The syntax of the IIf function is as follows: IIf(expr, truepart, falsepart) All three parameters are required: e expr is the expression that is to be evaluated. truepart defines what the IIf function returns if the evaluation of expr returns true. falsepart defines what the IIf function returns if the evaluation of expr returns false.
Inter-Access Point Protocol or IEEE 802.11F is a recommendation that describes an optional extension to IEEE 802.11 that provides wireless access point communications among multivendor systems. [ 1 ] 802.11 is a set of IEEE standards that govern wireless networking transmission methods.
Point Coordination Function (PCF) is a media access control (MAC) technique used in IEEE 802.11 based WLANs, including Wi-Fi. It resides in a point coordinator also known as access point (AP), to coordinate the communication within the network.
An extended service set (ESS) is a wireless network, created by multiple access points, which appears to users as a single, seamless network, such as a network covering a home or office that is too large for reliable coverage by a single access point.
SSS has the property of information-theoretic security, meaning that even if an attacker steals some shares, it is impossible for the attacker to reconstruct the secret unless they have stolen the quorum number of shares. Shamir's secret sharing is used in some applications to share the access keys to a master secret.
This protocol was designed under the assumption that all nodes have the same transmission ranges. RTS/CTS frames can cause the exposed terminal problem in which a wireless node that is nearby, but is associated with another access point, overhears the exchange and then is signaled to back off and cease transmitting for the time specified in the RTS.
A Network (Layer) Service Access Point Identifier (NSAPI) is an identifier used in GPRS (cellular data) networks. It is used to identify a Packet Data Protocol (PDP) context (a unique data session) in the Mobile Station (MS) and in the Serving GPRS Support Node (SGSN). It is dynamically selected by the MS (however, the MS should ensure that the ...
In all these cases, both the wireless access points (AP) and all clients share the same key. [ 2 ] The characteristics of this secret or key are determined by the system which uses it; some system designs require that such keys be in a particular format.
