BSS Transition Management (802.11v)
The 802.11v standard provides Wireless Network Management enhancements to the IEEE
802.11 MAC and PHY. It extends radio measurements to define mechanisms for wireless
network management of stations including BSS transition management.
APs support the generation of the BSS transition management request frames to the
802.11k clients when a suitable AP is identified for a client through Client Match.
