Connection between AP and Router
1. Beacon Frame
AP
2. Join Request
3. Join Response
4. Link report
RT
Step 1: AP broadcasts beacon frame with network parameters
Step 2: RT will send out “Join Request” if AP allows new connection
Step 3: AP confirms the connection is accepted by sending “Join Response”.
Step 4: RT sends a Link report to notify AP that “Join Response” is received and
connection is up now.

2.2.3 Data Transmission / Reception
Data (or Request) is initiated from customer software that is integrated with M2C
Daemon by TCP connection (* note4).
To utilize limited Radio Frequency resources, M2C designs a reliable data
transmission model to increase the success rate of both data transmission /
reception. Each transaction between any of two sides is secured by DataAcknowledgment mechanism.
