30 * configure.in, NEWS: version 1.5
33 Since one of the users has provided me with SmartBridges APPO,
34 the support for latest APPO firmware (1.4k5) can now hopefully
35 be finished as originally intended.
37 * Documentation/FAQ: updated
39 - bugfix: added missing @CURSESLIBS@ to the target
42 - added dbmconv() macro to correctly handle dBm computing for
45 - 'Wireless' OID is really 'sysDescr' OID
46 - no longer ask for community, since device will respond to
47 sysDescr query no matter what community is currently being used
48 (Roman, thanks for notifying!)
49 - bugfix: 'AP NAME' changed to 'FW TYPE (VERSION) AP NAME', to
50 reflect better whats being displayed
51 - bugfix: scan_local_segment() now triggers screen-width truncation
54 - cosmetics: screen is now properly cleared with exit_program()
56 - bugfix: exclusive use of getch() in wait_key() instead of
57 escape-sequences-not-aware getc() results in greater robustness
58 of input code (it is now a lot harder to end up with buffered
59 content in stdin, that would otherwise lead to odd results
61 - get_value() almost completely rewritten. switched from getchar()
62 to getch() to get correct output on older terminals, as well as
63 to avoid displaying of escape-sequences and to interpret escape-
64 sequences for the following usual keys, that now work:
65 INSERT (toggles Insert/Overwrite mode)
66 DELETE (rightside delete)
67 BACKSPACE (leftside delete)
68 LEFT ARROW (move cursor back 1 character)
69 RIGHT ARROW (advance cursor forward 1 character)
70 HOME (move to the beginning of the string)
71 END (move to the end of the string)
72 - bugfix: get_value() will now omit leading zeros from correct number
73 given by the user (they will be eaten upon user's ENTER keypress)
74 - bugfix: in get_mask(), trans_count must be always reset upon
75 failure to validate user input, or after single failure, all
76 subsequent attempts would (previously) fail
77 * lib/oui.c: added OUIs:
78 - 000E2E (Edimax Technology Co., Ltd.)
79 - 000F66 (Cisco-Linksys)
80 - 00117C (e-zy.net) :)
82 - prepended 'USB ' in front of 'Vendor ID' and 'Product ID'
85 - bugfix: eliminated leak by unfreed malloc'ed memory in snmp() using
87 - introduced three new functions: close_sockfd(), open_sockfd()
88 and reopen_sockfd(). They should really be in common.c, but then
89 again, they are low-level stuff that should primarily be used
90 only in snmp(), and snmp.c itself contains no ncurses stuff
91 so functions it defines can be reused by external non-ncurses-
92 - in snmp(), switched from sig*jmp()/alarm() timeout code to select()
93 in favor of simplicity and possibility to monitor stdin read-state
94 change at the same time
95 - snmp() will now return with 0 immediately upon keypress, if
96 snmp_quit_by_keypress = 1 and type = GET. This has been added
97 to allow user-requested last-resort quit from blocking state
98 (for example when the target AP does not respond). The decision
99 of what to do is up to the calling code, that has to check
100 stdin content and act accordingly (currently this is used for
101 immediate quit using q/Q key from otherwise blocking snmp() calls).
102 - sockfd is now globally defined here
103 - snmp() now always 'flushes' sockfd prior further network processing
104 so that eventual packet received on sockfd prior snmp() call
105 wont cause desync errors
106 - snmp_retries global is gone. We need to wait at least 1 second
107 past sendto() for response packet, and do everything necessary
108 to avoid 'response for previous request received in next snmp()
109 call' => extra TODO: check, whether the OID part of received packet
110 matches with OID of preceding request, and if not, flush sockfd
111 and do an extra retry of sendto()/recv()
113 * Documentation/ap-tftp.8:
114 - (introduced in previous patchset)
115 - added warning that it is unsafe to try upgrading devices for whose
116 there's no vendor firmware nor upgrade utilities (such as
117 Tellus A13 a.k.a. i-Tec AP GOLD with blue front)
119 - ap-tftp needs to be linked to libap.a from now on
121 - bugfix: computation of percentage was not really correct in v1.0
122 - bugfix: fixed memleak caused by unfreed strdup()
123 - cleanup; use of float type eliminated
124 - it should be now possible to reuse tftp() for .cfg upload, too
125 (.cfg upload code still not there)
126 - revamp of config. parameters
127 - added capability to upgrade all AT76C510-based SmartBridges
128 devices (those with FCC ID 'PWG DOLPHIN')
130 - polling mode is now always enforced
131 - LQ top value is now computed/shown for devices with ATMEL410
133 - bugfix: screen is now correctly cleaned up upon transition
134 from 'associated: yes' to 'associated: no' state
135 - added pause possibility (using 'q' or 'Q' key)
136 - big facelift: added RSSI 'rounding' (a.k.a. RSSI average / last
137 20 samples) gauge, and a general side-scrolling bargraph
138 showing the history of RSSI, RSSI average, RSSI rounding, and,
139 in case of smartBridges firmware, also Link Quality. Views
140 can be toggled using 't' or 'T' key. At the moment, all values
141 are presented in percentage, since this (compared to dBm)
142 does not fluctuate a lot among different firmware versions.
143 User may just pause the polling process and see the corresponding
144 dBm value for the bar currently shown in graph, near the
147 - bugfixes: shown ea_dest_port, ea_time and ea_port values are now
150 - renamed cf_trap_ports to cf_ports (cosmetic)
151 - bugfix: fixed up order of cf_ports to respect MIB-defined order.
152 Interresting note: ATMEL12350 EZYNET MIB firmware actually
153 returns config_port = 0 when it should return 3 ('Both' ports) =>
154 this case is now taken care of.
156 - screen is now cleared upon exiting ap-config
157 * bugfix: fixed rare ap-config crash when sysDeviceInfo OID query
158 would return structure length of 92 bytes instead of 128. Suspection:
159 returning 128 might be a snmp() state machinery error?
160 * squashed any sockfd lowlevel-manipulating stuff (socket(), bind(),
161 close()) everywhere in favour of already globally declared sockfd
162 in snmp.c and eventual reopen_sockfd() call. Lets forget about
163 sockfd if we use just snmp(). TODO: re-evaluate necessity to use
164 reopen_sockfd() in common.c and file.c .
