Beacon Report Requests and Probe Responses
The beacon request frame is sent by an AP to request a client to report the list of beacons
detected by the client on all channels.
● The beacon request is sent using the radio measurement request action frame.
● It is sent only to those clients that have the capability to generate beacon reports. The
clients indicate their capabilities through the
RRM enabled capabilities IE sent in the
association request frames.
● By default, the beacon request frames are sent at a periodicity of 60 seconds.
