Running the test

Before you run the test, complete the test setup as described in the test requirements: Wireless LAN (802.11) Testing Prerequisites.

This test performs the following actions:

• Configure one router, as follows:
  • Router 0 - 2.4Ghz : WPA2PSK/AES [Preferred PHY G/Channel 6]
  • Router 0 - 5Ghz : WPA2PSK/AES [Preferred PHY N/Channel 40]
• Perform a Scan and validate that the router is found
• Validate that the adapter is reporting itself as AOAC capable and reports the NDIS_WLAN_WAKE_ON_AP_ASSOCIATION_LOST_SUPPORTED capability
• Create a profile for Router 0 - 2.4 GHz having ConnectionMode configured as manual.
• Perform a WlanConnect using the profile
• Configure the AP controller server machine to turn off the Router 0 - 2.4 GHz after 2 minutes 30 seconds
• Disable other Network Adapters on the Client machine
• Start monitoring WLAN state and adapter power state events
• Enter Connected Standby for 5 minutes
• Enable other Network Adapters on the Client machine
• Check the WLAN state and adapter power state events to validate that the adapter went to low power and woke up due to AP Association loss as expected