165 * dbmconv() is now used in every place that handles raw->dBm
166 conversion - TODO: just the ap_mrtg needs to be fixed (add
167 detection for SBRIDGES ap_vendorext, then dbmconv())
168 * cosmetics: highlighting over changed values will now disappear,
169 once they are written (using 'W' key)
170 * ERR_CREATING_SOCKET and ERR_BINDING_SOCKET replaced with one single,
171 more generic ERR_SOCKET
172 * new feature: it is now possible to change polling interval in
173 range from <0,1;86400> seconds (default is 1 second)
176 * ap-gl/auth.c: small bugfix
178 2005-01-15 Roman Festchook
179 * src/ap-rrd.c: added utility to store stats from AP into RRD database
180 * src/wlan.c: added 'ACK timeout' additional info into [T] SIFS time (msec)
182 * configure.in, NEWS: version 1.5pre2
185 Note to SmartBridges PTE: you could have nice support in ap-utils
186 at cost of sending me one APPO sample. Since I actually have
187 no sample to test & verify on, all my support for airPoints is on
188 blind or 'someones trial and error report' basis. You should really
189 support OSS developers better way. Info about how to reliably load
190 airPoint PRO firmware to non-SB brand devices, based on the same HW
191 ref. design, would of course help too.
193 NOTE TO ALL USERS: IF YOU HAVE SMARTBRIDGES airPoint PRO (indoor or
194 outdoor) AND WANT BETTER AP-UTILS SUPPORT, YOU CAN SEND ME ONE SAMPLE
195 OF THIS DEVICE. OTHERWISE THERE WILL APPARENTLY BE _INCOMPLETE_ SUPPORT
196 EVEN IN FUTURE! THE LAST APPO I I'VE SEEN IN BAZAAR THAT I WAS PLANNING
197 TO GET IN ORDER TO IMPROVE SUPPORT IN AP-UTILS, HAS BEEN JUST SOLD
198 OUT, SO MY PLANS ARE GONE. I'M NOT WILLING TO PAY LIKE $350
199 FOR ONE SAMPLE JUST TO SUPPORT THE WORLD. SO UNTIL SOMEONE SUPPORTS
200 ME WITH SAMPLE DEVICE TO TEST ON, MY SUPPORT FOR SmartBridges
201 APPO in AP-UTILS IS _OVER_ (and this round of patches is apparently
202 the last effort to improve support in this area).
203 I'LL ALSO ACCEPT ANY DEVICE THAT USES THE SAME FIRMWARE / MIB
204 AS SMARTBRIDGES airPoint PRO.
206 You can contact me about the subjects above via e-mail at
207 <jr-aputils at cedric dot unob dot cz>.
209 Dedicated to memory of cat Micka, my pet.
210 * EZYNET-enhanced AP firmware is now freely available! Read more about
211 its availability, upgrade possibilities and caveats in README,
212 section 'Firmware available free of charge for ATMEL12350 MIB
214 * renamed all references of 'VERNET' to 'EZYNET' (true vendor name)
215 * renamed all references of 'TELLUS' to 'GEMTEK' (Tellus, SparkLan,
216 etc. appear to be GemTek subsidiaries or at least they seem to use
217 firmware from GemTek. If someone knows I'm wrong with this
218 conclusion, please let me know).
219 * note: my primary focus is on support for devices running firmware
220 0.2.x.x, equipped with flash memory AT29LV040A (TSOP1), and
221 second SRAM, such as Tellus A14, SparkLan WX-1590L, etc.
222 Easy way of how to tell that the device has second SRAM, is
223 presence of (poor, locky) web management interface. Older devices
224 with single SRAM may be supported too, but my older test equipment
225 is restricted to W-Link WEN2021 and I-TEC AP GOLD / blue, which means
226 that support for other old ATMEL flavours may or may not work,
227 despite all effort towards supporting them.
229 - added entries for supported APs: i-Tec AP GOLD (black front),
230 InterEpoch IWE1000A, OSBRiDGE m2410/p2410, SparkLAN WX-1590,
231 SparkLAN WX-1590L, D-com WX-1590 web, BOSSWAP
232 - the supported AP table is now sorted according to manufacturer name
233 - added section 'Firmware available free of charge for ATMEL12350 MIB
235 - made WARNING notices more accurate
237 - added entry with thanks to EZYNET
239 - reordered directory components so that 'intl' and 'po' will be
240 built as last ones. This helps on systems with old/broken auto*
241 tools, where building 'po' may fail (it still will do, but its
242 failure now wont prevent building other components).
243 * Documentation/mibs-atmel:
244 - created & populated with all AT76C510 MIB prototypes that should
245 be supported by ap-utils
246 * ap-gl/ap-gl.c, ap-gl/stations.c:
247 - backport of few changes from respective counterparts in src/,
248 to stay compatible with changed color scheme definitions
249 and format of 'Stations' output (btw, there is now no difference!)
251 - backported few non-invasive changes from auth.c
253 - added DONE_WRITING_APCONF & ERR_WRITING_APCONF, since they are
254 now referred from connect_options() as well as get_opts()
255 - added new structs AssociatedSTAsInfo_ATMEL410,
256 AssociatedSTAsInfo_ATMEL12350, NetworkSettings_ATMEL410_SBRIDGES
257 and NetworkSettings_ATMEL12350_EZYNET in favour of unified support
258 across most available vendor-enhanced MIBs
260 - connect_options() is now verbose about status of writing
261 ~/.ap-config file, through DONE_WRITING_APCONF & ERR_WRITING_APCONF
262 - bugfix: fixed ap_vendorexts[ap_type][] boundary check error;
263 no more segfaults when manually specifying MIB type as "ATMEL12350"
264 - bugfix: get_mib_details() no longer relies on OUI part of device's
265 eth. MAC address as authoritative info for MIB vendor extension
266 determination. This was 1. giving totally fake results
267 if someone changed device's MAC, and 2. giving false results
268 for people with devices whose firmware has had certain MIB vendor
269 extensions available (for example SparkLan users with GEMTEK
270 firmware). Autodetection should now work for much broader range
271 of devices with AP firmware.
