For a 6 GHz AP beacon HE Operation element with the 6 GHz Operation
Information field setting Duplicate Beacon = True and setting a 6 GHz
Primary Channel, it seems wpa_supplicant does not parse this
information.
As a result, wpa_supplicant updates the BSSID channel/frequency based
on where it saw the beacon last, which is usually not the actual
channel.
Example below of a scan of a 6 GHz AP with Duplicate Beacons enabled.
Best regards,
Dennis
