2005-03-06 Jan Rafaj
        Since one of the users has provided me with SmartBridges APPO,
        the support for latest APPO firmware (1.4k5) can now hopefully
        be finished as originally intended.
        * TODO: updated
        * Documentation/FAQ: updated
        * ap-gl/Makefile.am:
          - bugfix: added missing @CURSESLIBS@ to the target
        * lib/ap-utils.h:
          - Q_HELP is gone
          - added dbmconv() macro to correctly handle dBm computing for
            smartBridges firmware
        * lib/ap_search.c:
          - 'Wireless' OID is really 'sysDescr' OID
          - no longer ask for community, since device will respond to
            sysDescr query no matter what community is currently being used
            (Roman, thanks for notifying!)
          - bugfix: 'AP NAME' changed to 'FW TYPE (VERSION) AP NAME', to
            reflect better whats being displayed
          - bugfix: scan_local_segment() now triggers screen-width truncation
            limit correctly
        * lib/common.c:
          - cosmetics: screen is now properly cleared with exit_program()
        * lib/input.c:
          - bugfix: exclusive use of getch() in wait_key() instead of
            escape-sequences-not-aware getc() results in greater robustness
            of input code (it is now a lot harder to end up with buffered
            content in stdin, that would otherwise lead to odd results
            elsewhere)
          - get_value() almost completely rewritten. switched from getchar()
            to getch() to get correct output on older terminals, as well as
            to avoid displaying of escape-sequences and to interpret escape-
            sequences for the following usual keys, that now work:
            INSERT (toggles Insert/Overwrite mode)
            DELETE (rightside delete)
            BACKSPACE (leftside delete)
            LEFT ARROW (move cursor back 1 character)
            RIGHT ARROW (advance cursor forward 1 character)
            HOME (move to the beginning of the string)
            END (move to the end of the string)
          - bugfix: get_value() will now omit leading zeros from correct number
            given by the user (they will be eaten upon user's ENTER keypress)
          - bugfix: in get_mask(), trans_count must be always reset upon
            failure to validate user input, or after single failure, all
            subsequent attempts would (previously) fail
        * lib/oui.c: added OUIs:
          - 000E2E (Edimax Technology Co., Ltd.)
          - 000F66 (Cisco-Linksys)
          - 00117C (e-zy.net) :)
        * lib/set_oeminfo.c:
          - prepended 'USB ' in front of 'Vendor ID' and 'Product ID'
            (cosmetic)
        * lib/snmp.c:
          - bugfix: eliminated leak by unfreed malloc'ed memory in snmp() using
            static buffer
          - introduced three new functions: close_sockfd(), open_sockfd()
            and reopen_sockfd(). They should really be in common.c, but then
            again, they are low-level stuff that should primarily be used
            only in snmp(), and snmp.c itself contains no ncurses stuff
            so functions it defines can be reused by external non-ncurses-
          - in snmp(), switched from sig*jmp()/alarm() timeout code to select()
            in favor of simplicity and possibility to monitor stdin read-state
            change at the same time
          - snmp() will now return with 0 immediately upon keypress, if
            snmp_quit_by_keypress = 1 and type = GET. This has been added
            to allow user-requested last-resort quit from blocking state
            (for example when the target AP does not respond). The decision
            of what to do is up to the calling code, that has to check
            stdin content and act accordingly (currently this is used for
            immediate quit using q/Q key from otherwise blocking snmp() calls).
          - sockfd is now globally defined here
          - snmp() now always 'flushes' sockfd prior further network processing
            so that eventual packet received on sockfd prior snmp() call
            wont cause desync errors
          - snmp_retries global is gone. We need to wait at least 1 second
            past sendto() for response packet, and do everything necessary
            to avoid 'response for previous request received in next snmp()
            call' => extra TODO: check, whether the OID part of received packet
            matches with OID of preceding request, and if not, flush sockfd
            and do an extra retry of sendto()/recv()
            dependant programs.
        * Documentation/ap-tftp.8:
          - (introduced in previous patchset)
          - added warning that it is unsafe to try upgrading devices for whose
            there's no vendor firmware nor upgrade utilities (such as
            Tellus A13 a.k.a. i-Tec AP GOLD with blue front)
        * src/Makefile.am:
          - ap-tftp needs to be linked to libap.a from now on
        * src/ap-tftp.c:
          - bugfix: computation of percentage was not really correct in v1.0
          - bugfix: fixed memleak caused by unfreed strdup()
          - cleanup; use of float type eliminated
          - it should be now possible to reuse tftp() for .cfg upload, too
            (.cfg upload code still not there)
          - revamp of config. parameters
          - added capability to upgrade all AT76C510-based SmartBridges
            devices (those with FCC ID 'PWG DOLPHIN')
        * src/aplink.c:
          - polling mode is now always enforced
          - LQ top value is now computed/shown for devices with ATMEL410
            SBRIDGES MIB
          - bugfix: screen is now correctly cleaned up upon transition
            from 'associated: yes' to 'associated: no' state
          - added pause possibility (using 'q' or 'Q' key)
          - big facelift: added RSSI 'rounding' (a.k.a. RSSI average / last
            20 samples) gauge, and a general side-scrolling bargraph
            showing the history of RSSI, RSSI average, RSSI rounding, and,
            in case of smartBridges firmware, also Link Quality. Views
            can be toggled using 't' or 'T' key. At the moment, all values
            are presented in percentage, since this (compared to dBm)
            does not fluctuate a lot among different firmware versions.
            User may just pause the polling process and see the corresponding
            dBm value for the bar currently shown in graph, near the
            corresponding gauge.
        * src/auth.c:
          - bugfixes: shown ea_dest_port, ea_time and ea_port values are now
            properly decoded
        * src/bridge.c:
          - renamed cf_trap_ports to cf_ports (cosmetic)
          - bugfix: fixed up order of cf_ports to respect MIB-defined order.
            Interresting note: ATMEL12350 EZYNET MIB firmware actually
            returns config_port = 0 when it should return 3 ('Both' ports) =>
            this case is now taken care of.
        * lib/common.c:
          - screen is now cleared upon exiting ap-config
        * bugfix: fixed rare ap-config crash when sysDeviceInfo OID query
          would return structure length of 92 bytes instead of 128. Suspection:
          returning 128 might be a snmp() state machinery error?
        * squashed any sockfd lowlevel-manipulating stuff (socket(), bind(),
          close()) everywhere in favour of already globally declared sockfd
          in snmp.c and eventual reopen_sockfd() call. Lets forget about
          sockfd if we use just snmp(). TODO: re-evaluate necessity to use
          reopen_sockfd() in common.c and file.c .
        * dbmconv() is now used in every place that handles raw->dBm
          conversion - TODO: just the ap_mrtg needs to be fixed (add
          detection for SBRIDGES ap_vendorext, then dbmconv())
        * cosmetics: highlighting over changed values will now disappear,
          once they are written (using 'W' key)
        * ERR_CREATING_SOCKET and ERR_BINDING_SOCKET replaced with one single,
          more generic ERR_SOCKET
        * new feature: it is now possible to change polling interval in
          range from <0,1;86400> seconds (default is 1 second)

        * ap-gl/auth.c: small bugfix

2005-01-15 Roman Festchook
        * src/ap-rrd.c: added utility to store stats from AP into RRD database
        * src/wlan.c: added 'ACK timeout' additional info into [T] SIFS time (msec)
                option description
        * configure.in, NEWS: version 1.5pre2

2005-01-11 Jan Rafaj
        Note to SmartBridges PTE: you could have nice support in ap-utils
        at cost of sending me one APPO sample. Since I actually have
        no sample to test & verify on, all my support for airPoints is on
        blind or 'someones trial and error report' basis. You should really
        support OSS developers better way. Info about how to reliably load
        airPoint PRO firmware to non-SB brand devices, based on the same HW
        ref. design, would of course help too.