273 - added functionality for HOME, END, PGUP and PGDN keys
275 - bugfix: in get_value(), use wmove()/wrefresh() instead of wechochar
276 with 0x08 char. (backspace) as parameter - this fixes visual effect
277 of disrespecting leftmost bound on platforms with older ncurses
278 - bugfix: get_mac() now forces user to specify all 12 numbers of MAC,
279 avoiding ambiguous results
281 - squeezed the number of wrefresh(menu) calls to a minimum
282 - mark and highlighting of current menu item are now
283 cleared/restored upon entering/leaving atmel_set_oeminfo()
284 * lib/oui.c: added OUIs:
285 - 000F3D (D-Link Corporation)
286 - 00112F (ASUSTek Computer Inc.)
288 - simplified & unified 'Stations' menu output section in
289 scroll_rows() - it is now used for all ATMEL AP types.
290 Part separately dealing with APs using SmartBridges firmware
292 - shorten screen output of print_top_rssi()
293 - bugfix: in scroll_rows(), clear_main(3) changed to
294 clear_main(row), to make the first-row offset of scroll list
295 really configurable (required by auth.c)
296 * lib/set_community.c:
297 - left boundaries of community fields now start at offset 37
299 - now also shows board VID & PID
300 - added possibility to configure # of calibrated channels
301 Reached 100% compatibility with original utility.
303 - removed RETRIES constant. Instead, snmp_retries now keeps
304 the default amount of retries. This was somewhat necessary,
305 as we may eventually influence amount of retries one snmp() call
306 will attempt, in src/aplink.c
308 - since test() is not yet ATMEL12350-ready, temporary kludge
309 has been added to disable this menu for devices with
312 - bugfix: fix utility crash, that could previously happen if
313 someone changed value of Fragm. threshold from default to
314 value < length of typical expected SNMP response packet,
315 on device managed with ap-config via wireless port.
316 The return value of snmp() is now checked against the number
317 of varbinds members entering snmp() (it covers return value
319 NOTE: IT IS _VERY_ UNWISE AND RISKY TO CHANGE 'RTS threshold'
320 AND 'Fragmentation threshold' VALUES ON DEVICE MANAGED VIA
321 WIRELESS PORT, SINCE THEY HAVE DIRECT IMPACT ON PACKETS TRANSMITTED
322 VIA WIRELESS PORT, AND IF THE VALUE IS BEHIND CERTAIN THRESHOLD,
323 THE DEVICE MAY BECOME COMPLETELY _UNMANAGEABLE_ VIA WIRELESS PORT.
324 If this happens and you have management access to the device
325 via wireless port only, you may try your favourite *-snmp tools to
326 restore RTS threshold and Frag. threshold settings to their
327 default value (2346), but if this fails, the only real way left
328 to fix these values would be through ethernet or USB port. Beware!
329 * lib/set_oeminfo.c, lib/sysinfo.c, lib/wlan.c:
330 - bugfix: changed assumption about selection of proper length
331 sysDeviceInfo OID - this cant be distinguished based on ATMEL MIB
332 type, since, for example, NETGEAR ME102 MIB has ATMEL12350 MIB, but
333 has length of this structure 128 bytes (which most ATMEL410 MIB
334 equipped devices have). Now the proper structure is selected
335 based purely on length of response returned on SysDeviceInfo
336 SNMP query - should 'fix' all places that deal with values
337 generated by query to SysDeviceInfo OID
339 - newly introduced. Embeds atmel_aplink(), which is bound
340 to 'AP link' entry in the 'Info' menu. This entry allows to
341 monitor link state of the device in APclient or WRepeater mode.
342 It will inform user whether the APclient device is actually
343 associated to the AP or not, and if yes, what is the RSSI level of
344 the link (as well as Link Quality in case of device with
345 SmartBridges firmware, or actual connection speed in case of device
346 with EZYNET firmware), MAC of joined BSSID, ESSID, and used
348 RSSI top value per entire measurement session is also available.
349 Since the RSSI indication may be somewhat unstable (at least
350 with EZYNET firmware), showing of RSSI average from up to
351 99999 samples has also been implemented.
352 Note that the code will currently only work for ATMEL410 / SBRIDGES
353 or ATMEL12350 / EZYNET MIB devices, as MIBs of firmware from
354 other vendors does not seem to support NetworkSettings OID.
355 Exception is ATMEL12350 / NONE (NetGear ME102), whose APCLientInfo
356 OID is capable to give connection status too, but is not currently
357 implemented, since it uses different OID & structure and I do not
358 possess ME102 board to test with (TODO).
360 - hardened input validation for the '-i <ip>' parameter (according to
361 get_ip() in lib/input.c)
362 - added AP MIB type autodetection => utility will now also work
363 for devices with ATMEL12350 MIB. Devices with NWN MIB are yet
364 to be supported (TODO).
365 - assigned credits to Teemu
367 - added definitions for several 'should be defined by default' color
368 pairs, that are actually used in bargraph code of aplink.c .
369 Previous pairs 1,2,3,4 were redefined to 11,12,13,14 to avoid
370 clash with 'standard' color pairs above. This change has been
371 propagated to all files dealing with color pairs.
373 - the same level of changes as in src/ap-auth.c. As side result,
374 it is no longer needed to specify AP MIB type (it will be
376 - bugfix: take into account different length of wirelessStatistics
377 structure in ATMEL12350 MIB & EZYNET extensions => '-t w'
378 will now also work for devices with this MIB & extensions.
379 - bugfix: restrict the '-t l' to ATMEL410 MIB devices in APClient
380 mode (ATMEL12350 MIB devices usually do not return any LinkQuality
381 indicators in wirelessKnownAPs structure).
383 - introduced tftp client for upgrading ATMEL-based AP firmware.
384 Should work with boards utilising either 1.4x.y firmware (generally
385 AT76C510+INTERSIL boards, such as D-Link 1150, W-Link WEN-2021,
386 SmartBridges APPO, etc.), and boards utilising 0.x.y.z firmware
387 (generally AT76C510+RFMD boards, such as Tellus A14, Sparklan
388 WX-1590L, NetGear ME-102, OSBRiDGE p2410/m2410, etc.).
389 Use with care and NEVER EVER try to use this utility to upload
390 firmware that is from different vendor than your AP, unless you
391 perfectly know what you are doing, of course - otherwise,
392 you may irreversibly turn your AP into paperweight quite easily.
