MEMBERS¶
channel
The channel to use or NULL if not specified
(auto-select based on scan results)
channel_hint
The channel of the recommended BSS for initial connection
or NULL if not specified
bssid
The AP BSSID or NULL if not specified (auto-select
based on scan results)
bssid_hint
The recommended AP BSSID for initial connection to the
BSS or NULL if not specified. Unlike the bssid parameter, the
driver is allowed to ignore this bssid_hint if it has knowledge of a
better BSS to use.
ssid
SSID
ssid_len
Length of ssid in octets
auth_type
Authentication type (algorithm)
ie
IEs for association request
ie_len
Length of assoc_ie in octets
privacy
indicates whether privacy-enabled APs should be
used
mfp
indicate whether management frame protection is
used
crypto
crypto settings
key
WEP key for shared key authentication
key_len
length of WEP key for shared key authentication
key_idx
index of WEP key for shared key authentication
flags
See enum cfg80211_assoc_req_flags
bg_scan_period
Background scan period in seconds or -1 to indicate that
default value is to be used.
ht_capa
HT Capabilities over-rides. Values set in ht_capa_mask
will be used in ht_capa. Un-supported values will be ignored.
ht_capa_mask
The bits of ht_capa which are to be used.
vht_capa
VHT Capability overrides
vht_capa_mask
The bits of vht_capa which are to be used.
pbss
if set, connect to a PCP instead of AP. Valid for DMG
networks.
bss_select
criteria to be used for BSS selection.
prev_bssid
previous BSSID, if not NULL use reassociate frame.
This is used to indicate a request to reassociate within the ESS instead of a
request do the initial association with the ESS. When included, this is set to
the BSSID of the current association, i.e., to the value that is included in
the Current AP address field of the Reassociation Request frame.
fils_erp_username
EAP re-authentication protocol (ERP) username part of the
NAI or NULL if not specified. This is used to construct FILS wrapped
data IE.
fils_erp_username_len
Length of fils_erp_username in octets.
fils_erp_realm
EAP re-authentication protocol (ERP) realm part of NAI or
NULL if not specified. This specifies the domain name of ER server and
is used to construct FILS wrapped data IE.
fils_erp_realm_len
Length of fils_erp_realm in octets.
fils_erp_next_seq_num
The next sequence number to use in the FILS ERP messages.
This is also used to construct FILS wrapped data IE.
fils_erp_rrk
ERP re-authentication Root Key (rRK) used to derive
additional keys in FILS or NULL if not specified.
fils_erp_rrk_len
Length of fils_erp_rrk in octets.
want_1x
indicates user-space supports and wants to use 802.1X
driver offload of 4-way handshake.
DESCRIPTION¶
This structure provides information needed to complete IEEE 802.11 authentication and association.
