<DIV><BR>Thank you, Jouni !!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I had another experiments today.<BR>I modified addr3 field to the address
of the other node which is connected to AP (HostAP mode) by wired
Ethernet.<BR>(I'm using AP in bridge mode.)<BR>And I modified addr2 field which
indicates BSSID to totally strange one.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Then, I enabled RTS/CTS mechanism.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>And what happened?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The AP sent my laptop RTS packet of which source address doesn't exist on
the network, and my poor laptop sent CTS to the stranger.<BR>This process was
repeated twice. (I've already set the retry limit to 2 using iwconfig.)<BR>And,
of course, there was no data transmission as I expected.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I think this procedure can prevent all other stations from using the medium
'cause they are learned not to use the medium by their NAV.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Isn't this interesting? I had so fun today.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