393 ATMEL APs are well known for their general firmware upload
394 design flaw (no authorization necessary for firmware upgrade),
395 that has caused many destroyed APs by joe-blow users uploading
396 incorrect firmware, and even APs destroyed by malicious users
397 that have intentionally uploaded incorrect firmware. See manpage
399 You have been warned.
401 - recognise ATMEL12350 enterprise ID => will now react to traps
402 sent by devices with ATMEL 12350 enterprise MIB
403 - will now also print Trap number along with its string
405 - bugfix: fixed problem with printing trap strings from
406 non-SmartBridges traplist when '-s' given, and vice versa
408 - introduced as replacement for old 'auth_mac.c'. Simple 'auth'
409 name reflects its purpose better - it now contains not just
410 MAC-based "auth.", but also other auth. types (Radius, 802.1x)
411 based on the available MIB vendor "extensions".
412 - now properly distinguishes between authorization error and
413 invalid data error for SET snmp() operation. Particularly imporant
414 when user tries to enter Config/MAC Auth menu with user community
415 (which only permits reading, but not writing, and since writing
416 is basically required even for pure showing of authorized MAC
417 addresses, we need to distinguish these errors).
418 If the AP is accessed with 'user' community and it has record(s)
419 in MAC auth. list, it will print '(insufficient community used)'
420 in the first row of the MAC auth. list field.
422 - bugfix: it is now possible to delete last MAC entry too
423 - bugfix: when no MAC address left on the list, disallow 'Delete'
425 - should now be ready for move to lib/. (and purging in src/)
426 - it is now possible to 'escape' from prompt that appears after
427 pressing 'd' (delete MAC), upon entering '0'
428 - by default, if number of defined MACs is greater than the
429 visible scrolling area, the list tail will be shown
430 - if adding new MAC addresses, the list will advance to the last
431 (currently added) MAC entry to show its position in the MAC table
432 - added functionality for HOME, END, PGUP and PGDN keys
433 - added functionality for extra Auth. enhancements present in
434 ATMEL410 MIB with SBRIDGES extensions (Radius auth.), and
435 in ATMEL12350 MIBs with EZYNET extensions (802.1X auth.)
436 - now properly distinguishes MIBs with 2-mode AuthorizationMacEnable
437 OID, and those with 3-mode AuthorizationMacEnable OID
438 - added check against entering duplicated MAC to the MAC table
440 - bugfixes: since SBRIDGES and GEMTEK represent same lvalue, each
441 occurence of ap_vendorext comparison with value SBRIDGES or GEMTEK
442 must be and-ed with result of comparison against ap_type value
443 or all sorts of weirdness may occur (such as non-working options
444 for specific vendor extensions, although they normally should)
445 - bugfixes: revised presence of all OIDs in all actually supported
446 vendor-extended MIBs. Result: all available OIDs relevant to
447 this menu should now also be correctly supported on devices
448 with SmartBridges APPO firmware and NetGear ME102 device firmware.
449 - Label 'Wireless' for config-enabled port mode changed to
450 'Wireless (can be risky)'. I've finally made a resolution
451 to step forward in this - setting config-enabled port to
452 wireless-only can even be deadly for non-USB equipped devices,
453 if configured improperly, if no second ATMEL-based device
454 is handy for fixing conf. on the peer via its wireless port,
455 for outdoor installations, and in couple of other scenarios.
456 REALLY THINK MANY TIMES PRIOR SETTING THIS TO wireless-only !!!
457 * configure.in, src/Makefile.am:
458 - avoid needless linking with curses library for several utilities
459 (ap-auth, ap-mrtg, ap-tftp, ap-trapd).
460 * Sysinfo menu will now also show current 'Operational mode'
461 * bugfix: all conditions that check return value of to snmp(,i,GET)
462 with i > 1, changed from '<= 0' condition to '< i' condition.
463 This is very important in cases when the device does not return _all_
464 the requested varbinds members filled up, which would usually lead
465 either to memory corruption often followed by ap-config crash
466 with 'segmentation fault' reason. If there's unreliable media
467 between the managed device and ap-config, this could previously
468 happen - typically, devices managed via their wireless port
469 or incorrectly configured devices (bad Frag. threshold and/or
470 RTS threshold) may respond with incomplete replies.
471 * naming convention of many variables, structures and OID names changed
472 to respect this scheme (cosmetics, intended coding standard):
473 - names of several #defines changed to be descriptive as
475 - OID names, unless absolutely necessary, should be always named
476 EXACTLY after the corresponding OID name in MIBs for easier
478 - names of structures named after OID, should end with '_s' or
479 '_' followed by something reasonable
480 - variable names should reflect their whole purpose
482 2004-12-09 Roman Festchook
483 * lib/common.c: fixed getting additional character into AP label during autodetection
485 2004-12-09 Michel Robitaille
486 * po/fr.po: updated translation
488 2004-11-28 Roman Festchook
489 * Documentation/ap-gl.8, Documentation/README.ap-gl: info from
490 Documentation/README.ap-gl moved to ap-gl man page, removed
491 Documentation/README.ap-gl
492 * Documentation/README.ap-auth:
493 removed because all info now in ap-auth man page
495 2004-11-28 Roman Festchook
496 * lib/common.c: added checking then function called from ap-gl utility
497 in connect_options() automatic detecting MIB, extention. Now community
498 must be entered manually
499 * lib/ap_search.c: reverted back to scan oid Wireless info string (that find APs even
500 with wrong community) raser than APName oid; info string now truncated only if it
501 cant be displayed at current screen width (now it screen width independed)
502 * Makefile.am: into dist-hook added command to remove po/*.gmo files from
503 final distribution package to decrease size
504 * ap-gl/ap-gl.c: in ap-gl utility reverted back to ATMEL_PRISM rather than ATMEL410 naming
505 * Documentation/ap-config.8: fixed minor bug in example key for 64-bit WEP encryption
506 (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=243208)
507 * Documentation/ap-gl.8, Documentation/Makefile.am: added man page for ap-gl utility
508 * Documentation/ap-auth.8, Documentation/Makefile.am: added man page for ap-auth utility
509 * po/fr.po: fixed coredump in Config menu with French locale (now just removed long
510 translated string from po file)
511 (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=259645)
512 * po/uk.po: updated translation
513 * ap-gl/stations.c: fixed RSSI dBm representation
514 * configure.in: version 1.5pre1_FreedomOfUkraine
518 - made WARNING2 more accurate; added WARNING3
520 - added set_oeminfo.c to the list of source modules
522 - QHELP and SELECT #defines moved here from lib/stat.c, as we now
523 reuse them. QHELP renamed to QTHELP (+ toggling mode).
