In some embodiments, one or more wireless stations operate according to Neighbor Awareness Networking (NAN)—direct communication with neighboring wireless stations, e.g., direct communication between the wireless stations without utilizing an intermediate access point. In a NAN system, multiple NAN devices may operate with one another in the form of a NAN cluster to facilitate communications processes. Some embodiments of the disclosure relate to systems and methods for one or more wireless device (e.g., NAN devices) to transition into a cluster (e.g., a NAN cluster). In particular, wireless devices may be further organized into a data cluster (e.g., a NAN data cluster) within a cluster, which may be usable to facilitate the transitioning of a group of connected wireless devices (e.g., data clusters) between clusters. 1.
