Abstract
A method for operating an access point (AP) includes receiving a group resource request from a first station (STA). The group resource request indicates that at least one second STA is in a same peer-to-peer (P2P) group as the first STA. The method further includes determining whether to verify inclusion of the at least one second STA in the same P2P group as the first STA; and transmitting a response to the first STA indicating whether the AP needs to verify inclusion of the at least one second STA in the same P2P group as the first STA.
