A beacon and Action frame are broadcasted. The SSID in the beacon is hidden (32-bytes with value 0). | |||
During connection, the Station first sends a probe-request using the [[#NetworkInfo|generated]] SSID from the Action frame. If the probe-response contains the expected data for the [[#SecurityConfig]] type, the Station then proceeds to connect to the AccessPoint. | |||
Once connected, the Station must Authenticate with the AccessPoint, this is custom. The Station sends a frame, and the AccessPoint sends a response. Once Authenticated, the node is added to the [[#NodeInfo]] array in [[#NetworkInfo]], the Station will throw an error if it can't find a matching [[#MacAddress]] for itself here. If the Station does not successfully Authenticate X-seconds after connecting, the AccessPoint disconnects the Station. If the Station fails to Authenticate, the Station itself will disconnect as well. | |||
This does not use DHCP, each node on the network has to manually setup ARP (without sending ARP network requests) with the [[#NodeInfo]] array in [[#NetworkInfo]]. | This does not use DHCP, each node on the network has to manually setup ARP (without sending ARP network requests) with the [[#NodeInfo]] array in [[#NetworkInfo]]. | ||
At this point standard sockets can be used over Data frames. | |||
