A county hospital WLAN design enables 802.11k/v assisted roaming. Which frame class should the analyst expect when validating radio measurement and neighbor-assisted roam behavior on the air?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Assisted roaming isn't telepathy—it rides Action frames. Measurement reports and neighbor coaching show up in that management class, so validate 11k/v by hunting Actions, not by staring at RTS/CTS.
Full Explanation
802.11k radio measurement and 802.11v BSS transition support rely heavily on Action frames (and related IEs) for measurement requests/reports and assisted-roam steering. Validating an assisted-roam design means confirming those Action exchanges—not assuming RTS/CTS or DHCP carry the feature. Protocol analysis ties Action categories to the roam-assist behavior expected in clinical mobility environments.
