Re: [PATCH] Fix for interface names parameter ignores subsequent parameters

Hi Jouni,

I don't necessarily need a config file if hostapd_cli can do the following:
enable/disable interface (for wired) and modify radius attributes.
>From what I could find, it seems to only be used to show various mibs,
collect station information, and so on.
Perhaps I need to modify some configs and recompile?

How would I do the following?....

1. Enable driver wired for say eth1,  also disable EAP wired listening on eth3
2. Set a radius IP auth address 10.10.10.10, same for accounting,
set auth and acct ports.
3. Monitor a port for authentication (I think this is easy enough to just
detect when EAP completes with success or failure).
4. Detect link up/down so I can add/remove filtering on ports.  I could probably
do this outside hostapd but it would be nice to be able to control
this via hostapd_cli.

Thanks,
Sam