524 - added #defines for NONE, SBRIDGES, TELLUS and VERNET constants
525 with numbering according to new ap_vendorexts[][]. Actual values
526 of these are hold within newly introduced ap_vendorext global
527 (similar to meaning of ap_type global).
528 - new data type 'rdprops', used to describe regulatory domain
529 properties (code, description, first channel, last channel)
530 - formatting fixes (cosmetic)
531 - now #includes lib/ap-curses.h
533 - output formatting changes (unification)
534 - in case the length of AP NAME being displayed for actually
535 scanned AP exceeds 27 characters, truncate the display
536 to first 27 characters (80x25 screen limit) and append
537 '>' character to indicate that not full AP NAME has been
539 - user is now prompted for a community, that will be used
540 to detect APs, prior scanning
542 - introduced new char *ap_vendorexts[][]; moved char *ap_type[]
543 here from src/ap-config.c and ap-gl/ap-gl.c
544 - in favour of proper naming, renamed all *APNAME #defines
545 to *APLABEL (same for texts, with a help message that clearly
546 states that AP LABEL is _independent_ of AP NAME (AP NAME = name
547 stored inside the AP), to prevent eventual user confusion.
548 - all references to 'name' changed to 'label' in order to respect
549 that AP label != AP name (see above). permitted length of label
550 is now max. of 16 characters.
551 - implemented ability to manually select MIB vendor extension
552 along with MIB type (previously just 'AP type:'). This was
553 really necessary as we couldn't rely on get_mib_details()
554 probing especially when the target AP was not available.
555 - if AP MIB type & vendor extension has been _autodetected_, or if
556 there's a good belief that the to-be-connected AP (via
557 connect_options()) is really alive (when we enter connect_options()
558 from ap_search()), then offer possibility to use AP NAME
559 as AP LABEL. However, as AP NAME may have max. length of 31
560 characters, it will be always truncated to first 16 chars
561 (max. length of AP LABEL), and user will be warned if this happens.
562 - introduced new 'rdprops regdom_types[]' field to unify reg. domain
563 description. Along with newly introduced regdom_types[]
564 and regdom_idx(), it enables us to get reg. domain properties
565 related to specific reg. domain code at any time, anywhere.
566 Merged reg. domain codes & properties of MKK1 & ISRAEL freq.
567 domains. Change: MKK domain defines only channel 14.
568 - squashed ch_list() in favour of regdom_types[] => killed malloc()s
569 in wlan.c & test.c. char *channels[] now keeps statically what
570 ch_list() was used to generate on demand before
571 - avoid asking for community upon entering connect_options()
572 called from ap_search(), as we already know the community
573 - thrown myself into about()
575 - all references to 'name' changed to 'label' in order to respect
576 that AP LABEL != necessarilly AP NAME (see above)
577 - implemented storing of MIB vendor extension into ~/.ap-config
578 - changed name of stored file with MAC authorised addresses
579 in the AP from '~/ap-MIBTYPE.stations' to
580 'ap-IP-MIBTYPE-MIBEXT.stations'
581 - output formatting changes (in AP list code):
582 - 'NAME' -> 'LABEL', 'TYPE' -> 'MIB TYPE', newly introduced:
583 'MIB EXT'; accomodate to new layout
584 - in parse_db_str(), truncate displayed length of AP NAME to 16
585 characters (80x25 screen limit), upon length of label being read
586 > 16 characters (80x25 screen width limit), and append '>'
587 character to indicate that it has not been displayed
588 in its full length (TODO: remove screen width limits)
589 - fixed numerous memleaks caused by missing free()ing of
590 ip, passwd and label parts of APList structure in get_opts()
591 - option writing ~/.ap-config is now verbose. Required moving
592 main print_help() to the while(1) cycle body.
593 - save_Stations() is now verbose at minimum level
595 - patched get_value() so that zero-length ANY_STRING type input
596 can be optionally allowed. Selected string input fields now accept
597 empty value. minv & maxv arguments switched from int to unsigned
598 int so that we may cover full uint32 range - also involved
599 switching from atoi() to strtoul(), as we need to check a condition
600 when errno == ERANGE (given value bigger than 0xFFFFFFFF).
601 - implemented wait_key() as unified means to wait for user input
602 selection different ways. The actual input mode with respect
603 to waiting is being held in wait_mode global, that can
604 be toggled using 't/T' keys in statistic views where appropriate
605 (SysInfo, Ethernet statistics, Wireless statistics).
606 - added help_ysn() as preferred & unified way to wait for user Y/N
607 choice. Prints Y/ safe N help message; clear settings subwin
608 & returns 0 upon pressing y/Y or 1 upon n/N. All Y/N code
609 everywhere has been replaced with single call to help_syn().
611 - added hidden call to atmel_set_oeminfo (secret 'OEM info settings'
612 menu), based on set_oeminfo_allowed global from set_oeminfo.c
614 - print_bottom() now also prints MIB vendor extension info
615 in form of 'Ext: <TAG>'
616 - introduced print_bold() to decrease high amount of low-level
617 attribute-setting stuff everywhere (involved conversion
618 to print_bold() wherever possible)
619 - removed print_viewtype() and all references to this replaced
622 - newly introduced. Actually only functional for ATMEL CPU-based
623 APs. ALLOWS TO CHANGE OEM INFORMATIONS STORED WITHIN THE AP,
624 AFTER PRESSING 'S' KEY WHILE IN 'Config' MENU. Note that this
625 is a HIDDEN function, since it is really only suitable for large
626 WISPs & repair shops. Compatibility level that has been achieved
627 with original windows utility is around 96%. Use with care.
629 - added (currently commented out) new function ber_decode_uint().
630 It may come in handy elsewhere in the future.
632 - atmel_sysinfo() now uses select() to wait for user keyboard input.
633 'q' or 'Q' key quits, others force update without clearing screen.
