This greatly improves +the wireless experiences in terms of mobility. + +Make sure to enable `ieee80211k` for each VAP neighbor reports should be installed to. + +## Configuring +The uci config name is `static-neighbor-report`. There's currently only the section +type `neighbor`. + +### neighbor +The followign options are supported for `neighbor` sections: + +#### neighbor_report +This is the binary neighbor report element from a foreign AP. It is required for each neighbor. + +#### disabled +Values other than `0` disable the neighbor. It won't be installed into hostapd in this case. +If this option is missing, the neighbor is implicitly active. + +#### bssid +The BSSID of the foreign AP. This option can usually be omitted, as it's implicitly present in +the first 6 bytes of the binary neighbor report element. + +#### ssid +The SSID of the foreign AP. This option can be omitted, in case it matches the SSID used on the local AP. + +#### iface +Space seperated list of hostapd interfaces the neighbor should be installed to. + +## Retrieving neighbor information +To retrieve the neighbor informations of an AP to be isntalled on a foreign AP, make sure the UCI option +`ieee80211k` is set to `1` on the VAP. + +Execute `ubus call hostapd.<ifname> rrm_nr_get_own` on the AP. To get a list of all available interfaces, +execute `ubus list`. + +The returned information follows this format: + +```json +{ + "value": [ + "<BSSID>", + "<SSID>", + "<Neighbot report element>" + ] +} +``` |
