    v70 v71  
    1818'''MAC Software Changes:'''
    1919 * Added a third primary software project alongside AP/STA: the Independent Basic Service Set (IBSS). This is also known as 'ad hoc'
     20  * AppNote that uses IBSS [wiki:802.11/wlan_exp/app_notes/ibss_multiple_flows available here]
    2021 * Added support for 802.11 power save mode in the AP. Specifically, the AP will honor clients' notifications that they will go to sleep. During that time, the AP will queue traffic for them and tell them traffic is available in the traffic indication map (TIM) of beacons.
    2122 * Added new CPU_LOW project: wlan_mac_low_nomac. This very simple project is an alternative to the DCF and all it does it send packets it receives from CPU_HIGH and passes all packets it receives to CPU_HIGH. This is useful for research and education applications where the complexity of the 802.11 DCF may not be needed.