634 - (hopefully) fixed conversion of raw input buffer value to int
635 for uptime-displaying code
636 * lib/sysinfo.c, lib/sysinfo_set.c, lib/wlan.c, lib/ap-utils.h:
638 - added #include <time.h>, missing on some platforms
639 - renamed ptr410 and ptr12350 to str410 and str12350
640 - renamed SysDeviceInfo_* to sysDeviceInfo (MIB conformance)
641 - fixed interpretation of (long) INT value returned by the AP
642 in UpTime-displaying code
643 - implemented toggling of polling mode through 'T' [works
644 only with ATMEL12350 VERNET MIB-compatible devices]
645 - uses select() instead of getch() when polling is active
646 - indentation fixes (cosmetic)
648 - changes to use channels[] and regdom_types[] instead of
649 ch_list() and malloc()s
651 - changes to use channels[] and regdom_types[] instead of
652 ch_list() and malloc()s
653 - fix: added missing print_help(WAIT_RET)
655 - few indentation fixes (cosmetic)
656 - changes to keep sync with new lib functionality (MIB vendor
658 * ap-gl/stations.c, src/stations.c:
659 - print_help() is now called from within while(1) cycle, in order
660 to be compatible with updated save_Stations()
662 - fix: added missing print_help(WAIT_RET)
663 * 'RegulationDomain' renamed to 'RegulatoryDomain' for MIB conformance
664 * further optimisations everywhere for reusing print_bold()
665 * load of small bugfixes
666 * print_title() replaced with new print_top() that will also
667 handle displaying "view" type (on LHS) along with menu title
668 (on RHS) using single pass. This was really in need of unification.
669 Side effect: no need to redraw title strip on each screen update
670 anymore (no two separate ways to write to same location).
671 * some spelling, indentation & accuracy fixes here and there
675 - removed reference to HARDWARE-NOTES, that didnt made it into
676 previous ap-utils versions by accident
677 - added WARNING 1 and WARNING 2 sections (originally intended to be
678 in HARDWARE-NOTES, but the magnitude of their importance deserves
679 to put them straight into README)
682 - added "(valid)" to the ERR_RET message, which more accurately
683 reflects what may actually happen (AP actually _may_ return
684 data, but in an unexpected format)
685 - enhanced WirelessStatistics structure for TransmittedPackets_11Mbps,
686 TransmittedPackets_55Mbps, TransmittedPackets_2Mbps, and
687 TransmittedPackets_1Mbps so that we can support functionally
688 enhanced firmware from VERNET WISP.
690 - in third column, display operAccessPointName OUI using label
691 "Name" instead of Wireless OUI. Makes more sense.
692 - made the number of APs per screen, as well as the offset at which
693 the info about whats actually scanned, is printed, relative
694 to the actual screen height (so to increase maximum hard-coded
695 amount of APs displayed, just switch from 80x25 console font
696 to a bigger one, or use X terminal window)
698 - reverted displaying back to RSSI & LQ both in % in screen 1.
699 This is becouse a) we want to keep as close to the view of the
700 original ATMEL utility as possible here, and b) huge dispersion
701 in dBm versus raw value of RSSI exists among different flavours
702 of APs, and the dBm formula unfortunately often gives results
703 very far from real values. So we want to display something thats
704 less jittering in the scope of inter-AP comparison.
705 - cosmetic fixes (2-line legend instead of 3-line)
706 - rebound the 'refresh' from 's' key to otherwise unused keys,
707 in favour of keyboard interface unification
709 - created get_mib_details() to provide vendor-specific private
711 - fixed a bug introduced by the 'name' patch, resulting in
712 omission to clear screen properly when user has given
713 insufficient credentials (bad password) to detect new AP type
714 - made the 'name'-patch code malloc-free (and memleak #2 free).
715 There's no point to use malloc()d space here since we dont
716 reuse it elsewhere (contrary to char *community).
717 - fixed bad variable boundary-handling introduced by 'name'-patch
718 that might result in crash of utility under circumstance
719 when ~/.ap-config didnt previously exist and user attempted
720 to add new AP with name of length >= 7 characters
721 - added possibility to skip name definition if user wants to
722 (useful for example when the newly added AP's IP will be used
723 solely for testing purposes :)
724 * vendor-specific private ATMEL MIB detection is now referred to
725 get_mib_details() everywhere
727 - a lot of indentation fixes
728 - in get_opts(): fixed couple of bugs:
729 - it was possible to issue 'Connect' command when the AP list
730 was empty (was leading to endless loop)
731 - 'Delete' command failed to remove last remaining AP from the
732 list, ending up in endless loop (as get_value() doesnt do
733 sanity checking on its input paremeters)
734 - fixed a memleak #1 possibly introduced by 'name' patch - we need
735 to free char *name after its use
736 - in _scroll_rows(), fixed the AP MIB TYPE cutoff-by-format-string,
737 introduced by 'name' patch, and enhanced message size to accomodate
738 the true max. row size instead
739 - in get_opts() appended '(in ~/.ap-config)' behind the user-defined
740 APs list banner, to better reflect the real meaning of 'NAME'
741 (and other fields), to prevent someone from f.e. thinking
742 that the NAME here is the name stored in AP's configuration
743 (which it is NOT, of course).
744 * lib/oui.c: added OUIs:
746 - 000D54 (3Com Europe Ltd)
747 - 000D88 (D-Link Corporation)
748 - 000EA6 (ASUSTEK COMPUTER INC.)
750 - fixed non-working radio menu with ATMEL12350 APs by merging the
751 initial TestModeRadioConfiguration and operAntennaSettings OID
752 modifications when ap_type == ATMEL12350
754 - replaced ERR_RET_PRESS with ERR_RET
755 - simplified; no more forking, goto's reduced, no need of
756 pipe(), alarm() or sig*jmp(); use select() for waiting -
757 it is now possible to quit (by pressing 'q' or 'Q') immediately.
758 Also, the counters now get updated immediately after pressing
760 - fixed a bug that, due to previous use of sig*jmp(), resulted
761 in lockup when attempting to quit ap-config after it has received
762 invalid packet, by pressing 'q' key several times
763 - WirelessStat(): implemented support of ATMEL 12350 functionally
764 enhanced MIB by VERNET WISP.
