Hi,<br><br>I'm also interested in developing IEEE 802.11i in IBSS mode, but I didn't find the test_wpa.c file in tests directory. Maybe the file is eapol_test.c, isn't it?<br><br>Thanks a lot.<br><br>Stefano Paris<br><br><b><i>Jouni Malinen <jkmaline@cc.hut.fi></i></b> ha scritto:<blockquote class="replbq" style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"> On Wed, Dec 27, 2006 at 09:20:24PM +0100, Benoit PAPILLAULT wrote:<br><br>> Jouni : since you are the most experienced on this subject, what effort <br>> would be involved in implementing 802.11i in IBSS mode?
