Public bug reported: In wpa_cli:
> help enable_network commands: enable_network <network id> = enable a network That's insufficient. What happens when someone runs “select_network 5” followed at some point by “save config”? It permantly disables all networks except network 5. Users who want to get back to a normal situation where all networks are enabled so that wherever they are a network is automatically select are then left running “enable_network 0”..“enable_network 1”..“enable_network 2”..etc. Pain in the ass. This webpage mentions that there is a special network id “all”: https://w1.fi/wpa_supplicant/devel/ctrl_iface_page.html So after selecting a specific network, one can run “enable_network all” to get back to a normal situation. This possibility should be documented in the enable_network help text as well as the select_network text so those who use select_network are informed on how to reverse their action. ** Affects: wpasupplicant (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1944040 Title: (bad docs) The special network id “all” is undocumented in wpa_cli To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wpasupplicant/+bug/1944040/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
