IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN Standard MODULE III IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN Standard

IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN Standard IEEE 802.11 Architecture and Services Figure illustrates the model developed by the 802.11 working group The smallest building block of a wireless LAN is a basic service set (BSS), which consists of some number of stations executing the same MAC protocol and competing for access to the same shared wireless medium A BSS may be isolated or it may connect to a backbone distribution system (DS) through an access point (AP). The AP functions as a bridge and a relay point.

IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN Standard

IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN Standard In a BSS, client stations do not communicate directly with one another. Rather, if one station in the BSS wants to communicate with another station in the same BSS, the MAC frame is first sent from the originating station to the AP, and then from the AP to the destination station. a MAC frame from a station in the BSS to a remote station is sent from the local station to the AP and then relayed by the AP over the DS on its way to the destination station. The DS can be a switch, a wired network, or a wireless network.

IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN Standard When all the stations in the BSS are mobile stations, with no connection to other BSSs, the BSS is called an independent BSS (IBSS). An IBSS is typically an adhoc network. In an IBSS, the stations all communicate directly, and no AP is involved. An extended service set (ESS) consists of two or more basic service sets interconnected by a distribution system. Figure indicates that an access point (AP) is implemented as part of a station;

IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN Standard the AP is the logic within a station that provides access to the DS by providing DS services in addition to acting as a station. To integrate the IEEE 802.11 architecture with a traditional wired LAN, a portal is used. The portal logic is implemented in a device, such as a bridge or router, that is part of the wired LAN and that is attached to the DS.

IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN Standard IEEE 802.11 Services IEEE 802.11 defines nine services The service provider can be either the station or the distribution system (DS). Station services are implemented in every 802.11 station, including access point (AP) stations. Distribution services are provided between basic service sets (BSSs); Three of the services are used to control IEEE 802.11 LAN access and confidentiality.

IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN Standard Six of the services are used to support delivery of MAC service data units (MSDUs) between stations. The MSDU is the block of data passed down from the MAC user to the MAC layer; Distribution of Messages within a DS The two services involved with the distribution of messages within a DS are distribution and integration

IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN Standard Distribution primary service used by stations to exchange MAC frames when the frame must traverse the DS to get from a station in one BSS to a station in another BSS. For example, suppose a frame is to be sent from station 2 (STA 2) to STA 7 in Figure The frame is sent from STA 2 to STA 1, which is the AP for this BSS. The AP gives the frame to the DS, which has the job of directing the frame to the AP associated with STA 5 in the target BSS. STA 5 receives the frame and forwards it to STA 7.

IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN Standard The integration service enables transfer of data between a station on an IEEE 802.11 LAN and a station on an integrated IEEE 802.x LAN. The term integrated refers to a wired LAN that is physically connected to the DS and whose stations may be logically connected to an IEEE 802.11 LAN via the integration service. Association-Related Services The standard defines three transition types based on mobility:

IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN Standard No transition: A station of this type is either stationary or moves only within the direct communication range of the communicating stations of a single BSS. BSS transition: This is defined as a station movement from one BSS to another BSS within the same ESS. ESS transition: This is defined as a station movement from a BSS in one ESS to a BSS within another ESS.

IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN Standard To deliver a message within a DS, the distribution service needs to know where the destination station is located. Specifically, the DS needs to know the identity of the AP to which the message should be delivered in order for that message to reach the destination station. To meet this requirement, a station must maintain an association with the AP within its current BSS. Three services relate to this requirement:

IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN Standard Association: Establishes an initial association between a station and an AP Before a station can transmit or receive frames on a wireless LAN, its identity and address must be known. For this purpose, a station must establish an association with an AP within a particular BSS. The AP can then communicate this information to other APs within the ESS to facilitate routing and delivery of addressed frames.

IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN Standard Reassociation: Enables an established association to be transferred from one AP to another, allowing a mobile station to move from one BSS to another. Disassociation: A notification from either a station or an AP that an existing association is terminated. A station should give this notification before leaving an ESS or shutting down.

IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN Standard Access and Privacy Services IEEE 802.11 defines three services that provide a wireless LAN with privacy and authentication Authentication: Used to establish the identity of stations to each other for a wireless LAN, in which connectivity is achieved simply by having an attached antenna that is properly tuned. The authentication service is used by stations to establish their identity with stations they wish to communicate with.

IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN Standard Deauthentication: This service is invoked whenever an existing authentication is to be terminated. Privacy: Used to prevent the contents of messages from being read by other than the intended recipient. The standard provides for the optional use of encryption to assure privacy.
