Dear Hostapd community, I hope this email finds you well. I am currently working on a project involving MACsec and hostapd, and I would greatly appreciate your guidance on a couple of questions I have. Automatic MACsec Channel Establishment: Is it possible with the current version of hostapd to compile a version that supports automatic MACsec channel establishment between a wired Linux client (running wpa_supplicant) and a host running hostapd on the other end of the wired link ? I saw that there was a lot of MACsec related code in the source, but didn't manage to find a working configuration to achieve this other than this guy : https://github.com/alessandrotrisolini/hostapd If so, could you please provide some guidance on the necessary configurations or changes required to enable this feature ? Custom Hostapd Implementation for a Specific Use Case: I am also interested in developing a custom version of hostapd tailored to my particular use case, which involves having one instance of hostapd running on a virtual port/NIC, acting as a Port Access Entity (PAE), Authenticator, and maintaining an MKA session with a single authenticated wired host running wpa_supplicant. To achieve this, I would like to know which specific blocks of code within the hostapd codebase are required for this purpose. Your guidance on the essential components and any potential modifications needed would be invaluable in helping me build a streamlined version of hostapd for my project. I have already read a lot of the codebase to familiarize myself with it and started to reorder files that seemed relevant to my use case, but I feel like this will take an eternity.. I understand that this is a complex request, but any assistance or pointers you could provide would be very much appreciated. I look forward to your response. Thank you for your time Best regards, Victor _______________________________________________ Hostap mailing list Hostap@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/hostap
