One of the things that has long bugged me has been the need for an an adhoc wifi network to do some configuration beforehand. Being able to scan for a babel enabled channel, responding to a DFS initiated change, and optimizing routes over non-conflicting channels would be nice. I didn't know, until just now, that there was a std way to announce a channel change in the existing apis.

Can I trigget CSA from the AP in some way? You can ask hostapd via hostapd_cli to: chan_switch 5 5180 This will start CSA with CS count=5 to frequency 5180. If you type chan_switch without argument I believe you should get help/usage on the command.
