Field Documentation

const char* wpa_interface::bridge_ifname

Optional bridge interface name. If the driver interface (ifname) is included in a Linux bridge device, the bridge interface may need to be used for receiving EAPOL frames. This can be enabled by setting this variable to enable receiving of EAPOL frames from an additional interface.

const char* wpa_interface::confname

Configuration name (file or profile) name. This can also be NULL when a configuration file is not used. In that case, ctrl_interface must be set to allow the interface to be configured.

const char* wpa_interface::ctrl_interface

Control interface parameter. If a configuration file is not used, this variable can be used to set the ctrl_interface parameter that would have otherwise been read from the configuration file. If both confname and ctrl_interface are set, ctrl_interface is used to override the value from configuration file.

const char* wpa_interface::driver_param

Driver interface parameters. If a configuration file is not used, this variable can be used to set the driver_param parameters that would have otherwise been read from the configuration file. If both confname and driver_param are set, driver_param is used to override the value from configuration file.
