I'd expect most drivers to have similar restriction at least for tx_queue_*. In theory, wmm_ac_* could likely be made to use different values for each BSS with a hostapd change since these only impact what is being advertised in various management frames. tx_queue_* would likely be more difficult due to driver/hardware restrictions. The other items on the list are per-BSS in hostapd and will likely work with most drivers as per-BSS parameters as well, so different values can be used for each BSS. -- Jouni Malinen PGP id EFC895FA _______________________________________________ Hostap mailing list Hostap@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/hostap
