demonstrative embodiments include apparatuses, systems and/or methods of selecting a wireless communication channel to communicate in a wireless communication network. For example, an apparatus may include a channel selector to select at a network controller of a first wireless communication network a first wireless communication channel to communicate between the network controller and one or more wireless communication devices, to detect on the first wireless communication channel a frame from a second wireless communication network, and based on a medium access control (MAC) address of the frame, to select between remaining on the first wireless communication channel and selecting a second wireless communication channel to communicate between the network controller and the one or more wireless communication devices.
摘要:
This disclosure describes systems, methods, and computer-readable media related to adaptive device transmission power to reduce interference. In some embodiments, a device may establish a peer-to-peer connection with a second user device. The device may receive information from an access point and may generate or determine additional information. Using the received, generated, and/or determined information, the device may determine to reduce its transmission power and may facilitate the reduction of transmission power for associated devices.