        NOTE TO ALL USERS: IF YOU HAVE SMARTBRIDGES airPoint PRO (indoor or
        outdoor) AND WANT BETTER AP-UTILS SUPPORT, YOU CAN SEND ME ONE SAMPLE
        OF THIS DEVICE. OTHERWISE THERE WILL APPARENTLY BE _INCOMPLETE_ SUPPORT
        EVEN IN FUTURE! THE LAST APPO I I'VE SEEN IN BAZAAR THAT I WAS PLANNING
        TO GET IN ORDER TO IMPROVE SUPPORT IN AP-UTILS, HAS BEEN JUST SOLD
        OUT, SO MY PLANS ARE GONE. I'M NOT WILLING TO PAY LIKE $350
        FOR ONE SAMPLE JUST TO SUPPORT THE WORLD. SO UNTIL SOMEONE SUPPORTS
        ME WITH SAMPLE DEVICE TO TEST ON, MY SUPPORT FOR SmartBridges
        APPO in AP-UTILS IS _OVER_ (and this round of patches is apparently
        the last effort to improve support in this area).
        I'LL ALSO ACCEPT ANY DEVICE THAT USES THE SAME FIRMWARE / MIB
        AS SMARTBRIDGES airPoint PRO.

        You can contact me about the subjects above via e-mail at
        <jr-aputils at cedric dot unob dot cz>.

