Application-specific command management Sample Clauses

Application-specific command management. The MAC sublayer provides application-specific command frames for sending control information for the MAC client. At the sending device, command data is passed via the primitives in this subclause, along with the parameters describing the attributes of the command, to the MAC entity for transfer to a peer MAC entity for unicast traffic or a group of MAC entities for multicast or broadcast traffic. At the recipient device, the MAC entity delivers received application-specific command data to the MAC client. Application-specific commands may be fragmented for transfer between peer MAC entities. Application-specific commands may be transmitted using PCA or within DRP reservations. MLME-AS-COMMAND 6.2.19.1 6.2.19.2 6.2.19.3 Table 43 lists the parameters that appear in the MLME-AS-COMMAND primitives defined in this subclause. DestEUI EUI-48 Any valid EUI-48 Specifies the EUI-48 of the recipient device of the MCDU SrcEUI EUI-48 Any valid unicast EUI-48 Specifies the EUI-48 of the sending device of the MCDU TKID Integer Any valid TKID as defined in 7.2.6.1, or zero Specifies a PTK or GTK used for protecting the MCDU. If zero, indicates no security protection for this MCDU. ACKPolicy Enumeration ACK, NO_ACK Specifies whether or not the MCDU requires acknowledgement TxTimeout Duration 0–65535 Specifies the amount of time in milliseconds in which the MCDU needs to be successfully sent ASCommandData Array Variable Specifies the contents of the application-specific command frame
