I am using FreeBSD -stable. I would like a confirmation that I understood correctly the differences between setting a WEP key with ancontrol and ifconfig. WEP keys: ifconfig: range 1-8, 1-4 temp, 5-8 perm, default is 1 (temp) ancontrol: range 0-7, odd temp, even perm, default is 0 (perm) "default" behaviour is different: ifconfig an0 wepkey thekey1 # set first temp key ancontrol -k thekey1 # set first perm key is this correct? if yes, I think the difference is confusing. I would vote for ancontrol going the ifconfig way, or at least to set as default the first perm key instead of the first perm key. thanks marco To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
