[PATCHv2 1/2] hostapd: Add Multi-AP protocol support

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Venkateswara Naralasetty <vnaralas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The purpose of Multi-AP specification is to enable inter-operability
across Wi-Fi access points (APs) from different vendors.

Advertise vendor specific Multi-AP capabilities in (Re)Association
response frame, if user enable Multi-AP functionality through
configuration parameter.Create one AP/VLAN interface for the client
which supports Multi-AP since as per the Multi-AP spec fronthaul AP
should receive both 3addr and 4addr frames from the backhaul STA.

This patch introducing one new configuration parameter 'multi_ap_enabled'
to enable Multi-AP functionlity.

v2:
 * changed to multi_ap subelemt from fixed to dynamic
 * added few more checks
