i tried understanding the meaning of this MIB from here (as i couldn't find clear definition in the spec): http://tools.cisco.com/Support/SNMP/do/BrowseOID.do?local=en&translate=Translate&objectInput=dot11MulticastTransmittedFrameCount where it seems to be similar (IIUC) to the way i interpreted it, but i might got it wrong :) Eliad. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
