[RFC v2 12/12] mac80211: report OBSS beacons

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

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

If there's an interface in AP mode, OBSS beacons
are needed by hostapd/wpa_s to implement logic to
enable/disable protection etc. Report the frames
and set the capability flag.
