I want to know more about the TDLS implementation. According to IEEE 802.11z(http://standards.ieee.org/news/2011/80211z.html) which is incorporated to IEEE 802.11-2012 document. It says that "A TDLS direct link is set up automatically, without need for user intervention, while the connection with the AP is maintained". But in the mac80211 we need to configure the peer mac to make it work(using wpa_supplicant), so as said by IEEE, without the need for user intervention spec is not met right ? Can someone throw some light into the TDLS feature in linux and the future road map. Thanks for the help, Dino Joseph Mycle
