struct ieee80211_if_(9)

NAME

struct_ieee80211_if_conf - configuration of an interface

SYNOPSIS

struct ieee80211_if_conf {
  int type;
  u8 * bssid;
  u8 * ssid;
  size_t ssid_len;
  struct sk_buff * beacon;
  struct ieee80211_tx_control * beacon_control;
};

MEMBERS

type
type of the interface. This is always the same as was specified in struct ieee80211_if_init_conf. The type of an interface never
changes during the life of the interface; this field is present
only for convenience.
bssid
BSSID of the network we are associated to/creating.
ssid
used (together with ssid_len) by drivers for hardware that generate beacons independently. The pointer is valid only during the
config_interface call, so copy the value somewhere if you need it.
ssid_len
length of the ssid field.
beacon
beacon template. Valid only if host_gen_beacon_template in struct ieee80211_hw is set. The driver is responsible of freeing the
sk_buff.
beacon_control
tx_control for the beacon template, this field is only valid when
the beacon field was set.

DESCRIPTION

This structure is passed to the config_interface callback of struct ieee80211_hw.
