Values

Enum Value Description

INFRA_NON_AP

 Station (non-AP) infrastructure mode. The station device connects to an AccessPoint to participate in the Wireless LAN.

IBSS

 The Ad-Hoc (BSS) mode is used to create a wireless network without the need of having a Master Access Point in the network. Each station in an IBSS network is managing the network itself. Ad-Hoc is useful for connecting two or more computers to each other when no (useful) AP is around for this purpose.

UNKNOWN

 Mode is not available or not recognized.

INFRA_AP

 An AccessPoint acts as the Master device in a managed wireless network. It holds the network together by managing and maintaining lists of associated Stations. It also manages security policies. The network is named after the MAC-Address (BSSID) of the AP. The human readable name for the network, the SSID, is also set by the AP.

MONITOR

 Monitor mode allows a device to listen to all wireless traffic without being associated with an AP.

AP_VLAN

 AP VLAN mode allows an access point to create virtual LANs for different wireless networks.

WDS

 Wireless Distribution System mode allows APs to connect to each other wirelessly.

MESH
