Parameter Description
group-frame-block Enable this parameter if you want to stop the W-IAP from sending forward downstream
group-addressed frames.
hessid Specify a Homogenous Extended Service Set Identifier (HESSID) in a hexadecimal format
separated by colons.
internet Specify this parameter to allow the W-IAP to send an Information Element (IE) indicating
that the network allows Internet access.
p2p-cross-connect Specify this parameter to advertise support for P2P cross-connections.
p2p-dev-mgmt Specify this parameter to advertise support for P2P device management.
pame-bi Specify this parameter to enable Pre-Association Message Exchange BSSID Independent
(PAME-BI) bit, with which the W-IAP can indicate that the Advertisement Server can return
a query response independent of the BSSID used in the GAS Frame exchange.
query-response-
length-limit
Specify this parameter to set the maximum length of the GAS query response, in octets.
You can specify a value within the range of 1–127. The default value is 127.
roam-cons-len-1
roam-cons-len-2
roam-cons-len-3
Specify the length of the organization identifier (OI). That is, the value for the length of OIs
of roam-cons-len-1, roam-cons-len-2, or roam-cons-len-3. The roaming consortium OIis
based on the following parameters:
l 0: Zero Octets in the OI (Null)
l 3: OI length is 24-bits (3 Octets)
l 5: OI length is 36-bits (5 Octets)
venue-group Specify one of the following venue groups
l unspecified
l assembly
l business
l educational
l factory-and-industrial
l institutional
l mercantile
l outdoor
l residential
l storage
l utility-misc
l vehicular
By default, the business venue group is used.
venue-type Specify a venue type to be advertised in the ANQP IEs from W-IAPs associated with this
hotspot profile. For more information about the supported venue types for each venue
group, see
Table 80.
