One-way Service Discovery Protocol support
Request/Response mechanism cannot support multicasting messages in service discovery protocols such as:
Multicast DNS for Bonjour
SSDP(Simple Service Discovery Protocol) for UPnP
WS-Discovery(Web Services Dynamic Discovery) for WSD
Other unknown protocols which use multicasting UDP
Notifying Pre-Association Messages(PAM) could tunnel those one-way messages
Message Patterns of SOAP over UDP
Unicast one-way
Multicast one-way
Unicast request, unicast response
Multicast request, unicast response

6. Options for the public action frames
April 2013
Options for the public action frames
AP sends the public action frames (PAM)
on an arbitrary channel or
on a common channel or
on each channels while traversing

8. Issues A common channel
April 2013
Issues
A common channel
A channel could be designated for service discovery?
The public action frames for service advertisement
How often does AP send them for service discovery?
Just one time is feasible? Maybe not.
Transparency
802.11aq service discovery is transparent to applications for both on clients and servers?
Possibly if it supports multicasting service discovery types as well as request/response unicast mechanism.
