(Re-submitting as I needed to subscribe first... ) Thnx for the info. I presume I should then submit my request for proposal within this mailing list? If so here is a bit more details surrounding my use case:
It all started with this really well made documentation that I wished to impleted (dynamic vlan over wifi): https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/wireless.security.8021x The issue I have is that we must provide a brige name suffix for this to work. I was hoping that instead it could be possible to provide a list of bridge names instead. Option could be either using a different parameter or something else? 1- if there is a single parameter to vlan_bridge use it as a suffix or 2- if there are many parameter use the list of bridge names This could also be implemented differently or using a new parameter, what ever fits best (if any). The underlying issue is that otherwise renaming all bridge to br-vlanX totally removes the clarity of the various naming of each interfaces and moves the configuration even farther from out of the box. In my case I have 4 vlans whereas I would pass 3 of them as follow (if feature ever added): option vlan_bridge 'br-lan' 'br-media' 'br-guest' To put more context to it here is an extract of the documentation: ...First, we must name our interfaces in /etc/config/network based on their VLAN such as vlan1 and vlan3. This causes OpenWRT to name the bridges it creates br-vlan1 and br-vlan3. Second, we set the vlan_bridge option in /etc/config/wireless to "br-vlan" and the vlan_naming option to "0" what this does is tell hostapd to create bridges using the br-vlanY naming convention (where Y is the VLAN number).... I'm sure there are more to it which may block such a request but I tought it was worth asking.
