mtkiappd - user space daemon supported 802.11f protocol
|
|
for RTxxxx a/b/g/n SoftAP driver, Ralink Technology, Corp.
|
|
=================================================================
|
|
|
|
This is the README file for the 802.11f/802.11r/802.11k daemon - mtkiappd,
|
|
which comes with RTxxxx SoftAP driver.
|
|
|
|
|
|
I. Introduction
|
|
=================================================================
|
|
mtkiappd is an optional user space component for RTxxxx SoftAP driver.
|
|
|
|
|
|
II. 802.11f features in mtkiappd
|
|
=================================================================
|
|
IEEE Std 802.11F-2003 is a standard for inter-access point protocol(IAPP).
|
|
It can handle issues on multi-verder access point interoperability.
|
|
|
|
There are three major topics which 802.11f supported,
|
|
1. ADD-notify
|
|
2. MOVE-notify
|
|
3. CACHE-notify
|
|
|
|
mtkiappd only supports ADD-notify in current phase due to lack of support from radius server
|
|
|
|
There are three major topics which 802.11r supported,
|
|
1. Key Distribution Protocol
|
|
|
|
There are three major topics which 802.11k supported,
|
|
1. Neighbor Report
|
|
|
|
Some ethernet card needs special configuration to support multicasting.
|
|
Make sure your ethernet card support multicasting
|
|
|
|
|
|
III. How to start mtkiappd
|
|
=================================================================
|
|
Note: the broadcast/netmask address of all AP must be the same.
|
|
1. If you want to debug mtkiappd, add CFLAGS with DBG.
|
|
2. If you want to extend wifi control interface,
|
|
modify "MAX_WIFI_COUNT" in rtmpiapp.h. (default setting is 2)
|
|
3. First we need to compile the source code using 'make' command
|
|
4. Load RTxxxx SoftAP driver - ex: rt2860ap.ko
|
|
5. Manually start mtkiappd, type $mtkiappd
|
|
6. For wifi multi-interface, type $mtkiappd -wi ra0 -wi rai0
