["Black, David" <[e-mail]>]

This is a TSVWG call for interest in WG adoption of draft-szigeti-tsvwg-ieee-802-11.
If you have read the draft and support WG adoption of it as a work item
and WG draft, please send an email to the list ([e-mail]) saying so.

NB: It is important to say that you've read the draft.  If you're willing
to review/comment on future versions of this draft and/or implement this
draft, please say so on the list or in email directly to the chairs

             Guidelines for DiffServ to IEEE 802.11 Mapping
                   draft-szigeti-tsvwg-ieee-802-11-01

Abstract

   As internet traffic is increasingly sourced-from and destined-to
   wireless endpoints, it is crucial that Quality of Service be aligned
   between wired and wireless networks; however, this is not always the
   case by default.  This is due to the fact that two independent
   standards bodies provide QoS guidance on wired and wireless networks:
   specifically, the IETF specifies standards and design recommendations
   for wired IP networks, while a separate and autonomous standards-
   body, the IEEE, administers the standards for wireless 802.11
   networks.  The purpose of this document is to propose a set
   Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) to IEEE 802.11 User
   Priority (UP) mappings to reconcile the marking recommendations
   offered by these two standards bodies, and, as such, to optimize
   wired-and-wireless interconnect QoS.

Thanks, --David
