Openwrt: 2 SSIDs, one control socket

[Ming-Ching Tiew]

The problem of having 2 SSIDs but only one control socket is show on Openwrt running hostpad/wpad ( version v0.8.x ) and here is the sniplet of the hostapd.conf :-

Two SSIDs ( Openwrt2 & Openwrt3 ) are created with network interface wlan0 and wlan1 respectively but only one control socket (wlan0) is created in /var/run/hostapd-phy0 and so can't use hostapd_cli to monitor the events on wlan1.
