I did not looked into the source code of iw > though. No, that's not supported since all virtual interfaces (e.g. wlan0) belonging to a device (e.g. phy0) must move namespaces together. Otherwise you could do iw wlan0 interface add wlan0b type managed and then try to move wlan0 while wlan0b stays in the namespace. In theory that might actually be useful given appropriate resource reservation and multi-interface/multi-channel capable devices, but it would require a massive effort to get it right - it's not useful enough ;) johannes -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
