Wireless events (AP out of range, etc.)

Nov 07, 2006 0 Replies

Hello,



I wonder if anybody knows what is the easiest way for an application program to receive notice of certain fairly basic WLAN-related events, such as when an access point goes out of range, association changes, connections/disconnections, etc.



Basically the same stuff that you can (or *should* be able to) see through the iwevent(8) command line tool.



I've found mention of rtnetlink, IFLA_WIRELESS and such things but it sounds quite complicated.
