     24The 802.11 station will deliver all data MPDUs from the AP to an Ethernet port on WARP v3. It will also honor the handshake process for associating with a network that is specified in the 802.11 standard. A visualization of this handshake is shown in the above state diagram.

     30Ethernet receptions for an 802.11 station are very straightforward. All packets are delivered wirelessly to the associated AP.

     36The station code can interact with a user to trigger an active scan or attempt to associate with a particular SSID. The active scan will generate a list of surrounding APs and their capabilities (e.g. supported rates, SSID, channel, etc). This interaction currently takes place through a UART menu that can be accessed via [wiki:howto/USB_UART USB].
