86	 This options enables support of Draft 802.11s mesh networking.
87	 The implementation is based on Draft 2.08 of the Mesh Networking
88	 amendment.  However, no compliance with that draft is claimed or even
89	 possible, as drafts leave a number of identifiers to be defined after
90	 ratification.  For more information visit http://o11s.org/.
