Re: devd wlan wpa
Hi, There is this entry for the network aggregation in the Handbook http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/network-aggregation.html You will be able to switch from wired to wifi card (and vice versa).

devd wlan wpa
Hello :-) I want to setup wpa_supplicant to start after wlan0 interface gets up. The rc.conf ifconfig_wlan0="WPA DHCP" does the job only at boot. When I get the interface down I need to start everything by hand, which is a bit annoying when I test a lot and need to switch between Ethernet and WiFi interfaces very often. I have tried to write devd rule: notify 0 { match "system" "IFNET"; match "subsystem" "wlan[0-9]+"; match "type""LINK_UP"; media-type "802.11"; match "device-name" "wlan[0-9]+"; action "/usr/sbin/wpa_supplicant -i $device-name -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -B"; }; But there goes the chicken-egg problem - I want to run wpa_supplicant on LINK_UP event that occurs when Media Status is "connected", but to get that "connected" status I need to run wpa_supplicant first, so capabilities of devd are not enough in this case, or I miss something? Is there any distinction between LINK_UP and IF_UP? Any hints appreciated :-) Tomek -- CeDeROM, SQ7MHZ, http://www.tomek.cedro.info ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
