Dear All,
My hostapd works in a embeded CPU, which has hardware switch function between ethernet port and wlan port. So it require to insert the switch code before the wlan driver's netif_rx function call. My enviroment is like this: realtek RTL8651C CPU, madwifi 0.9.4, the latest hostapd.
But there is the problem. After I insert switch code into the madwifi, the communication can not work under WPA/WPA2, but open/WEP is OK(the open/WEP operated by madwifi and the WPA/WPA operated by hostapd). So I need to find out where the hostapd's netif_rx function caller is or where should I insert the switch code.
I think I may meet people who use hardware switch chip here. Or someone is familiar with hostapd can help.
Please give me a hand. Or any advice is welcome.
By the way, the latest "developers' documentation for hostapd" can not been download from web-site. Hope it could be updated.
Thank you.
Best Regards,
Shawn.
