5 MirrorLink over WFD Procedure
5.1 General
MirrorLink over Wi-Fi Display (WFD) connection between MirrorLink Server acting as WFD source device and
MirrorLink Client acting as WFD sink device shall take place in the 4 following phases, as depicted in Figure 3.

Figure 3: MirrorLink over Wi-Fi Display Diagram
5.2 Phase 1: WFD Connection Setup
Phase 1 shall start when MirrorLink over Wi-Fi Display is switched on. In addition, if persistent WFD Group for
MirrorLink exists, it is recommended that WFD Connection setup proceeds automatically without user interaction such
as re-selection of WFD & CCC capable device.
The following requirements apply to the phase 1:
WFD Device Discovery:
To establish a MirrorLink over Wi-Fi Display connection, Wi-Fi P2P device discovery with WFD IE
(Information Element) shall be used. Wi-Fi Display devices shall advertise the WFD IEs defined in Wi-Fi
Display specification.
In addition to the WFD IEs, the MirrorLink devices shall include the CCC Information Element that shall
contain the MirrorLink UPnP Device Information sub-element and may contain the Internet Accessibility sub-
element, as specified in [3], into all beacon, probe request and probe response frames. The MirrorLink devices
shall detect other MirrorLink devices through CCC IE.
Detection of the CCC Information Element, together with the WFD Information Element, is sufficient for a
Wi-Fi P2P device to determine that the sending Wi-Fi P2P device is supporting MirrorLink over WFD. In case
Tunneled Data Link Service (TDLS) is used, the CCC Information shall also be tunneled through the Wi-Fi
Access Point.
In case a MirrorLink Server is a Wi-Fi P2P concurrent device, i.e. connected to the MirrorLink Client's Access
Point as a WLAN STA and implements a Wi-Fi P2P device, both interfaces will belong to different Basic
Service Sets (BSS). In this case the MirrorLink Client and Server should use regular Wi-Fi P2P connection
setup to establish the WFD session.
ETSI

---------------------- Page: 9 ----------------------
10 ETSI TS 103 544-17 V1.3.1 (2019-10)
Wi-Fi P2P defines 2 phases for device discovery (refer to [5] for details). In the Scan phase, P2P devices
collect information about surrounding devices or networks by scanning all supported channels. Devices may
actively send Probe Request frames to look for Legacy AP or P2P Group Owners. The Find phase has two
states, a Search and a Listen state. Within the Search state, P2P devices go through a fixed set of channels and
send Probe Requests. Within the Listen state, P2P devices wait on a fixed channel and respond to received
Probe Requests.
In case of an existing P2P Group, an existing P2P GO, or an existing Legacy AP (using TDLS), successful
discovery is possible in Scan phase, assuming that all devices are operational. In case no P2P Group exists,
one device has to be in Find/Search state, while the other device has to be in Find/Listen state to ensure
successful device discovery.
Typically, most MirrorLink Servers will only be in Scan phase in regular intervals. Additionally, a MirrorLink
Server may only go into Scan phase after a user interaction. Therefore, establishment of a MirrorLink over
WFD connection may need manual interaction from the consumer, at least for the initial connection setup.
The MirrorLink Client, supporting MirrorLink over WFD, should switch on Wi-Fi P2P and start the WFD
Device Discovery, latest when the MirrorLink Client gets powered on, otherwise the MirrorLink Client shall
provide a consumer accessible mechanism, which will enable WFD Device Discovery.
The MirrorLink Server, supporting MirrorLink over WFD, shall provide a consumer accessible mechanism,
which will enable the Wi-Fi P2P Device Discovery. This mechanism may only be usable, after the consumer
has switched on the Wi-Fi radio.
The mechanism to enable WFD Device Discovery will only ensure the Wi-Fi P2P connection setup. This
should not automatically start the WFD stream.
WFD Connection Setup
A WFD connection setup using Wi-Fi P2P shall be supported. A WFD connection setup using TDLS should
not be used.
The MirrorLink devices shall follow the process of Wi-Fi P2P/WFD as specified in [5].
The MirrorLink devices shall connect to a device, which includes a WFD IE and a CCC IE. To establish a P2P
connection for a WFD connection setup, the MirrorLink devices shall also include the CCC Information
Element that shall contain the MirrorLink UPnP Device Information sub-element and may contain the Internet
Accessibility sub-element, as specified in [3], when transmitting the P2P Invitation Request, P2P Invitation
Response, GO Negotiation Request, GO Negotiation Response, GO Confirmation, Association/Reassociation
Request and Association/Reassociation Response frames.
The Persistence WFD Group allows automatic WFD connection through caching the information for the
Group. To establish a Persistence WFD Group, the MirrorLink devices should follow the process of WFD as
specified in [5].
WFD Automatic Re-Connection
The MirrorLink Server and Client should allow for automatic reconnection, in case the devices are known, and
known to have used MirrorLink over WFD recently.
In case automatic reconnection is supported, the MirrorLink Client shall either automatically switch on Wi-Fi
P2P and start the WFD Device Discovery or shall automatically switch on Bluetooth. In case it recognizes a
known MirrorLink Server to which it had previously connected via MirrorLink over WFD, it shall
automatically attempt to reconnect, unless automatic reconnection is disabled from the consumer.
In case automatic reconnection is supported, the MirrorLink Server shall either automatically switch on Wi-Fi
P2P and start the WFD Device Discover or shall automatically switch on Bluetooth. In case it recognizes a
known MirrorLink Client to which it had previously connected via Mirror MirrorLink over WFD, it shall
automatically attempt to reconnect, unless automatic reconnection is disabled from the consumer.
MirrorLink Clients and Servers supporting automatic reconnection should implement Persistent WFD Group
over P2P.

