As scanning is part of MAC protocol should there be a TLV to send that report 
from WTP to AC? Because for RF solutions WTP need to perform scanning and 
analyze that data. Currently for these solutions vendors have proprietary 

algorithms. Should the data collection part be standardized? (The data 
interpretation can remain vendor specific).
 
This will help in achieving greater interoperability, as AC can collect data 
and statistics from different vendor's WTPs but the algorithms and solution to 

analyze them can still remain proprietary

In this regard should CAPWAP provide the binding for sending scanning 
report/statistics from WTP to AC?


Proposed resolution: Add to the "Wish" category, and defer to a future version
of the
CAPWAP IEEE 802.11 binding document. Reports of Scan results are being
incorporated in the IEEE 802.11k Beacon report, which is in the
process of being standardized.
