Hello Adrian and FreeBSD friends,

Great news, I cannot wait till stable/11 is out. Thank you for all your 
effort.

Maybe it is not related, maybe it is. I tried to use an Atheros AR938x 
card in AP mode on FreeBSD 10.3, r302295 and 11.0, r297415 for quite some

O.K., next try in understanding of VAP. My FreeBSD 10.2 Server has several 
network interfaces:

ath0
bge0
wlan0
vlan2
bridge2

So what you call a VAP is actually expressed by wlan0, which is a virtual 
interface stacked on a physical interface, namely ath0 in this case.

vlan2 is a different interface, but also virtual and stacked on bge0. Its 
purpose is to have a tagged network. Several vlan2 interfaces might be 
combined to a network by switches, that understand vlan and are physically 
connected to bge0. This enables several networks running through the same 
switches.  Is this correct? vlan cannot be directly stacked onto ath0, 
since this would not make sense.

The bridge2 glues all together and ensures that the vlan2 network is 
extended to a wireless endpoint. Is this correct?

I'm not sure what to do with the info provided by your recommendation to 
have a look to edge / stp.

man ifconfig => check for edge / stp 

What is this looping about?

I also don't understand how you get your bridges working, if you do not 
assign IP addresses. 

The info you gave at point 3) is a bit overwhelming. I just picked the 
following:

`` ... where a push the configs from the router to the ap’s''
``.. - ip addresses ''. 

So, do I understand correctly that you push the IP addresses to the APs at 
a later stage.

I'm planning to ``build'' wireless access points myself. I would love to 
run them on nanobsd. I prefer to have several networks at the end:

- admin net1
- gebruikers net2
- gasten net3

Basically the same as you provide in your NetworkSetup_AP. I imagine to 
tune a firewall such that the networks (i.e. net1, net2, and net3) are 
separated. So that the users (gebruikers) can use the services of an 
available server and the guests (gasten) can only use (a limited amount of) 
the internet and no access or only limited access to the server.

Would this be possible with your approach?

If yes, could you help me to do this project step by step.

If yes, probably I need to order the appropriate hardware. Can you be more 
specific about the hardware you were using?

-Alix board? Which one?
-The board needs to be in a case at the end. Which case?
-Which wireless network adapters?
etc.

I might consider to write a detailed manual on this project. This would 
certainly help other people in developing such infrastructure.

Maybe I have missed the previous e-mails, but could you provide some 
context to your project on makerspaceleiden? I would be highly interested.  
What is ``Alix board'' you are referring to in your text?

multiple ssid with hostap

2015-10-16 Thread Willem Offermans 
Dear FreeBSD friends,

To enable multiple SSIDs by hostapd, I needed to do the following:

1) add to rc.conf:
wlans_ath0="wlan0 wlan1 ..."
create_args_wlan0="wlanmode hostap"
create_args_wlan1="wlanmode hostap"
...
ifconfig_wlan0="inet 192.168.x.y netmask 255.255.255.0 ssid Wifi0 mode 
11ng channel 1"
ifconfig_wlan1="inet 192.168.a.b netmask 255.255.255.0 ssid Wifi1 mode 
11ng channel 7" 
...

2) create the following files:

/etc/hostapd-wlan0.conf
/etc/hostapd-wlan1.conf

look for documentation to setup above configuration files, for
example:
http://w1.fi/cgit/hostap/plain/hostapd/hostapd.conf
man hostapd.conf

3) change /etc/rc.d/hostapd by adding:

conf_file="/etc/${name}-wlan0.conf /etc/${name}-wlan1.conf"

Do this BEFORE the following line in /etc/rc.d/hostapd

command_args="-P ${pidfile} -B ${conf_file}" in the file


First of all, this procedure is not well documented.
``man hostapd'' does not explain the possibility of multiple config files.
Can this be changed?

Secondly, I don't like the hack in /etc/rc.d/hostapd. Can we change
/etc/rc.d/hostapd in a way that /etc/hostapd-wlan0.conf and
/etc/hostapd-wlan1.conf are searched for and automagically added in
${conf_file}"?

Out of ``man rc.conf'':


`` On the other hand, if you want to configure your wireless 
interface with 
 hostapd(8), you need to add ``HOSTAP'' to the 
ifconfig_ variable.  
 hostapd(8) will use the settings from 
/etc/hostapd-.conf''

I don't think that this is totally correct. /etc/hostapd-.conf
will not be used without a change to /etc/rc.d/hostapd.

Re: hostapd + freeradius can't connect

2015-05-21 Thread Willem Offermans 
Dear FreeBSD friends,

Sorry to interrupt here, but I got triggered by this e-mail thread.

Do I understand correctly that it is possible to connect hostapd with
FreeRadius and OpenLDAP? Would it be possible to do the authentication of
wireless access over the ldap server? If yes, do I need FreeRadius to
intermediate between hostapd and OpenLDAP? 

Is there some documentation around to setup hostapd + OpenLDAP or hostapd +
FreeRadius + OpenLDAP under FreeBSD?

Sorry, to interrp

 Hi,

 Yes.
 
 I got it working in April 2012 on FreeBSD 8 and 9. I've used a
 FreeRadius server and a FreeBSD client with wpa_supplicant to test
 it.
 
 At that stage you had to enable the eap_server when you compile hostapd
 
 # echo HOSTAPD_CFLAGS+=-DEAP_SERVER  /etc/src.conf
 # cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/wpa/hostapd
 # make
 # make install
 
 but Bernhard Schmidt fixed it so that EAP_SERVER was enabled by default.
 
 
 Here is the configs that I used:
 
 rc.conf
 hostname=AP-vlan
 wlans_ath0=wlan0
 create_args_wlan0=wlanmode hostap country ZA
 ifconfig_wlan0=146.64.5.5/24 mode 11g channel 6
 defaultrouter=146.64.5.1
 hostapd_enable=YES
 cloned_interfaces=bridge0
 ifconfig_bridge0=addm sis0 addm wlan0 up
 ifconfig_sis0=up
 
 
 hostapd.conf
 interface=wlan0
 ctrl_interface=/var/run/hostapd
 ctrl_interface_group=wheel
 ssid=testAP
 hw_mode=g
 channel=6
 
 wpa=1
 wpa_pairwise=CCMP TKIP
 wpa_key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
 wpa_pairwise=TKIP CCMP
 rsn_pairwise=CCMP
 
 Hope it helps

captive portal recommendation

2015-05-13 Thread Willem Offermans 
Dear FreeBSD friends,

I like to install a ``captive portal'' system
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captive_portal) on my running FreeBSD
server. I like to connect possible authentication with a ticket system,
where possible users need to obtain a ticket for web access. The ticket 
should be valid for a limited amount of time.

Can anyone recommend such a system?
