In other words, I would like to see the groups created in a way that would take differences in power limits into account. Without this, the groups will need to be re-created at some point in the future when IEEE 802.11d and IEEE 802.11h would like to use the same table.. In addition, flag of specifying indoor/outdoor/both would be a nice addition. It would be useful to have a text file with all the information in an easily parseable format. I would like to be able to add a user space tool that uses this file to take care of channel/TX power policies. The needed parameters would then be configured for the kernel side 802.11 whenever needed. -- Jouni Malinen PGP id EFC895FA - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
