I want to create an Wireless Interface with a Spezial MAC ans same bssid ind
hostapmode:
If I do
/sbin/ifconfig wlan0 create wlandev urtwn0 wlanaddr 00:24:b2:0e:15:cd -bssid
wlanmode hostap ssid "NZ@McD1" authmode open country DE descr nintendo
/sbin/ifconfig wlan0 up
I get the following:
/sbin/ifconfig wlan0
wlan0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
description: nintendo
ether 00:24:b2:0e:15:cd
groups: wlan
ssid NZ@McD1 channel 9 (2452 MHz 11g) bssid 00:24:b2:0e:15:cd
regdomain ETSI country DE authmode OPEN privacy OFF txpower 30
scanvalid 60 protmode CTS wme dtimperiod 1 -dfs
media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect mode 11g <hostap>
status: running
nd6 options=29<PERFORMNUD,IFDISABLED,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>
Works as expected.
But if i rename the Interface after cretaion:
/sbin/ifconfig wlan0 create wlandev urtwn0 wlanaddr 00:24:b2:0e:15:cd -bssid
wlanmode hostap ssid "NZ@McD1" authmode open country DE descr nintendo
/sbin/ifconfig wlan0 nintendo
/sbin/ifconfig nintendo up
I get the following:
/sbin/ifconfig nintendo
nintendo: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500

as you can see bssid ist not the expected one.
