IEEE80211_IOCTL(9)	 BSD Kernel Developer's Manual	    IEEE80211_IOCTL(9)

NAME
     ieee80211_cfgget, ieee80211_cfgset, ieee80211_ioctl — 802.11 interface
     ioctl commands

SYNOPSIS
     #include <net80211/ieee80211_var.h>
     #include <net80211/ieee80211_proto.h>
     #include <net80211/ieee80211_ioctl.h>

     int
     ieee80211_cfgget(struct ieee80211com *ic, u_long cmd, void *data);

     int
     ieee80211_cfgset(struct ieee80211com *ic, u_long cmd, void *data);

     int
     ieee80211_ioctl(struct ieee80211com *ic, u_long cmd, void *data);

DESCRIPTION
     These functions are typically invoked by drivers in response to requests
     for information or to change settings from the userland.

     The ieee80211_cfgget() and ieee80211_cfgset() functions implement a
     legacy interface for getting and setting 802.11 interface attributes
     respectively.  The interface is compatible with the RIDs implemented by
     the wi(4) driver and used by the wiconfig(8) utility.

     The ieee80211_ioctl() function implements ioctls such as key management
     for wireless devices.  Ioctls related to the Ethernet layer also pass
     through here, but are handed off to ether_ioctl() when no match for cmd
     is found.

SEE ALSO
     wi(4), ifconfig(8), wiconfig(8), ieee80211(9)

HISTORY
     The ieee80211 series of functions first appeared in NetBSD 1.5, and were
     later ported to FreeBSD 4.6.
