[RFC v2] mgmt-api: Add support for Read Remote RSSI

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

 



Two commands has been introduced:
Start Read Remote RSSI Command
Stop Read Remote RSSI Command

And one Event:
Remote RSSI Changed Event

Idea is that it is possible to start/stop read remote RSSI session
and register for RSSI Change event with given theshold.
This API gives a possibility to do one time RSSI read in case userspace
really needs that.
