MEMBERS

channel

The channel to use or NULL if not specified (auto-select based on scan results)

bssid

The AP BSSID or NULL if not specified (auto-select based on scan results)

ssid

SSID

ssid_len

Length of ssid in octets

auth_type

Authentication type (algorithm)

ie

IEs for association request

ie_len

Length of assoc_ie in octets

privacy

indicates whether privacy-enabled APs should be used

mfp

indicate whether management frame protection is used

crypto

crypto settings

key

WEP key for shared key authentication

key_len

length of WEP key for shared key authentication

key_idx

index of WEP key for shared key authentication

flags

See enum cfg80211_assoc_req_flags

bg_scan_period

Background scan period in seconds or -1 to indicate that default value is to be used.

ht_capa
