Hi,
Since there's been lots of talk about multi-STA or multi-BSSID devices
(more than one client, more than one AP on the same PHY) and I was just
looking into some crypto stuff on bcm43xx, it got me wondering.
The bcm43xx has an elaborate group key matching thingie which will be
useful if it's all WPA2, but if it's say just plain WEP, then that is a
problem since you'd either need to use the same keys or disable the
bcm43xx crypto hardware.
Hence, I suppose the question really is -- does the dscape stack allow
changing the 'sw crypto needed' flag on the fly?
johannes
