Support AP+STA mode and network isolation #20

Closed mrdis closed 2 years ago

mrdis commented 2 years ago

Hi! Thanks for your great add-on! I spent a little time implementing support for wifi AP+STA mode, and AP network isolation. This is useful for me since my HASS is connected to the home network via wi-fi, but I would like to connect some devices that I don't trust in an isolated internet-connected wi-fi network. With this solution I get this functionality, and maybe others can find it useful too.

With this PR. is possible replicate eth0 ips to wlan0 connected clients, with same network ip? The router will manage the ips o0. I have tried some PR's but no one working :| or I am using wrong :| sorry my worst english

I am also looking for this option. Keep it up.

Hi @mrdis - apologies for the delay in getting to this.

I've made a couple of changes to your branch, looking to test and make a few more changes this week.

The iptables cleanup is good, but if for any reason the function doesn't get called, a duplicate entry will be created when the addon next starts up, which ultimately means, next time cleanup_iptables runs, the single iptables -t nat -D POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE command will only remove one line.

I've done some initial testing and I can remove all applicable entries with:

iptables-save | grep -v "MASQUERADE" | iptables-restore

Feel free to disagree or suggest a better way of doing this!

Merged into https://github.com/mattlongman/Hassio-Access-Point/tree/dev-0.5 to allow for further testing and updates. @mrdis, please feel free to submit further PRs to this branch.
