As a \emph{legacy client}, all PISA services are performed by the associated access point. A legacy client is "defined" as an unmodified 802.11-capable wireless device and thus handles only 802.11 tasks itself, according to its implementation. PISA tasks such as establishing NAT mappings, tunnels, look-ups etc. are performed by the associated access point. The access points thus holds all the state for the client to participate in the network, all PISA and HIP related aspects of the network such as tunneling, anonymity and security only hold until the access point relays network traffic as pure 802.11 frames to the client. Especially, handovers, whether involuntarily or not, are triggered by the client's wifi driver implementation, no further involvement (until now) by the network is possible/takes place. -Once the client associates with a new access point, this access point needs to update it's NAT mappings, establish tunnels to the services the clients talks to and, by sending a data packet or signaling packet, update the NAT mapping of the communication endpoint. +Once the client associates with a new access point, this access point needs to update its NAT mappings, establish tunnels to the services the clients talks to and, by sending a data packet or signaling packet, update the NAT mapping of the communication endpoint. \item[Service relay] @@ -119,7 +119,7 @@ \item[DNS server] -\item[Certificate Authority] +\item[Certificate Authority] % Sollte das nicht eher Community Operator heißen oder was unterschiedest du da? \end{description} -- This is the pisa developer mailing list.
