This release adds support for authenticated mesh networks (using SAE) by extending nl80211, mac80211, wpa_supplicant and the SAE reference implementation written by Dan Harkins.
- "open80211s":http://o11s.org/trac/browse?p=open80211s.git;a=commitdiff;h=331c972eca8b0594699ca49f8ee5b3db22e4ce9d
- "modified wpa_supplicant":https://github.com/cozybit/hostap-sae.
- "HOWTO 0.3.0":/cozybit/open80211s/wiki/wiki:HOWTO-0.3.0
- nl80211 can notify userspace of new peer candidates.
- Similarly, mesh IEs can now flow between kernel and userspace.
- wpa_supplicant authenticates peer candidates and manages the lifetime of peer stations in the kernel
- Note that this release only adds support for authentication, not encryption. This feature is scheduled for a future release.
