2.1.2 Negotiation

After detecting P2P devices, establishing a connection is possible. In most cases, the process of establishing connection consists of two steps: selecting a target device from the list of devices on one P2P device and allowing this device connection on the second P2P device. The order of initiation does not have an impact on the role assigned after connection. In some cases, such as mirroring device display using a Miracast connection, the connection establishment only requires the selection of the target device on the source device. When the connection process has been invoked, the first phase toward connection is negotiation about which device operates as GO in this connection by using a value between 0 and 15 that is usually predefined on each device. The device with a higher value operates as GO and the other device operates as client.