        Dedicated to memory of cat Micka, my pet.
        * EZYNET-enhanced AP firmware is now freely available! Read more about
          its availability, upgrade possibilities and caveats in README,
          section 'Firmware available free of charge for ATMEL12350 MIB
          devices' !!!
        * renamed all references of 'VERNET' to 'EZYNET' (true vendor name)
        * renamed all references of 'TELLUS' to 'GEMTEK' (Tellus, SparkLan,
          etc. appear to be GemTek subsidiaries or at least they seem to use
          firmware from GemTek. If someone knows I'm wrong with this
          conclusion, please let me know).
        * note: my primary focus is on support for devices running firmware
          0.2.x.x, equipped with flash memory AT29LV040A (TSOP1), and
          second SRAM, such as Tellus A14, SparkLan WX-1590L, etc.
          Easy way of how to tell that the device has second SRAM, is
          presence of (poor, locky) web management interface. Older devices
          with single SRAM may be supported too, but my older test equipment
          is restricted to W-Link WEN2021 and I-TEC AP GOLD / blue, which means
          that support for other old ATMEL flavours may or may not work,
          despite all effort towards supporting them.
        * README:
          - added entries for supported APs: i-Tec AP GOLD (black front),
            InterEpoch IWE1000A, OSBRiDGE m2410/p2410, SparkLAN WX-1590,
            SparkLAN WX-1590L, D-com WX-1590 web, BOSSWAP
          - the supported AP table is now sorted according to manufacturer name
          - added section 'Firmware available free of charge for ATMEL12350 MIB
            devices'
          - made WARNING notices more accurate
        * THANKS:
          - added entry with thanks to EZYNET
        * Makefile.am:
          - reordered directory components so that 'intl' and 'po' will be
            built as last ones. This helps on systems with old/broken auto*
            tools, where building 'po' may fail (it still will do, but its
            failure now wont prevent building other components).
        * Documentation/mibs-atmel:
          - created & populated with all AT76C510 MIB prototypes that should
            be supported by ap-utils
        * ap-gl/ap-gl.c, ap-gl/stations.c:
          - backport of few changes from respective counterparts in src/,
            to stay compatible with changed color scheme definitions
            and format of 'Stations' output (btw, there is now no difference!)
        * ap-gl/auth.c:
          - backported few non-invasive changes from auth.c
        * lib/ap-utils.h:
          - added DONE_WRITING_APCONF & ERR_WRITING_APCONF, since they are
            now referred from connect_options() as well as get_opts()
          - added new structs AssociatedSTAsInfo_ATMEL410,
            AssociatedSTAsInfo_ATMEL12350, NetworkSettings_ATMEL410_SBRIDGES
            and NetworkSettings_ATMEL12350_EZYNET in favour of unified support
            across most available vendor-enhanced MIBs
        * lib/common.c:
          - connect_options() is now verbose about status of writing
            ~/.ap-config file, through DONE_WRITING_APCONF & ERR_WRITING_APCONF
          - bugfix: fixed ap_vendorexts[ap_type][] boundary check error;
            no more segfaults when manually specifying MIB type as "ATMEL12350"
          - bugfix: get_mib_details() no longer relies on OUI part of device's
            eth. MAC address as authoritative info for MIB vendor extension
            determination. This was 1. giving totally fake results
            if someone changed device's MAC, and 2. giving false results
            for people with devices whose firmware has had certain MIB vendor
            extensions available (for example SparkLan users with GEMTEK
            firmware). Autodetection should now work for much broader range
            of devices with AP firmware.
        * lib/file.c:
          - added functionality for HOME, END, PGUP and PGDN keys
        * lib/input.c:
          - bugfix: in get_value(), use wmove()/wrefresh() instead of wechochar
            with 0x08 char. (backspace) as parameter - this fixes visual effect
            of disrespecting leftmost bound on platforms with older ncurses
          - bugfix: get_mac() now forces user to specify all 12 numbers of MAC,
            avoiding ambiguous results
        * lib/menu.c:
          - squeezed the number of wrefresh(menu) calls to a minimum
          - mark and highlighting of current menu item are now
            cleared/restored upon entering/leaving atmel_set_oeminfo()
        * lib/oui.c: added OUIs:
          - 000F3D (D-Link Corporation)
          - 00112F (ASUSTek Computer Inc.)
        * lib/scr.c:
          - simplified & unified 'Stations' menu output section in
            scroll_rows() - it is now used for all ATMEL AP types.
            Part separately dealing with APs using SmartBridges firmware
            has been eliminated.
          - shorten screen output of print_top_rssi()
          - bugfix: in scroll_rows(), clear_main(3) changed to
            clear_main(row), to make the first-row offset of scroll list
            really configurable (required by auth.c)
        * lib/set_community.c:
          - left boundaries of community fields now start at offset 37
        * lib/set_oeminfo.c:
          - now also shows board VID & PID
          - added possibility to configure # of calibrated channels
          Reached 100% compatibility with original utility.
        * lib/snmp.c:
          - removed RETRIES constant. Instead, snmp_retries now keeps
            the default amount of retries. This was somewhat necessary,
            as we may eventually influence amount of retries one snmp() call
            will attempt, in src/aplink.c
        * lib/test.c:
          - since test() is not yet ATMEL12350-ready, temporary kludge
            has been added to disable this menu for devices with
            such a MIB
        * lib/wlan.c:
          - bugfix: fix utility crash, that could previously happen if
            someone changed value of Fragm. threshold from default to
            value < length of typical expected SNMP response packet,
            on device managed with ap-config via wireless port.
            The return value of snmp() is now checked against the number
            of varbinds members entering snmp() (it covers return value
            <= 0 as well).
            NOTE: IT IS _VERY_ UNWISE AND RISKY TO CHANGE 'RTS threshold'
            AND 'Fragmentation threshold' VALUES ON DEVICE MANAGED VIA
            WIRELESS PORT, SINCE THEY HAVE DIRECT IMPACT ON PACKETS TRANSMITTED
            VIA WIRELESS PORT, AND IF THE VALUE IS BEHIND CERTAIN THRESHOLD,
            THE DEVICE MAY BECOME COMPLETELY _UNMANAGEABLE_ VIA WIRELESS PORT.
            If this happens and you have management access to the device
            via wireless port only, you may try your favourite *-snmp tools to
            restore RTS threshold and Frag. threshold settings to their
            default value (2346), but if this fails, the only real way left
            to fix these values would be through ethernet or USB port. Beware!
        * lib/set_oeminfo.c, lib/sysinfo.c, lib/wlan.c:
          - bugfix: changed assumption about selection of proper length
            sysDeviceInfo OID - this cant be distinguished based on ATMEL MIB
            type, since, for example, NETGEAR ME102 MIB has ATMEL12350 MIB, but
            has length of this structure 128 bytes (which most ATMEL410 MIB
            equipped devices have). Now the proper structure is selected
            based purely on length of response returned on SysDeviceInfo
            SNMP query - should 'fix' all places that deal with values
            generated by query to SysDeviceInfo OID
        * src/aplink.c:
          - newly introduced. Embeds atmel_aplink(), which is bound
            to 'AP link' entry in the 'Info' menu. This entry allows to
            monitor link state of the device in APclient or WRepeater mode.
            It will inform user whether the APclient device is actually
            associated to the AP or not, and if yes, what is the RSSI level of
            the link (as well as Link Quality in case of device with
            SmartBridges firmware, or actual connection speed in case of device
            with EZYNET firmware), MAC of joined BSSID, ESSID, and used
            RF channel.
            RSSI top value per entire measurement session is also available.
