Members

bss

The BSS to authenticate with, the callee must obtain a reference to it if it needs to keep it.

ie

Extra IEs to add to Authentication frame or NULL

ie_len

Length of ie buffer in octets

auth_type

Authentication type (algorithm)

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

auth_data

Fields and elements in Authentication frames. This contains the authentication frame body (non-IE and IE data), excluding the Authentication algorithm number, i.e., starting at the Authentication transaction sequence number field.

auth_data_len

Length of auth_data buffer in octets

Description

This structure provides information needed to complete IEEE 802.11 authentication.
