Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The ATIM (Announcement Traffic Indication Message) window is used in an Independent Basic Service Set (IBSS) to coordinate the transmission of data between devices. In an IBSS, devices communicate directly with each other without the use of an access point. The ATIM window is a brief period of time during which devices can send ATIM messages to each other to reserve the channel for the transmission of data. The ATIM window is not used in other types of wireless networks such as a Basic Service Set (BSS) or an Extended Service Set (ESS). Therefore, the best choice is B, IBSS.
