Abstract Comments from the 802.11 PAR AdHoc to 802.1 WG regarding 802 PAR under consideration: 802.1AEbn. Jon Rosdahl, CSR
802.1AEbn security amendment for Galois counter mode-Advanced Encryption Standard-256 (GCM-AES-256) cipher suite, PAR and 5C 2.1 title: Identify the document being amended, and include WG title and boiler plate. Suggest add a semicolon between Security and amendment. 1.1 Project Number: the PAR form listed for review has 802.1AEbk, the link indicates it should be AEbn, which should be correct? Correct the incorrect one. 5.2: Scope: suggest removal of “as well as the Default Cipher Suite, GC-AES-128”. This is in the standard already. Jon Rosdahl, CSR
802.1AEbn security amendment for Galois counter mode-Advanced Encryption Standard-256 (GCM-AES-256) cipher suite, PAR and 5C 5c – Title needs to be updated to the correct Project Number. Check for usage in the 5c document to ensure consistent use of 802.1AEbn (remove “AEbk”) 5c-1a) Change “MACsec” to “MAC Security” 5c-2) Change “This will be fit” to “This will fit”. Jon Rosdahl, CSR
