7. doc.: IEEE 802.11-04/024r1 Submission Jan 12-16, 2004 TK Tan (Philips) Slide 7 Motivation Hotspot use will become an increasing larger issue in public communications and it is felt by many that interworking of hotspots to external networks must be addressed by the IEEE 802.11, even if the conclusion of an initial investigation is that further standardization is not actually required. It is felt that interworking will increase the range of services and market reach of IEEE 802.11 devices.

9. doc.: IEEE 802.11-04/024r1 Submission Jan 12-16, 2004 TK Tan (Philips) Slide 9 Security SC Charter, Pt. 1: This SC is formed as an advisory committee on Security in WLANs to the IEEE 802.11 chair Serve as a forum to ensure that security within IEEE 802.11 is maintained as the standard is amended

10. doc.: IEEE 802.11-04/024r1 Submission Jan 12-16, 2004 TK Tan (Philips) Slide 10 Move to request the IEEE 802.11 Working Group to form a Wireless Network Management Study Group for the purpose of evaluating methods to securely enable external network management entities (managed service providers, company IT personnel, hot spot providers, applications developers, etc.) to extend the management of the wired networks through to the wireless extension attached to those networks. Once evaluated, it is expected that a PAR and a 5 Criteria document will be written and submitted to the IEEE 802.11 Working Group so that a Task Group can be formed. Results (43/0/13) Motion #3

11. doc.: IEEE 802.11-04/024r1 Submission Jan 12-16, 2004 TK Tan (Philips) Slide 11 Study Group Purpose Statement The proposed Study Group will evaluate the need to enable external network management entities (managed service providers, company IT personnel, hot spot providers, applications developers, etc.) to extend the management of the wired networks through to the wireless extension attached to those networks. Once evaluated, it is expected that a PAR and a 5 Criteria document will be written and submitted to the IEEE 802.11 Working Group so that a Task Group can be formed. This is a logical extension to the work now underway in Task Group “k”.

Patents IEEE standards may include the known use of patent(s), including patent applications, provided the IEEE receives assurance from the patent holder or applicant with respect to patents essential for compliance with both mandatory and optional portions of the standard. This assurance shall be provided without coercion and prior to approval of the standard (or reaffirmation when a patent becomes known after initial approval of the standard). This assurance shall be a letter that is in the form of either a) A general disclaimer to the effect that the patentee will not enforce any of its present or future patent(s) whose use would be required to implement the proposed IEEE standard against any person or entity using the patent(s) to comply with the standard or b) A statement that a license will be made available without compensation or under reasonable rates, with reasonable terms and conditions that are demonstrably free of any unfair discrimination This assurance shall apply, at a minimum, from the date of the standard's approval to the date of the standard's withdrawal and is irrevocable during that period.
