Is Multi-Vif (vaps) Different Channel Operation Supported?

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

 



Hi All,

We are utilizing current ath9k and mac80211 and are trying to discern if multi-channel support is possible on different Vifs, on the same phy.

Example:  

Two Vifs running as masters, controlled via hostapd
One Vif running as a Station, controlled by wpa_supplicant
One Vif running as a mesh vap

We can run all the Vifs fine, but it appears that with shared hostapd/wpa_supplicant control files, that the master Vifs always have to follow the channel that the station is connected to.  The mesh vap also seems to require being on the same channel of the station.

Any info on if this is supported, or what order to process creation, channel setting, etc to get them to simultaneously allow different channel support would be helpful, or save us the time of assuming that it can be done if it in fact can't.

TIA!--