            Since the RSSI indication may be somewhat unstable (at least
            with EZYNET firmware), showing of RSSI average from up to
            99999 samples has also been implemented.
            Note that the code will currently only work for ATMEL410 / SBRIDGES
            or ATMEL12350 / EZYNET MIB devices, as MIBs of firmware from
            other vendors does not seem to support NetworkSettings OID.
            Exception is ATMEL12350 / NONE (NetGear ME102), whose APCLientInfo
            OID is capable to give connection status too, but is not currently
            implemented, since it uses different OID & structure and I do not
            possess ME102 board to test with (TODO).
        * src/ap-auth.c:
          - hardened input validation for the '-i <ip>' parameter (according to
            get_ip() in lib/input.c)
          - added AP MIB type autodetection => utility will now also work
            for devices with ATMEL12350 MIB. Devices with NWN MIB are yet
            to be supported (TODO).
          - assigned credits to Teemu
        * src/ap-config.c:
          - added definitions for several 'should be defined by default' color
            pairs, that are actually used in bargraph code of aplink.c .
            Previous pairs 1,2,3,4 were redefined to 11,12,13,14 to avoid
            clash with 'standard' color pairs above. This change has been
            propagated to all files dealing with color pairs.
        * src/ap-mrtg.c:
          - the same level of changes as in src/ap-auth.c. As side result,
            it is no longer needed to specify AP MIB type (it will be
            autodetected).
          - bugfix: take into account different length of wirelessStatistics
            structure in ATMEL12350 MIB & EZYNET extensions => '-t w'
            will now also work for devices with this MIB & extensions.
          - bugfix: restrict the '-t l' to ATMEL410 MIB devices in APClient
            mode (ATMEL12350 MIB devices usually do not return any LinkQuality
            indicators in wirelessKnownAPs structure).
        * src/ap-tftp.c:
          - introduced tftp client for upgrading ATMEL-based AP firmware.
            Should work with boards utilising either 1.4x.y firmware (generally
            AT76C510+INTERSIL boards, such as D-Link 1150, W-Link WEN-2021,
            SmartBridges APPO, etc.), and boards utilising 0.x.y.z firmware
            (generally AT76C510+RFMD boards, such as Tellus A14, Sparklan
            WX-1590L, NetGear ME-102, OSBRiDGE p2410/m2410, etc.).
            Use with care and NEVER EVER try to use this utility to upload
            firmware that is from different vendor than your AP, unless you
            perfectly know what you are doing, of course - otherwise,
            you may irreversibly turn your AP into paperweight quite easily.
            ATMEL APs are well known for their general firmware upload
            design flaw (no authorization necessary for firmware upgrade),
            that has caused many destroyed APs by joe-blow users uploading
            incorrect firmware, and even APs destroyed by malicious users
            that have intentionally uploaded incorrect firmware. See manpage
            for details.
            You have been warned.
        * src/ap-trapd.c:
          - recognise ATMEL12350 enterprise ID => will now react to traps
            sent by devices with ATMEL 12350 enterprise MIB
          - will now also print Trap number along with its string
            representation
          - bugfix: fixed problem with printing trap strings from
            non-SmartBridges traplist when '-s' given, and vice versa
        * src/auth.c:
          - introduced as replacement for old 'auth_mac.c'. Simple 'auth'
            name reflects its purpose better - it now contains not just
            MAC-based "auth.", but also other auth. types (Radius, 802.1x)
            based on the available MIB vendor "extensions".
          - now properly distinguishes between authorization error and
            invalid data error for SET snmp() operation. Particularly imporant
            when user tries to enter Config/MAC Auth menu with user community
            (which only permits reading, but not writing, and since writing
            is basically required even for pure showing of authorized MAC
            addresses, we need to distinguish these errors).
            If the AP is accessed with 'user' community and it has record(s)
            in MAC auth. list, it will print '(insufficient community used)'
            in the first row of the MAC auth. list field.
            public
          - bugfix: it is now possible to delete last MAC entry too
          - bugfix: when no MAC address left on the list, disallow 'Delete'
            function
          - should now be ready for move to lib/. (and purging in src/)
          - it is now possible to 'escape' from prompt that appears after
            pressing 'd' (delete MAC), upon entering '0'
          - by default, if number of defined MACs is greater than the
            visible scrolling area, the list tail will be shown
          - if adding new MAC addresses, the list will advance to the last
            (currently added) MAC entry to show its position in the MAC table
          - added functionality for HOME, END, PGUP and PGDN keys
          - added functionality for extra Auth. enhancements present in
            ATMEL410 MIB with SBRIDGES extensions (Radius auth.), and
            in ATMEL12350 MIBs with EZYNET extensions (802.1X auth.)
          - now properly distinguishes MIBs with 2-mode AuthorizationMacEnable
            OID, and those with 3-mode AuthorizationMacEnable OID
          - added check against entering duplicated MAC to the MAC table
        * src/bridge.c:
          - bugfixes: since SBRIDGES and GEMTEK represent same lvalue, each
            occurence of ap_vendorext comparison with value SBRIDGES or GEMTEK
            must be and-ed with result of comparison against ap_type value
            or all sorts of weirdness may occur (such as non-working options
            for specific vendor extensions, although they normally should)
          - bugfixes: revised presence of all OIDs in all actually supported
            vendor-extended MIBs. Result: all available OIDs relevant to
            this menu should now also be correctly supported on devices
            with SmartBridges APPO firmware and NetGear ME102 device firmware.
          - Label 'Wireless' for config-enabled port mode changed to
            'Wireless (can be risky)'. I've finally made a resolution
            to step forward in this - setting config-enabled port to
            wireless-only can even be deadly for non-USB equipped devices,
            if configured improperly, if no second ATMEL-based device
            is handy for fixing conf. on the peer via its wireless port,
            for outdoor installations, and in couple of other scenarios.
            REALLY THINK MANY TIMES PRIOR SETTING THIS TO wireless-only !!!
        * configure.in, src/Makefile.am:
          - avoid needless linking with curses library for several utilities
            (ap-auth, ap-mrtg, ap-tftp, ap-trapd).
        * Sysinfo menu will now also show current 'Operational mode'
        * bugfix: all conditions that check return value of to snmp(,i,GET)
          with i > 1, changed from '<= 0' condition to '< i' condition.
          This is very important in cases when the device does not return _all_
          the requested varbinds members filled up, which would usually lead
          either to memory corruption often followed by ap-config crash
          with 'segmentation fault' reason. If there's unreliable media
          between the managed device and ap-config, this could previously
          happen - typically, devices managed via their wireless port
          or incorrectly configured devices (bad Frag. threshold and/or
          RTS threshold) may respond with incomplete replies.
        * naming convention of many variables, structures and OID names changed
          to respect this scheme (cosmetics, intended coding standard):
          - names of several #defines changed to be descriptive as
            'STATUS_DESCRIPTION'
          - OID names, unless absolutely necessary, should be always named
            EXACTLY after the corresponding OID name in MIBs for easier
            referencing
          - names of structures named after OID, should end with '_s' or
            '_' followed by something reasonable
          - variable names should reflect their whole purpose

