Dear Colleagues,

I would like to run multiple instances of hostapd, each per a wlanX
interface. I see some provisions for multiple instances inside the
/etc/rc.d/hostapd file, but cannot grok the correct rc.conf syntax
instead of just hostapd_enable="YES" for a single instance.

I don't see it documented anywhere either.

Thank you for any input.
