In 802.11a they mention that timestamp is sent by the AP
to all stations.This timestamp or TSF timer is an 8 octet
integer which gives the number of micro seconds.i.e,2^64
is the count.When does this timer in AP is set and on what
basis it is set.
Is it set on the basis of current time or just a counter
which increments in terms of micro seconds.
And when this counter reaches its limit, is it reset or
it resets every day, i.e, every 24 hours.