2004-12-09 Roman Festchook
        * lib/common.c: fixed getting additional character into AP label during autodetection

            must be entered manually
        * lib/ap_search.c: reverted back to scan oid Wireless info string (that find APs even
            with wrong community) raser than APName oid; info string now truncated only if it
            cant be displayed at current screen width (now it screen width independed)
        * Makefile.am: into dist-hook added command to remove po/*.gmo files from
            final distribution package to decrease size
        * ap-gl/ap-gl.c: in ap-gl utility reverted back to ATMEL_PRISM rather than ATMEL410 naming
        * Documentation/ap-config.8: fixed minor bug in example key for 64-bit WEP encryption

2004-11-24 Jan Rafaj
        * README:
          - made WARNING2 more accurate; added WARNING3
        * lib/Makefile.am:
          - added set_oeminfo.c to the list of source modules
        * lib/ap-utils.h:
          - QHELP and SELECT #defines moved here from lib/stat.c, as we now
            reuse them. QHELP renamed to QTHELP (+ toggling mode).
          - added #defines for NONE, SBRIDGES, TELLUS and VERNET constants
            with numbering according to new ap_vendorexts[][]. Actual values
            of these are hold within newly introduced ap_vendorext global
            (similar to meaning of ap_type global).
          - new data type 'rdprops', used to describe regulatory domain
            properties (code, description, first channel, last channel)
          - formatting fixes (cosmetic)
          - now #includes lib/ap-curses.h
        * lib/ap_search.c:
          - output formatting changes (unification)
          - in case the length of AP NAME being displayed for actually
            scanned AP exceeds 27 characters, truncate the display
            to first 27 characters (80x25 screen limit) and append
            '>' character to indicate that not full AP NAME has been
            displayed
          - user is now prompted for a community, that will be used
            to detect APs, prior scanning
        * lib/common.c:
          - introduced new char *ap_vendorexts[][]; moved char *ap_type[]
            here from src/ap-config.c and ap-gl/ap-gl.c
          - in favour of proper naming, renamed all *APNAME #defines
            to *APLABEL (same for texts, with a help message that clearly
            states that AP LABEL is _independent_ of AP NAME (AP NAME = name
            stored inside the AP), to prevent eventual user confusion.
          - all references to 'name' changed to 'label' in order to respect
            that AP label != AP name (see above). permitted length of label
            is now max. of 16 characters.
          - implemented ability to manually select MIB vendor extension
            along with MIB type (previously just 'AP type:'). This was
            really necessary as we couldn't rely on get_mib_details()
            probing especially when the target AP was not available.
          - if AP MIB type & vendor extension has been _autodetected_, or if
            there's a good belief that the to-be-connected AP (via
            connect_options()) is really alive (when we enter connect_options()
            from ap_search()), then offer possibility to use AP NAME
            as AP LABEL. However, as AP NAME may have max. length of 31
            characters, it will be always truncated to first 16 chars
            (max. length of AP LABEL), and user will be warned if this happens.
          - introduced new 'rdprops regdom_types[]' field to unify reg. domain
            description. Along with newly introduced regdom_types[]
            and regdom_idx(), it enables us to get reg. domain properties
            related to specific reg. domain code at any time, anywhere.
            Merged reg. domain codes & properties of MKK1 & ISRAEL freq.
            domains. Change: MKK domain defines only channel 14.
          - squashed ch_list() in favour of regdom_types[] => killed malloc()s
            in wlan.c & test.c. char *channels[] now keeps statically what
            ch_list() was used to generate on demand before
          - avoid asking for community upon entering connect_options()
            called from ap_search(), as we already know the community
          - thrown myself into about()
        * lib/file.c:
          - all references to 'name' changed to 'label' in order to respect
            that AP LABEL != necessarilly AP NAME (see above)
          - implemented storing of MIB vendor extension into ~/.ap-config
          - changed name of stored file with MAC authorised addresses
            in the AP from '~/ap-MIBTYPE.stations' to
            'ap-IP-MIBTYPE-MIBEXT.stations'
          - output formatting changes (in AP list code):
            - 'NAME' -> 'LABEL', 'TYPE' -> 'MIB TYPE', newly introduced:
              'MIB EXT'; accomodate to new layout
          - in parse_db_str(), truncate displayed length of AP NAME to 16
            characters (80x25 screen limit), upon length of label being read
            > 16 characters (80x25 screen width limit), and append '>'
            character to indicate that it has not been displayed
            in its full length (TODO: remove screen width limits)
          - fixed numerous memleaks caused by missing free()ing of
            ip, passwd and label parts of APList structure in get_opts()
          - option writing ~/.ap-config is now verbose. Required moving
            main print_help() to the while(1) cycle body.
          - save_Stations() is now verbose at minimum level
        * lib/input.c:
          - patched get_value() so that zero-length ANY_STRING type input
            can be optionally allowed. Selected string input fields now accept
            empty value. minv & maxv arguments switched from int to unsigned
            int so that we may cover full uint32 range - also involved
            switching from atoi() to strtoul(), as we need to check a condition
            when errno == ERANGE (given value bigger than 0xFFFFFFFF).
          - implemented wait_key() as unified means to wait for user input
            selection different ways. The actual input mode with respect
            to waiting is being held in wait_mode global, that can
            be toggled using 't/T' keys in statistic views where appropriate
            (SysInfo, Ethernet statistics, Wireless statistics).
          - added help_ysn() as preferred & unified way to wait for user Y/N
            choice. Prints Y/ safe N help message; clear settings subwin
            & returns 0 upon pressing y/Y or 1 upon n/N. All Y/N code
            everywhere has been replaced with single call to help_syn().
        * lib/menu.c:
          - added hidden call to atmel_set_oeminfo (secret 'OEM info settings'
            menu), based on set_oeminfo_allowed global from set_oeminfo.c
        * lib/scr.c:
          - print_bottom() now also prints MIB vendor extension info
            in form of 'Ext: <TAG>'
          - introduced print_bold() to decrease high amount of low-level
            attribute-setting stuff everywhere (involved conversion
            to print_bold() wherever possible)
          - removed print_viewtype() and all references to this replaced
            with print_bold()
        * lib/set_oeminfo.c:
          - newly introduced. Actually only functional for ATMEL CPU-based
            APs. ALLOWS TO CHANGE OEM INFORMATIONS STORED WITHIN THE AP,
            AFTER PRESSING 'S' KEY WHILE IN 'Config' MENU. Note that this
            is a HIDDEN function, since it is really only suitable for large
            WISPs & repair shops. Compatibility level that has been achieved
            with original windows utility is around 96%. Use with care.
        * lib/snmp.c:
          - added (currently commented out) new function ber_decode_uint().
            It may come in handy elsewhere in the future.
        * lib/sysinfo.c:
          - atmel_sysinfo() now uses select() to wait for user keyboard input.
            'q' or 'Q' key quits, others force update without clearing screen.
          - (hopefully) fixed conversion of raw input buffer value to int
            for uptime-displaying code
        * lib/sysinfo.c, lib/sysinfo_set.c, lib/wlan.c, lib/ap-utils.h:
          (cosmetical):
          - added #include <time.h>, missing on some platforms
          - renamed ptr410 and ptr12350 to str410 and str12350
          - renamed SysDeviceInfo_* to sysDeviceInfo (MIB conformance)
          - fixed interpretation of (long) INT value returned by the AP
            in UpTime-displaying code
          - implemented toggling of polling mode through 'T' [works
            only with ATMEL12350 VERNET MIB-compatible devices]
          - uses select() instead of getch() when polling is active
          - indentation fixes (cosmetic)
        * lib/test.c:
          - changes to use channels[] and regdom_types[] instead of
            ch_list() and malloc()s
        * lib/wlan.c:
          - changes to use channels[] and regdom_types[] instead of
            ch_list() and malloc()s
          - fix: added missing print_help(WAIT_RET)
        * ap-gl/ap-gl.c:
          - few indentation fixes (cosmetic)
          - changes to keep sync with new lib functionality (MIB vendor
            extensions code)
        * ap-gl/stations.c, src/stations.c:
          - print_help() is now called from within while(1) cycle, in order
            to be compatible with updated save_Stations()
        * src/bridge.c:
          - fix: added missing print_help(WAIT_RET)
        * 'RegulationDomain' renamed to 'RegulatoryDomain' for MIB conformance
        * further optimisations everywhere for reusing print_bold()
        * load of small bugfixes
        * print_title() replaced with new print_top() that will also
          handle displaying "view" type (on LHS) along with menu title
          (on RHS) using single pass. This was really in need of unification.
          Side effect: no need to redraw title strip on each screen update
          anymore (no two separate ways to write to same location).
        * some spelling, indentation & accuracy fixes here and there

