The correct answer is E. Clients send null data frames to the AP and switch the power management bit from 1 to 0 to. See the full explanation below for the reasoning.

Question

As defined in the 802.11 specification, legacy Power Save requires an inefficient back-and-forth frame exchange process. Due to this inefficiency, many WLAN device implementations use a variation of 802.11 Power Save to accomplish the same function. What non-standard power save behavior is used by most Wi-Fi devices in actual legacy Power Save implementations?

Options

  • AClient devices ignore the TIM field and automatically send PS-Poll frames after every beacon.
  • BAfter each beacon, the AP attempts to empty its frame buffer by sending Wake-on-WLAN frames
  • CRequest-to-Send and Clear-to-Send frame exchanges are used to trigger the delivery of buffered
  • DThe Beacon interval is changed from the default 100 time units to 10 or less time units.
  • EClients send null data frames to the AP and switch the power management bit from 1 to 0 to
  • FStations send a CTS-to-self frame to the AP with a very long duration period so they can receive
