(It's not like park mode where data isn't sent.) Isn't it technically possible for the master to send small amount of BNEP data to PANUs in parked mode using the PSB logical channel? The PANU would of course have to shift into connected mode before replying. The above would allow the system to support a BNEP layer broadcast (e.g. ARP) to all PANUs attached to the GN (i.e those in connected and parked mode). > > One last question on this issue.
