Zusammenfassung:Systems and methods are described herein for connecting related applications over a peer-to-peer network wireless connection using layer 2 communications protocols to initiate the connection between the applications. The layer 2 communications protocols include discovery frames that may be used to discover various types of systems available on a wireless network. The discover frames also include application names or identifiers that may be used to discover which applications are available for connecting with other systems over the wireless network.
