摘要: A mechanism is provided to enable a station discover link/network/service information about potential wireless point of attachment by extending the set that available before actually authenticates and associates attachment. The includes method for interworking between Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN), including defined in IEEE 802.11 Standard Protocol, one or more other networks, 3GPP, 3GPP2 802.16), featuring network node may be (STA), beacon contain information, where extended with allow terminal identify if mobility (handoff) an access (AP) implies L3 handoff only L2 handoff, subnet prefix new AP belongs to. When (STA) listens beacon, STA discovers can provide additional information. If interested, sends probe request indicating which it requires, returns response based on