        * README:
          - removed reference to HARDWARE-NOTES, that didnt made it into
            previous ap-utils versions by accident
          - added WARNING 1 and WARNING 2 sections (originally intended to be
            in HARDWARE-NOTES, but the magnitude of their importance deserves
            to put them straight into README)
        * TODO: updated
        * lib/ap-utils.h:
          - added "(valid)" to the ERR_RET message, which more accurately
            reflects what may actually happen (AP actually _may_ return
            data, but in an unexpected format)
          - enhanced WirelessStatistics structure for TransmittedPackets_11Mbps,
            TransmittedPackets_55Mbps, TransmittedPackets_2Mbps, and
            TransmittedPackets_1Mbps so that we can support functionally
            enhanced firmware from VERNET WISP.
        * lib/ap_search.c:
          - in third column, display operAccessPointName OUI using label
            "Name" instead of Wireless OUI. Makes more sense.
          - made the number of APs per screen, as well as the offset at which
            the info about whats actually scanned, is printed, relative
            to the actual screen height (so to increase maximum hard-coded
            amount of APs displayed, just switch from 80x25 console font
            to a bigger one, or use X terminal window)
        * lib/aps.c:
          - reverted displaying back to RSSI & LQ both in % in screen 1.
            This is becouse a) we want to keep as close to the view of the
            original ATMEL utility as possible here, and b) huge dispersion
            in dBm versus raw value of RSSI exists among different flavours
            of APs, and the dBm formula unfortunately often gives results
            very far from real values. So we want to display something thats
            less jittering in the scope of inter-AP comparison.
          - cosmetic fixes (2-line legend instead of 3-line)
          - rebound the 'refresh' from 's' key to otherwise unused keys,
            in favour of keyboard interface unification
        * lib/common.c:
          - created get_mib_details() to provide vendor-specific private
            ATMEL MIB detection
          - fixed a bug introduced by the 'name' patch, resulting in
            omission to clear screen properly when user has given
            insufficient credentials (bad password) to detect new AP type
          - made the 'name'-patch code malloc-free (and memleak #2 free).
            There's no point to use malloc()d space here since we dont
            reuse it elsewhere (contrary to char *community).
          - fixed bad variable boundary-handling introduced by 'name'-patch
            that might result in crash of utility under circumstance
            when ~/.ap-config didnt previously exist and user attempted
            to add new AP with name of length >= 7 characters
          - added possibility to skip name definition if user wants to
            (useful for example when the newly added AP's IP will be used
            solely for testing purposes :)
        * vendor-specific private ATMEL MIB detection is now referred to
          get_mib_details() everywhere
        * lib/file.c:
          - a lot of indentation fixes
          - in get_opts(): fixed couple of bugs:
            - it was possible to issue 'Connect' command when the AP list
              was empty (was leading to endless loop)
            - 'Delete' command failed to remove last remaining AP from the
              list, ending up in endless loop (as get_value() doesnt do
              sanity checking on its input paremeters)
          - fixed a memleak #1 possibly introduced by 'name' patch - we need
            to free char *name after its use
          - in _scroll_rows(), fixed the AP MIB TYPE cutoff-by-format-string,
            introduced by 'name' patch, and enhanced message size to accomodate
            the true max. row size instead
          - in get_opts() appended '(in ~/.ap-config)' behind the user-defined
            APs list banner, to better reflect the real meaning of 'NAME'
            (and other fields), to prevent someone from f.e. thinking
            that the NAME here is the name stored in AP's configuration
            (which it is NOT, of course).
        * lib/oui.c: added OUIs:
          - 000B46 (Cisco)
          - 000D54 (3Com Europe Ltd)
          - 000D88 (D-Link Corporation)
          - 000EA6 (ASUSTEK COMPUTER INC.)
        * lib/radio.c:
          - fixed non-working radio menu with ATMEL12350 APs by merging the
            initial TestModeRadioConfiguration and operAntennaSettings OID
            modifications when ap_type == ATMEL12350
        * lib/stat.c:
          - replaced ERR_RET_PRESS with ERR_RET
          - simplified; no more forking, goto's reduced, no need of
            pipe(), alarm() or sig*jmp(); use select() for waiting -
            it is now possible to quit (by pressing 'q' or 'Q') immediately.
            Also, the counters now get updated immediately after pressing
            whatever key != q.
          - fixed a bug that, due to previous use of sig*jmp(), resulted
            in lockup when attempting to quit ap-config after it has received
            invalid packet, by pressing 'q' key several times
          - WirelessStat(): implemented support of ATMEL 12350 functionally
            enhanced MIB by VERNET WISP.
        * lib/sysinfo.c:
          - enhanced atmel_sysinfo() for displaying system uptime using
            UpTime OID from ATMEL12350 VERNET MIB.
        * lib/wlan.c:
          - fixed showing/setting of BeaconPeriod value for ATMEL12350_TELLUS -
            acceptable value range is now 0 - 65535 as originally intended
          - new: implemented showing/setting of 'SIFS time' parameter, specific
            to APs with ATMEL12350_VERNET firmware/MIB
        * spelling & indentation fixes
        * lib/scr.c, src/stations.c:
          - implemented support for viewing statistics
            produced by enhanced ATMEL 12350 firmware by VERNET
          - implemented toggling of RSSI between 'dBm' view, '%' view, and
            raw view - added new functions print_viewtype_rssi(), conv_rssi().
            [TODO: update ap-gl/stations.c, too]
          - pressing other than the selected keys will now result in refresh
            of all values

2003-10-27 Jan Rafaj
        * README,THANKS,TODO: modified
        * HARDWARE-NOTES: added. This should keep important hardware-related
          informations that the users _must_ read prior using ap-utils.
        * reverted parameters order for on_off(), menu_choose() so that
          we always use <row,col> order everywhere
        * src/aps.c:
          - made ap_viewtype global so that the selected view type
            sustains for whole session
          - replaced snmp() for SiteSurveyCommand scan with sendto(),
            as buggy ATMEL12350 firmware does not confirm SiteSurveyCommand
            reception, but goes straight to internal scanning loop.
            This allows for attempts to perform SiteSurveyCommand
            via wireless interface of the AP, which would previously
            time out due to the reluctance of the firmware to send
            confirmation, as described above.
        * src/bridge.c: disallow remote BSSID option key if AP is in
          Access Point mode
        * src/common.c:
          - again changed/corrected the order of autodetection.
            We cannot check against sysDescr OID of ATMEL12350 in first step
            becouse ATMEL410 devices would pass this check too and would
            be falsely marked as ATMEL12350.
          - added back possibility to manually select the AP type.
            User is given a choice to either autodetect the device
            (default), or specify type manually. The latter may have
            advantage if the AP is not actually available via network.
          - hide cursor again after user turns back from the subshell
        * src/radio.c: implemented detection & setup functions for APs
          that give response to operAntennaSettings OID query in 1-byte
          format. It seems that these devices do not distinguish between
          receiving and transmitting antennas. This is true even for some
          APs with single antenna output (Tellus A14 as an example),
          where this OID gives really no good to the sum of resulting
          functionality (why would you ever need to set up which antenna
          is left, right or diversity, if you got just one ? :^)
        * lib/ap-utils.h, src/common.c, src/input.c:
          - added new function get_pass(). This code has been taken from
            common.c, modified and moved to input.c.
          - AP type is now displayed once it is selected or autodetected
          - maximum password length is 16 characters, not more (originally
            it was 32). It is quite possible more than 16 may work
            with some devices, but I've never seen an AP MIB that would
            define community length > 16 characters.
          - made the offsets at which the values are displayed, relative
            to the length of option name strings, to ease work for
            translators
          - yes_no(): newly introduced
          - ignore escape key presses in both get_value() and get_pass()
        * src/ap_search.c:
          - indentation fixes
          - if connect_options() is called for discovered APs, the 'type'
            argument has to be always > 0, as this is being checked
            against in connect_options(). We increment it with one all
            the time and decrement back after the check in connect_options().
            Now, the user is not prompted for AP type in connect_options()
            if he should not have to be (originally intended behaviour).
          - check against duplicated responses from ATMEL410 APs. These
            are also able to answer queries with 12350 in query OID. This
            is now being explicitly checked for => no more duplicate
            ATMEL410 and ATMEL12350 APs with same IPs in the Search menu.
          - do not attempt to assign const char "public" to 'community'
            variable, as we attempt to free() it elsewhere. We could use
            malloc() here, but still, this would have no good reason since
            user is (and should be) always prompted for a password once
            he selects desired AP from the 'Search' menu, once it is found =>
            all password-saving & handling parts have been removed for now.
            This also fixes a crash that would occur if someone would try
            to connect to an AP in 'Connect' menu, after unsuccessful
            'Search' attempt.
          - implemented searching per multiple network devices. This involved
            modifying ap_search() and changing it to scan_local_segment(),
            as well as making scan_local_segment() self-reentrant, plus
            adding portable code to scan for available network interfaces
            for their IP/broadcast(ptp) pairs, that are later used to scan
            segments via scan_local_segment(). Thanks to Dan J. Bernstein
            for an effort in writing portable SIOCGIFCONF-related code;
            the current implementation is based on his ipme.c from Qmail.
            No more using 255.255.255.255 as broadcast as well as source
            IP scanning. Results are now accurate even on routers with
            multiple network interfaces of different types. The current
            ap_search() has been verified/tested with W-Link WEN2021
            and Tellus TWL-A14 APs on Linux 2.2/2.4 and FreeBSD 4.9 .
          - the progress is now verbose:
            - each AP is shown immediately as soon as it is found
            - the screen is realtime-updated with information about network
              interface index, its name and AP type, currently scanned for
          - it is now possible to quit from scanning process by pressing
            'q' or 'Q' whenever user wants to
          - do not attempt to connect to an AP by pressing a key with index
            of AP that is not present in the 'found' table
        * src/oui.c: added OUIs:
          - 000C30 (Cisco)
          - 000C41 (The Linksys Group, Inc.)
        * configure.in: added check to determine whether the (struct sockaddr)
          has 'sa_len' member, and if it has, #define HAVE_SA_LEN in order to
          properly support network interface detection on 4.4BSD-ish systems.
          Moved AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR macro behind AC_INIT, to satisfy
          newer autoconf. Also, moved template definition from acconfig.h here.
        * acconfig.h: deleted (deprecated for newer autoconfs)
        * src/menu.c: added hooks for keys, 'q' / 'Q', Home (PageUp), and
          End (PageDown)
        * src/set_community.c: use get_pass() for now instead of get_value(),
          so that the passwords are hidden when someone types them in.
          We should really use get_value() for this later, and make
          the password hiding optional.

