One thing that I am trying to implement is a fixed beacon size, regardless of the adapter and driver. Beacon frames have variable length since some of the IEs can change their length from beacon to beacon (e.g., TIM IE) and IEs can be added or removed from Beacon frames based on the state of the BSS. > There doesn’t appear to be driver-to-hostapd communication (or query) to determine the driver’s additions to the final beacon, as far as I can tell. > > What would the group suggest as a way to solve this? The generic case does not sound like something that could be solved without modifying the driver/firmware to pad Beacon frames at low level before transmission. -- Jouni Malinen PGP id EFC895FA _______________________________________________ Hostap mailing list Hostap@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/hostap
