hostapd dealing with ifconfig changes

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

 



Using hostapd I was wondering whether it can deal with other user-space processes (or users) doing ifconfig down (and up) on the network interface in use. So would hostapd restart the AP interface upon ifconfig down and subsequent ifconfig up. Any pointers into the code in which such a scenario is handled would be appreciated. Will dive into that anyway, but any help is more than welcome.

I suppose hostapd_cli disable/enable would be an alternative approach to restart an AP interface, right?

Regards,
Arend
