Hello everyone,
I am a newbie of hostap project. Recently I am working on a project
using OpenWRT and WLE900V 802.11ac module. I want to add a function to
monitor the 802.11 physical link state between AP and client using MAC
layer info. The solution I found is using inactive time from nl802154.
Then I made a test with one AP and one client. Both sides have no IP
addresses. After the connection is setup I found that the inactive time
continues increase until about 10 min and then restart from 0. The
problem is that 10 min period is too long for us. And I know that when
there are rx or tx, the inactive time will be refreshed. So I want to as
Is there some parameters or command to control the inactive time
refresh period in hostapd ? Thanks a lot.
Regards,
Xue Liu