766 - enhanced atmel_sysinfo() for displaying system uptime using
767 UpTime OID from ATMEL12350 VERNET MIB.
769 - fixed showing/setting of BeaconPeriod value for ATMEL12350_TELLUS -
770 acceptable value range is now 0 - 65535 as originally intended
771 - new: implemented showing/setting of 'SIFS time' parameter, specific
772 to APs with ATMEL12350_VERNET firmware/MIB
773 * spelling & indentation fixes
774 * lib/scr.c, src/stations.c:
775 - implemented support for viewing statistics
776 produced by enhanced ATMEL 12350 firmware by VERNET
777 - implemented toggling of RSSI between 'dBm' view, '%' view, and
778 raw view - added new functions print_viewtype_rssi(), conv_rssi().
779 [TODO: update ap-gl/stations.c, too]
780 - pressing other than the selected keys will now result in refresh

905 2003-11-11 Roman Festchook
906 * src/ap-mrtg.c: fixed to return 999999999 for outgoing traffic when error connecting to AP exist
909 * README,THANKS,TODO: modified
910 * HARDWARE-NOTES: added. This should keep important hardware-related
911 informations that the users _must_ read prior using ap-utils.
912 * reverted parameters order for on_off(), menu_choose() so that
913 we always use <row,col> order everywhere
915 - made ap_viewtype global so that the selected view type
916 sustains for whole session
917 - replaced snmp() for SiteSurveyCommand scan with sendto(),
918 as buggy ATMEL12350 firmware does not confirm SiteSurveyCommand
919 reception, but goes straight to internal scanning loop.
920 This allows for attempts to perform SiteSurveyCommand
921 via wireless interface of the AP, which would previously
922 time out due to the reluctance of the firmware to send
923 confirmation, as described above.
924 * src/bridge.c: disallow remote BSSID option key if AP is in
927 - again changed/corrected the order of autodetection.
928 We cannot check against sysDescr OID of ATMEL12350 in first step
929 becouse ATMEL410 devices would pass this check too and would
930 be falsely marked as ATMEL12350.
931 - added back possibility to manually select the AP type.
932 User is given a choice to either autodetect the device
933 (default), or specify type manually. The latter may have
934 advantage if the AP is not actually available via network.
935 - hide cursor again after user turns back from the subshell
936 * src/radio.c: implemented detection & setup functions for APs
937 that give response to operAntennaSettings OID query in 1-byte
938 format. It seems that these devices do not distinguish between
939 receiving and transmitting antennas. This is true even for some
940 APs with single antenna output (Tellus A14 as an example),
941 where this OID gives really no good to the sum of resulting
942 functionality (why would you ever need to set up which antenna
943 is left, right or diversity, if you got just one ? :^)
944 * lib/ap-utils.h, src/common.c, src/input.c:
945 - added new function get_pass(). This code has been taken from
946 common.c, modified and moved to input.c.
947 - AP type is now displayed once it is selected or autodetected
948 - maximum password length is 16 characters, not more (originally
949 it was 32). It is quite possible more than 16 may work
950 with some devices, but I've never seen an AP MIB that would
951 define community length > 16 characters.
952 - made the offsets at which the values are displayed, relative
953 to the length of option name strings, to ease work for
955 - yes_no(): newly introduced
956 - ignore escape key presses in both get_value() and get_pass()
959 - if connect_options() is called for discovered APs, the 'type'
960 argument has to be always > 0, as this is being checked
961 against in connect_options(). We increment it with one all
962 the time and decrement back after the check in connect_options().
963 Now, the user is not prompted for AP type in connect_options()
964 if he should not have to be (originally intended behaviour).
965 - check against duplicated responses from ATMEL410 APs. These
966 are also able to answer queries with 12350 in query OID. This
967 is now being explicitly checked for => no more duplicate
968 ATMEL410 and ATMEL12350 APs with same IPs in the Search menu.
969 - do not attempt to assign const char "public" to 'community'
970 variable, as we attempt to free() it elsewhere. We could use
971 malloc() here, but still, this would have no good reason since
972 user is (and should be) always prompted for a password once
973 he selects desired AP from the 'Search' menu, once it is found =>
974 all password-saving & handling parts have been removed for now.
975 This also fixes a crash that would occur if someone would try
976 to connect to an AP in 'Connect' menu, after unsuccessful
978 - implemented searching per multiple network devices. This involved
979 modifying ap_search() and changing it to scan_local_segment(),
980 as well as making scan_local_segment() self-reentrant, plus
981 adding portable code to scan for available network interfaces
982 for their IP/broadcast(ptp) pairs, that are later used to scan
983 segments via scan_local_segment(). Thanks to Dan J. Bernstein
984 for an effort in writing portable SIOCGIFCONF-related code;
985 the current implementation is based on his ipme.c from Qmail.
986 No more using 255.255.255.255 as broadcast as well as source
987 IP scanning. Results are now accurate even on routers with
988 multiple network interfaces of different types. The current
989 ap_search() has been verified/tested with W-Link WEN2021
990 and Tellus TWL-A14 APs on Linux 2.2/2.4 and FreeBSD 4.9 .
991 - the progress is now verbose:
992 - each AP is shown immediately as soon as it is found
993 - the screen is realtime-updated with information about network
994 interface index, its name and AP type, currently scanned for
995 - it is now possible to quit from scanning process by pressing
996 'q' or 'Q' whenever user wants to
997 - do not attempt to connect to an AP by pressing a key with index
998 of AP that is not present in the 'found' table
999 * src/oui.c: added OUIs:
1001 - 000C41 (The Linksys Group, Inc.)
1002 * configure.in: added check to determine whether the (struct sockaddr)
1003 has 'sa_len' member, and if it has, #define HAVE_SA_LEN in order to
1004 properly support network interface detection on 4.4BSD-ish systems.
1005 Moved AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR macro behind AC_INIT, to satisfy
1006 newer autoconf. Also, moved template definition from acconfig.h here.
1007 * acconfig.h: deleted (deprecated for newer autoconfs)
1008 * src/menu.c: added hooks for keys, 'q' / 'Q', Home (PageUp), and
1010 * src/set_community.c: use get_pass() for now instead of get_value(),
1011 so that the passwords are hidden when someone types them in.
1012 We should really use get_value() for this later, and make
1013 the password hiding optional.
