Detailed Description

WifiDefaultGcrManager is the default implementation for groupcast with retries GCR, as defined in 802.11aa.

Since the standard does not describe how to map GCR-capable STAs to a given GCR group, the default implementation assumes all GCR-capable STAs are part of all GCR groups. Also, it is left left open to implementation which individual address to use to use while protecting a GCR transmission. The default implementation decides to pick the address of the first associated GCR-capable STA.
