Hi,

Open11s developers said it's already supported the Mesh peer link
establishment. But I can't find any code for mesh point to send
beacons. How come the mesh point establish a peer link without
beacons.

That you did not find the code does not necessarily means it is not
there ;-). Check out net/mac80211/tx.c:ieee80211_beacon_get()

I assume you are looking at wireless-testing.

Cheers!

Hi,

Thanks very much. Actually, I found ieee80211_beacon_get already. But
the problem I met now is that the ath5k driver doesn't work well with
mac80211 to send beacons. Open11s developers use different devices and
different driver to support mesh point sending beacons.
