This is why hostapd will always use a mask that ends with the bits you want and basically requires that you reserve the full MAC address space for all matching BSSIDs to that station. I.E. hostapd will set the mask to 0x3 (or is it ~0x3? you know what I mean) if you have three or four BSSIDs and if you only have three it is assumed that the fourth is unused. johannes --=-/pEdNlP7PQ36fZQ6qiPA Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Comment: Johannes Berg (powerbook) iQIVAwUARwvfC6Vg1VMiehFYAQIOXhAAvICtBtgs9FKp7Jzi4kZvKw22Zb8pS8gD Y2kq7RO96TGlVxB77PeP9z7dDQZiDaqxCfGCId/HS/hn0yVigyVsEMUHmOhJrFWD avTrGyQn0z0pj6EdMkPU9IJCd00QXSxYNlkLpyJLFcuvft3IBpeWph4mt1VHFmRZ RnkjYbJphOQ/BCxaYtXmYBKF9cH0H3uTrInqgZJtbTgsZc99WEjAWi1kLfAaOrd5 c+4Hlt7Fe13D6JqkYJ1H2/ZHwZYDs4LxsL0wOi3Rwc0P875CAMpYsYeC9epWexJ3 r9Xe8r4tkb/0kaYB2GrdlREDIPZ/AYqao59P772TqZG22Etvk8Mb2y3HgbnNnYWQ XZCIQwTBWxxRPgVkF6m/Lzt6096x/wevE8n5gEQ/RVxKpsv4sp8R6/C9NQQXHfFm 3cP24kSx4vAVGIJ+KBrX0/lAAI8neigLDk0i2DuJfjhA/bqETiNuWDZ4iDOxzXIL HCkwWFDPKylpcn6Qk2/EhPZsQj6cvTvG2dEIsNpdhGGrBGY1hEcekluIXnyKPOwr Q8XaXWwWPKp+ERQyvlSMY0im6IgFm/blxmAx235tCpu1BwhBzT6C7MOjQVwt7eno PbSrQ09YYmFzQQm4C4QNl+KnuIK0FMNpMrcW2/5wukjApVDJD+zzSN7THzLj+ta5 NW2IXcejEXw= =xjS0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-/pEdNlP7PQ36fZQ6qiPA--
