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_GTK_HANDSHAKE_ERROR_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 perform WLAN connect to and WLAN disconnect from and WLAN reconnect to 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 did not wake up due to GTK Refreshes while it was in low power state
