For those of you on the IETF side of this mailing list, I'd like to bring
you attention to a couple of new task groups that have been started up in
IEEE 802.11. Both of these task groups arose from the initial efforts in the
Randomized and Changing MAC address Topic Information Group, which was
followed by a matching Study Group.

 

IEEE 802.11bh deals with operational issues that arise in the presence of
randomized and changing MAC addresses. IEEE 802.11bi looks at enhanced data
privacy, since there's more to privacy than just randomizing MAC addresses.

 

An IEEE press release/blog post describing the new task groups can be found
at:
https://beyondstandards.ieee.org/data-privacy-and-ease-of-use-in-wireless-ne
tworks/.

 

If you are interested in participating in these working groups, they
continue to meet during online virtual IEEE 802 meetings (6 times per year)
and scheduled teleconferences (more frequently). The IEEE 802 meetings for
July and September are already confirmed as being online. These have a small
meeting fee associated with them. Whether the meetings in November and
beyond will be virtual has not yet been decided. Teleconferences do not have
any fees. More details on when meetings and calls take place can be found
at: https://www.ieee802.org/11/.