2003-10-21 Roman Festchook
        * configure.in: version 1.3.3, added "thank you" message

2003-09-08 Jan Rafaj
        * README: added several APs to the table of supported hardware
        * lib/ap-utils.h, src/ap-config.c, src/auth_mac.c: AuthMAC()
          renamed to atmel_auth_mac()
        * lib/ap-utils.h, src/input.c, src/test.c, src/set_community.c,
          src/wep.c, src/wlan.c, src/auth_mac.c, src/bridge.c, src/common.c,
          src/file.c, src/nwn_advanced.c, src/radio.c:
          - get_value(): rewritten; now embeds the bounds as well as
            pressed key checking. The range boundaries, the desired type
            of input with respect to the acceptable characters, and the
            pointer to a message to be restored, when a warning about
            exceeded boundary is printed in the bottom stripe, are accepted
            as four additional parameters now.
          - get_ip(), get_mask(): newly introduced
          - get_ip(), get_mac(): based on get_value(), with additional
            bounds checking tailored accordingly and moved here from
            src/bridge.c
          - get_mask(): based on get_ip() with additional mask correctness
            checking code moved here from src/bridge.c
          - all the above functions were used to replace the respective
            original input functions to match the changed prototypes
          - the generic message 'Invalid value...' has been replaced
            with 'Value must be in range %i - %i...'. This is printed
            in bold-white/red in bottom stripe if the user input value
            exceeds the predefined boundaries.
          - added inet_aton()-specific includes to lib/ap-utils.h,
            and removed elsewhere for multiple reasons
        * src/wlan.c: fixed code displaying the ESSID - upon its change,
          previously it could happen that if a newly written ESSID
          would be shorter than the previous one, the loop that has been used
          to display ESSID would [erroneously] expect the string to be
          finished with '\0' (which is not required due to operESSIDLength),
          and would display garbage with content of and length up to an
          old ESSID string

       * README: fixed/added some supported AP hardware entries
       * lib/ap-utils.h, src/ap-config.c, src/bridge.c, src/radio.c,
         src/set_community.c, src/sysinfo.c, src/test.c, src/wep.c,
         src/wlan.c: hopefully the last round of changes in naming
         convention
       * src/bridge.c, src/wlan.c:
         utility now distinguishes some extra MIB subtypes: for 410 enter-
         prises MIBs: "SmartBridges" form, and for 12350 enterprises MIBs:
         "Tellus" MIB form "prototype". The MIB form is being distinguished
         based on the OUI part of MAC address of the device.
         Other than those MIBs named above are considered "generic"
         forms, becouse are very ubiquitous.
         This procedure is necessary, becouse despite the fact that
         many MIBs keep the same enterprises ID, they differ slightly
         in OID structures (some OIDs are in one MIB and not in other,
         and same OIDs even may have significantly different meaning -
         this is a case of Tellus A14 MIB x NetGear ME102 MIB, f.e.).
         So, unfortunately, there's no other way, but:
         - make some MIB "prototypes" (aggregate those that contain
           exactly the same information, based on the supported
           AP models across all the device manufacturers)
         - determine the correct MIB based on the OUI part of MAC
           address of the device (we assume noone changes OUI part
           of the MAC of his AP)
         It is quite possible that this approach will need revision
         in the future, but since there appears to be no 100% reliable
         way of how to distinguish different device models of one
         specific manufacturer, the above is currently the finest,
         although still coarse enough, method to support most devices.
       * src/bridge.c:
         - 'Preferred BSSID' keys rebound from 'm/M' to 'r/R'
         - 'Forward broadcast traffic' keys rebound from 't/T' to 'r/R'
         - introduced new setting 'Trap-sending port(s)', and bound to 't/T'
           key. This setting appears only if ATMEL12350 device with
           "Tellus Group Co." OUI is detected.
       * src/wlan.c:
         - fixed 'Beacon period' input/output data formatting/displaying
         - display/snag/set 'Beacon period' and 'DTIM sending interval'
           options/their values only if the device uses "generic"
           ATMEL12350 MIB prototype (that of NetGear ME102 for example).
           This should fix crashing becouse of missing MIB OIDs for people
           that use this kind of devices.

2003-08-25 Roman Festchook
        * lib/ap-utils.h, configure.in: FreeBSD compile time fixes

2003-08-19 Roman Festchook
        * src/ap_search.c: fixed getch delay and restoring current connect options when quiting search screen

2003-08-18 Jan Rafaj
        * README, THANKS: modified
        * most of string #defines moved from lib/ap-utils.h to the corresponding
          modules in src - lib/ap-utils.h should keep just those that are
          common to more than 1 module
        * src/aps.c:
          - fix bound-checking condition. Some APs with older ATMEL firmware
            actually provide less space than 16 APs in its KnownAP reply,
            and we also need to check for condition when lvalue of next MAC
            entry in the response table is 0 (means end of statistics)
          - only rewrite the current bridge_mode to 3 (AP client) if the
            AP is ATMEL12350 type
        * src/auth_mac.c, src/bridge.c, src/nwn_latest.c, src/sysinfo.c,
          src/test.c, src/wep.c, src/wlan.c:
          - stripped the formatting characters from remaining string #defines
          - made the displaying value in 'Feature: value' dependant on offset
            computed through strlen() from #defined string - this way,
            the internationalisation is eased becouse translators dont need
            to keep with original english strings size
        * src/bridge.c: implemented new functionality from ATMEL 12350 MIB for:
          - Configuration-enabled port(s)
          - ForwardBroadcast
          - SendBackBcast
          - SendBackUnicast
        * src/input.c: enhanced get_mac() for checking invalid MAC values
          that user may type in; if he does, print generic error and loop
          unless user gives syntactically correct value.
        * src/radio.c: changed the 'Key' to '[key]' in bottom message for
          uniformity.
        * lib/ap-utils.h, src/sysinfo.c, src/wlan.c: renamed CFG_STRUCT_
          {ATMEL410,ATMEL12350} to SysDeviceInfo_{ATMEL410,ATMEL12350}
        * src/wlan.c: corrected offset of displayed values for features:
          - InterRoaming
          - BeaconPeriod
          - DTIM

