I don’t ifconfig doesn't support dhcp either, but dhclient is run via "DHCP" in `ficonfig_<foo>` > understand why it was done this way instead of just creating additional > variables for `hostapd_<foo>` Long time ago there was simple `hostapd_enable` and `hostapd_interfaces` :) But it doesn't allow to automagically start hostapd for hotplugged (i.e. USB) interfaces. On the other hand, automatic DHCP on hot-plugged interfaces have sense and automatic hostapd doesn't, IMHO. -- Best regards, Lev mailto:l...@freebsd.org _______________________________________________ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
