Submission doc.: IEEE 11-12/1447r1 December 2012 Donald Eastlake, Huawei TechnologiesSlide 2 Abstract I believe the the General Link problem can be divided into three relatively independent sub-problems. Various combinations of the solutions to these sub- problems can be considered.

Submission doc.: IEEE 11-12/1447r1December 2012 Donald Eastlake, Huawei TechnologiesSlide 4 Divide and Conquer Locus of Control in an Infrastructure BSS Distributed among all STAs Mostly at the AP Reporting to Rest of Network – What does it look like? Set of point-to-point links A virtual bridge (irtual link – no support?) Addressing Formats and the Reflection Problem 4 Address format n aggregated frames vPort solution (Other ?)