2003-08-14 Roman Festchook
        * src/common.c: changed AP type autodetection order - firstly searching for ATMEL12350, by default ATMEL410
        * configure.in: version 1.3.3-pre2
        * src/aps.c: fixed connecting to choosen AP on ATMEL12350 APs in not AP Client mode

2003-08-14 Elros Cyriatan
        * po/nl/po: New Dutch PO file for `ap-utils'

2003-08-11 Jan Rafaj
        * next round of spelling and indentation fixes
        * src/aps.c:
          - made the 'KnownAP' statistics available only if the Access Point
            is in AP client mode [original behaviour]. Some Access Points
            may keep the statistics in their RAM, but no update is performed.
            Even, sometimes, their RAM may contain garbage after reset,
            which would cause parsing problems.
        * lib/ap-utils.h, lib/reset.c, src/ap-config.c, src/ap-mrtg.c,
          src/ap_search.c, src/aps.c, src/auth_mac.c, src/bridge.c,
          src/cmd.c, src/common.c, src/radio.c, src/set_community.c,
          src/stat.c, src/stations.c, src/sysinfo.c, src/test.c,
          src/wep.c, src/wlan.c:
          - changed all occurences of 'ATMEL' to 'ATMEL410' and
            for 'ME102' to 'ATMEL12350'
        * lib/ap-utils.h, src/ap-config.c, src/sysinfo.c:
          - renamed sysinfo() to atmel_sysinfo()
        * lib/ap-utils.h, src/ap-config.c, src/wlan.c:
          - renamed wireless() to atmel_wireless()
        * src/ap-config.c:
          - redefined color pair 2 (black ink, green background), and defined
            new color pair 3 (black ink, green background), and color
            pair 4 (white ink, red background). 2 is used for showing
            all string values actually changed by the user; 3 is used
            for displaying column-info stripe in aps.c, and 4 is used
            to display error-related messages in bottom status stripe.
        * src/input.c:
          - get_value() modified
        * src/scr.c, lib/ap-utils.h:
          - added new function print_menusel().
            Prints a message split up to two parts - first part without
            colors, second part in bright. Used in conjunction with get_value()
            to display parameters that the user modified, in bold.
          - added new function print_helperr(). This is basically the same
            as print_help(), with the only difference that it prints
            the text in white bold on red background. Uses color pair 4
            and bold attribute; see above.
        * names of all print_help() functions related to printing error
          messages have been changed to print_helperr()
        * src/auth_mac.c, src/bridge.c, src/radio.c, src/test.c, src/wep.c,
          src/wlan.c, lib/ap-utils.h:
          - implemented new colorisation scheme using print_menusel()
            and get_value(), get_mac() - if user enters a new value,
            the maximum space (in character counts) that can be used,
            is displayed in inverse color. As soon as user confirms
            the new value by pressing enter, the changed value is displayed
            in bold (so that he knows what he has actually changed).
        * src/bridge.c:
          - when entering AP's IP, mask and gateway, do not allow
            to pass further if the user input is invalid - instead, loop unless
            user enters valid information
          - hardened bounds checking against correct netmask value;
            now, invalid netmasks like 255.255.255.129 elicits error
            and forces prompt for new value, too
        * lib/ap-utils.h, src/ap-mrtg.c, src/ap_search.c: placed
          conditinal GLIBC checks => ap-utils now compile/run even
          on non-GLIBC (LIBC5-based and such) systems, hopefully.
          Actually it has only been tested with libc5-based Linux
          system.
        * lib/ap-utils.h, src/ap-mrtg.c, src/ap-trapd.c: placed conditional
          HAVE_GETTEXT checks around parts using gettext, to get
          ap-utils compile on systems without gettext support
        * lib/snmp.c, src/file.c: external declaration of ap_type datatype
          unified as 'short' and made global to make some old
          GNU C compilers happy

2003-08-07 Roman Festchook
        * src/brige.c: fixed bug when saving changed ip, netmask and gw

2003-08-07 Jan Rafaj
        * various spelling and indentation fixes here and there
        * all the ATMEL 12350-specific stuff below has been modelled
          using Tellus A14 AP.
        * src/aps.c:
          - made it malloc()-free. no more potential leaks.
          - 'KnownAP' now works for ATMEL 12350-based APs too
          - allow of up to 16 concurrent APs to be displayed
            in the 'KnownAP', as the packet itself may carry
            up to 16 records (768/48). This is also a fix
            becouse up to now, the menu has shown just the first
            AP entry.
          - The button for 'refresh without reset', originally bound to
            'g' and 'G' key, has been rebound to 's' ('S') key,
            since the keys a-g (A-G) are now used as keys, corresponding
            to numbers 10-16 of the APs displayed, when used in
            '# connect to this AP' command.
          - enhanced '# connect to this AP' functionality for
            also setting the appropriate channel through operChannelID
            OID
          - disallow connection to Ad-Hoc mode bridges
          - fixed bad effect of displaying 'Writing data to AP'
            after pressing AP number, even if the number of the
            selected AP is not actually present in the table
          - changed the color scheme to some more eye-pleasant values
          - implemented 4 different "views", that can be toggled
            via 't' ('T') key:
            * view 1: - most usual one; with RSSI and LQ in %
                        [ATMEL utility view]
            * view 2: - the same as 1; except that RSSI is displayed
                        in dBm and LQ in raw
            * view 3: - ESSID shown expanded to full length,
                        no NetworkType; RSSI displayed in raw,
                        LQ displayed in raw
            * view 4: - shown only BSSID, and its hardware manufacturer
          - the 'KnownAP' statistics is available without reset
            if the Access Point is either in any of APclient or AP modes,
            not just when it is in APclient mode.
        * lib/ap-utils.h:
          - HARD_CONFIGURATION_STRUCT is now replaced with two new
            structures: CFG_STRUCT_ATMEL (for ATMEL 410-based devices),
            and CFG_STRUCT_ME102 (for ATMEL 12350-based devices).
        * src/sysinfo.c:
          - sysinfo() made malloc()-free, and made both ATMEL 410-
            and ATMEL 12350-aware => SysInfo for APs of both ATMEL types
            is now displayed correctly
        * src/oui.c:
          - added OUI 000CCE (Cisco Systems)
        * lib/ap-utils.h, src/wlan.c:
          - made it fully ATMEL 410- and ATMEL 12350-aware
            (displaying/setting of additional InterRoaming, BeaconPeriod
            and DTIM parameters in case of ATMEL12350). Note that
            it is possible to regulate BeaconPeriod in range 0-65407
            and DTIM in range 0-255, but the boundary limits may vary
            with different hardware. I've tried to make as broad
            range coverage as possible. Anyway, for example, Tellus A14
            resets the BeaconPeriod internally to 100, if you write
            it with value out of 1-1000 interval.
          - rebound key for ESSID from 'd' ('D') to 'e' ('E')
