  "whatItIs": "IANA registered 3517 in 2002 for the IEEE 802.11 working group's Inter-Access Point Protocol, the mechanism by which access points on the same subnet told each other that a station had roamed and handed over its context. It was published as IEEE 802.11F, a trial-use standard, and withdrawn in 2006; vendors moved to controller-based architectures and CAPWAP instead. If you see it, you are looking at an old autonomous access point on a management VLAN, not at anything current.",
