Hi Thanks for reply Mr. chunyeow in https://github.com/o11s/open80211s/wiki/HOWTO they not provided how to configure mesh access point. they only provided to create mesh gate.

let me explain my problem more clearly, we have a created a mess network of 5 devices. now we have to connect a 802.11 device to this mess network. unfortunately we have two create two wlan interface on mess access point. one interface for mesh network and second one for creating a Access point so that a 802.11 enabled device can connect mesh network.

please tell me how to create that connectivity between 802.11 interface and 802.11s interface.

[chunyeow]

You can bridge the mesh interface and AP interface as L2 switch.

hi Chunyeow thanks for reply

hey i am new with network please tell me how to configure AP using wpa_supplicant and hostapd . or where i could find a way to create AP that can bridge with mesh interface

[chunyeow]

Refer the following to figure out:

https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/drivers/ath10k/mesh https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/mesh.80211s https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/documentation/hostapd

You can use wpa_supp to create mesh interface then bridge with AP created by hostapd.

Re-read the mesh gate section on https://github.com/o11s/open80211s/wiki/HOWTO. You can replace the Ethernet interface with your virtual access point. Both hostapd and wpa_supp should allow you to bridge to your intended bridge interface.

hiii when i am trying to create mesh network through wpa_supp this error comes wpa.conf file contain ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant ctrl_interface_group=adm

mpm on userspace

user_mpm=1

open mesh network

network={ ssid="ABCD"
mode=5
frequency=2432 key_mgmt=NONE
}

root@vippi:/# wpa_supplicant -Dnl80211 -imesh0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf Successfully initialized wpa_supplicant Line 5: unknown global field 'user_mpm=1'. Line 5: Invalid configuration line 'user_mpm=1'. Line 10: too large mode (value=5 max_value=4) Line 10: failed to parse mode '5'. Line 13: failed to parse network block. Failed to read or parse configuration '/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf'.

[chunyeow]

Check out the latest wpa_supp and use the default config file in the wpa_supplicant folder as your reference. For bridging, don't forget the "-b" while running the wpa_supp. You can check with "-h" to display the help text.

i have created AP using hostapd and mesh interface in a laptop using usb wifi adaptor to creating AP. but at a time only mesh connectivity or AP connectivity work.

[vipinneemamnit]

Hi chunyeow

In processor of creating mesh access point .

mesh point wpa_supplicant\

• bridge br0 using brctl AP using hostapd /

this configuration work when mesh interface bridge with Ethernet interface. In case of two wireless interface nothing happen. please help me about it.

[chunyeow]

When you said that you have bridged both mesh interface and ap interface, it is not working. Can you confirm both mesh beaconing and AP beaconing working?

BTW, what WiFi chipset are you using?

i am using AR9485 wireless network Adaptor and TL-WN722N USB wireless adaptor.

[vipinneemamnit]

Hi chunyeow thank you for reply i just thought about can two wireless card in a system work together simultaneously?

[chunyeow]

You have two wireless card: one for mesh and one for AP, am I right? I don't see any problem for them bridging them together.

What driver that your wireless cards using?

for USB TL-WN722N ----> ath9k_htc driver version 4.4.0.53 for AR9485 wireless Network Adapter ath9k driver version 4.4.0.53

[chunyeow]

I don't see any issue that bridging both together. Are you able to bring up an monitor interface and check whether the beaconing is working?
