IEEE 802.21 Information Server (IS)

Networks may support means to determine, help in determining or provide the location to the clients at various layers
Link layer specific ones: LLDP[-MED], U-TDoA, D-TDoA
Link layer agnostic ones: DHCP, OMA SUPL, RELO, HELD (HTTP based)
Other SDOs defined different LCPs
Service providers need flexibility on how location services are offered in their network
IEEE 802.21 provides a logical place to support a comprehensive list of all support options using IS