11 ETSI TS 103 544-17 V1.3.1 (2019-10)
Testing Considerations
MirrorLink devices may refuse to establish a Wi-Fi P2P connection to devices not capable of supporting
MirrorLink. In order to undergo Miracast conformance and IOP testing, those devices may implement a
specific test mode in which a Wi-Fi P2P session with non-MirrorLink devices is possible, which may be
disabled afterwards for MirrorLink operation.
5.3 Phase 2: UPnP Setup
Phase 1 shall be completed, before phase 2 can start.

Figure 4: UPnP Setup Sequence Diagram
UPnP Operation Start
Based on the information within the CCC IE from the WFD device discovery and WFD connection setup
stages, the MirrorLink device activates the respective UPnP components (i.e. TmServer Control Point or
TmServerServer) in the device.
The MirrorLink Client shall immediately activate its UPnP TmServerDevice:1 Control Point if it connects to a
MirrorLink device with a UPnP TmServerDevice:1 Server.
The MirrorLink Server shall immediately activate its UPnP TmServerDevice:1 Server, if it connects to a
MirrorLink device with a UPnP TmServerDevice:1 Control Point.
The MirrorLink Client shall follow the UPnP Operation Start sequence defined in the MirrorLink Core
Architecture specification [7].
UPnP Device Description
The MirrorLink Client devices shall either use the CCC Information Element, defined in [3], or shall
send an SSDP:discover message to determine the location of the MirrorLink Server's UPnP Server
Device XML. The MirrorLink Client shall not wait for an SSDP:alive messages for initial UPnP
Setup.
The structure of the UPnP Server Device XML is specified in [4]. The UPnP Server Device XML
description shall be accessible at the following URL via HTTP-GET.
http://:/
The MirrorLink Client shall form the UPnP Device Description URL with the following elements, when
using the CCC Information Element:
 IP Address: IP address of the MirrorLink Server, as retrieved with in the DHCP negotiation
with the WFD connection setup process. The DHCPOFFER message includes both, the DHCP
Server and Client IP address. The IP address of the DHCP Server can be determined during the
DHCP negotiation, according to IETF RFC 2131 [9]. A DHCP server always returns its own
address in the 'server identifier' option, as
...
