It relies on a connected Ieee80211Mac for actual // reception and transmission of frames. // // This management module variant does not implement beacons, probes, // authentication and association -- it simply treats all stations // as associated all the time. This also means that you cannot use this // module in a simulation that involves handovers; for that you need // to use the full version, Ieee80211MgmtAP. // // When simulating an AP that has other (Ethernet or wireless) interfaces // as well, this module can be connected to a MACRelayUnit which performs // bridging of Ethernet frames. This module will perform conversion from/to // EtherFrame for MACRelayUnit. // // This module never switches channels, that is, it will operate on the channel // the physical layer is configured for (see channelNumber in Ieee80211Radio). // // @author Andras Varga // simple Ieee80211MgmtAPSimplified parameters: frameCapacity: numeric; gates: in: uppergateIn; // from MACRelayUnit; can be left unconnected out: uppergateOut; // to MACRelayUnit; can be left unconnected in: macIn; // from Ieee80211Mac out: macOut; // to Ieee80211Mac endsimple
