The new "bss_load_update_period" parameter can be used to configure
hostapd to advertise its BSS Load element in Beacon and Probe Response
frames. This parameter is in the units of BUs (Beacon Units).
When enabled, the STA Count and the Channel Utilization value will be
updated periodically in the BSS Load element. The AAC is set to 0 sinze
explicit admission control is not supported. Channel Utilization is
calculated based on the channel survey information from the driver and
as such, requires a driver that supports providing that information for
the current operating channel.

This was used to fill in the "PSMP support" subfield that was defined
during P802.11n development. However, this subfield was marked reserved
in the published IEEE Std 802.11n-2009 and it is not supported by
current drivers that use hostapd for SME either. As such, there is not
much point in maintaining this field as ht_capab parameter within
hostapd either.

This allows hostapd to set a different management group cipher than the

Different channels allow different transmission power, at least in ETSI
countries. Also, ETSI requires a "channel plan" for DFS operation, and
channels should be randomly choosen from these channels.

If the RADIUS server includes deauthentication request in Access-Accept,
send a WNM-Notification frame to the station after 4-way handshake and

A new control interface command, WNM_DEAUTH_REQ, is added for testing

This case does not disconnect the station automatically, i.e., a

Add Power Constraint information element to Beacon and Probe Response

element is also added. According to IEEE Std 802.11-2012 a STA shall
determine a local maximum transmit power for the current channel based
on information derived from Country and Power Constraint elements.
In order to add Power Constraint element ieee80211d option need to be

In a AP/STA concurrent setup, if the STA interface is continually
scanning, trying to connect to a network, the AP interface
is basically broken since beaconing would be erratic.
This option can be used in a WDS setup where one AP acts as a
Client/AP-Repeater. The Repeater AP interface has to start beaconing
only after the Client interface has established a WDS link with the
"Root AP".

When using OpenSSL with TLS-based EAP methods, wpa_supplicant can now be
configured to use OCSP stapling (TLS certificate status request) with
ocsp=1 network block parameter. ocsp=2 can be used to require valid OCSP
response before connection is allowed to continue.
hostapd as EAP server can be configured to return cached OCSP response
using the new ocsp_stapling_response parameter and an external mechanism
for updating the response data (e.g., "openssl ocsp ..." command).
This allows wpa_supplicant to verify that the server certificate has not
been revoked as part of the EAP-TLS/PEAP/TTLS/FAST handshake before
actual data connection has been established (i.e., when a CRL could not
be fetched even if a distribution point were specified).

Currently by default, all BSS share the bridge brvlan%d.
While this is sane when no tagged-interface is given, this
is insane when different tagged interfaces are given, as
it would result in bridging those tagged interfaces.
This patch therefore uses br%s%d with %s=tagged_interface
and %d=VLAN ID as bridge name when a tagged-interface is given.

My APs generate their configuration on their own using a different
number of (vlan-enabled) bss. Currently, all my vlan_file files consist
of a single line: the wildcard line. Configuration file generation would
be easier, if the hostapd configuration file would not depend on those
simple vlan_file files.
This patch removes the need for those one-line files by using the
<device>.<vlan> naming scheme if no vlan_file is given (or that file is
empty). This should not break any existing setup, as using dynamic_vlan
with no vlan configured does not make sense anyway.