1015 2003-10-21 Roman Festchook
1016 * configure.in: version 1.3.3, added "thank you" message
1017 * src/common.c: falling back to firstly implemented AP type autodetection order - firstly searching for ATMEL410, by default ATMEL12530
1018 * NEWS: main changes added
1020 2003-08-14 Roman Festchook
1021 * configure.in: version 1.3.3-pre3
1023 2003-09-08 Jan Rafaj
1024 * README: added several APs to the table of supported hardware
1025 * lib/ap-utils.h, src/ap-config.c, src/auth_mac.c: AuthMAC()
1026 renamed to atmel_auth_mac()
1027 * lib/ap-utils.h, src/input.c, src/test.c, src/set_community.c,
1028 src/wep.c, src/wlan.c, src/auth_mac.c, src/bridge.c, src/common.c,
1029 src/file.c, src/nwn_advanced.c, src/radio.c:
1030 - get_value(): rewritten; now embeds the bounds as well as
1031 pressed key checking. The range boundaries, the desired type
1032 of input with respect to the acceptable characters, and the
1033 pointer to a message to be restored, when a warning about
1034 exceeded boundary is printed in the bottom stripe, are accepted
1035 as four additional parameters now.
1036 - get_ip(), get_mask(): newly introduced
1037 - get_ip(), get_mac(): based on get_value(), with additional
1038 bounds checking tailored accordingly and moved here from
1040 - get_mask(): based on get_ip() with additional mask correctness
1041 checking code moved here from src/bridge.c
1042 - all the above functions were used to replace the respective
1043 original input functions to match the changed prototypes
1044 - the generic message 'Invalid value...' has been replaced
1045 with 'Value must be in range %i - %i...'. This is printed
1046 in bold-white/red in bottom stripe if the user input value
1047 exceeds the predefined boundaries.
1048 - added inet_aton()-specific includes to lib/ap-utils.h,
1049 and removed elsewhere for multiple reasons
1050 * src/wlan.c: fixed code displaying the ESSID - upon its change,
1051 previously it could happen that if a newly written ESSID
1052 would be shorter than the previous one, the loop that has been used
1053 to display ESSID would [erroneously] expect the string to be
1054 finished with '\0' (which is not required due to operESSIDLength),
1055 and would display garbage with content of and length up to an
1058 2003-08-27 Jan Rafaj
1059 * README: fixed/added some supported AP hardware entries
1060 * lib/ap-utils.h, src/ap-config.c, src/bridge.c, src/radio.c,
1061 src/set_community.c, src/sysinfo.c, src/test.c, src/wep.c,
1062 src/wlan.c: hopefully the last round of changes in naming
1064 * src/bridge.c, src/wlan.c:
1065 utility now distinguishes some extra MIB subtypes: for 410 enter-
1066 prises MIBs: "SmartBridges" form, and for 12350 enterprises MIBs:
1067 "Tellus" MIB form "prototype". The MIB form is being distinguished
1068 based on the OUI part of MAC address of the device.
1069 Other than those MIBs named above are considered "generic"
1070 forms, becouse are very ubiquitous.
1071 This procedure is necessary, becouse despite the fact that
1072 many MIBs keep the same enterprises ID, they differ slightly
1073 in OID structures (some OIDs are in one MIB and not in other,
1074 and same OIDs even may have significantly different meaning -
1075 this is a case of Tellus A14 MIB x NetGear ME102 MIB, f.e.).
1076 So, unfortunately, there's no other way, but:
1077 - make some MIB "prototypes" (aggregate those that contain
1078 exactly the same information, based on the supported
1079 AP models across all the device manufacturers)
1080 - determine the correct MIB based on the OUI part of MAC
1081 address of the device (we assume noone changes OUI part
1082 of the MAC of his AP)
1083 It is quite possible that this approach will need revision
1084 in the future, but since there appears to be no 100% reliable
1085 way of how to distinguish different device models of one
1086 specific manufacturer, the above is currently the finest,
1087 although still coarse enough, method to support most devices.
1089 - 'Preferred BSSID' keys rebound from 'm/M' to 'r/R'
1090 - 'Forward broadcast traffic' keys rebound from 't/T' to 'r/R'
1091 - introduced new setting 'Trap-sending port(s)', and bound to 't/T'
1092 key. This setting appears only if ATMEL12350 device with
1093 "Tellus Group Co." OUI is detected.
1095 - fixed 'Beacon period' input/output data formatting/displaying
1096 - display/snag/set 'Beacon period' and 'DTIM sending interval'
1097 options/their values only if the device uses "generic"
1098 ATMEL12350 MIB prototype (that of NetGear ME102 for example).
1099 This should fix crashing becouse of missing MIB OIDs for people
1100 that use this kind of devices.
1102 2003-08-25 Roman Festchook
1103 * lib/ap-utils.h, configure.in: FreeBSD compile time fixes
1105 2003-08-19 Roman Festchook
1106 * src/ap_search.c: fixed getch delay and restoring current connect options when quiting search screen
1108 2003-08-18 Jan Rafaj
1109 * README, THANKS: modified
1110 * most of string #defines moved from lib/ap-utils.h to the corresponding
1111 modules in src - lib/ap-utils.h should keep just those that are
1112 common to more than 1 module
1114 - fix bound-checking condition. Some APs with older ATMEL firmware
1115 actually provide less space than 16 APs in its KnownAP reply,
1116 and we also need to check for condition when lvalue of next MAC
1117 entry in the response table is 0 (means end of statistics)
1118 - only rewrite the current bridge_mode to 3 (AP client) if the
1119 AP is ATMEL12350 type
1120 * src/auth_mac.c, src/bridge.c, src/nwn_latest.c, src/sysinfo.c,
1121 src/test.c, src/wep.c, src/wlan.c:
1122 - stripped the formatting characters from remaining string #defines
1123 - made the displaying value in 'Feature: value' dependant on offset
1124 computed through strlen() from #defined string - this way,
1125 the internationalisation is eased becouse translators dont need
1126 to keep with original english strings size
1127 * src/bridge.c: implemented new functionality from ATMEL 12350 MIB for:
1128 - Configuration-enabled port(s)
1132 * src/input.c: enhanced get_mac() for checking invalid MAC values
1133 that user may type in; if he does, print generic error and loop
1134 unless user gives syntactically correct value.
1135 * src/radio.c: changed the 'Key' to '[key]' in bottom message for
1137 * lib/ap-utils.h, src/sysinfo.c, src/wlan.c: renamed CFG_STRUCT_
1138 {ATMEL410,ATMEL12350} to SysDeviceInfo_{ATMEL410,ATMEL12350}
1139 * src/wlan.c: corrected offset of displayed values for features:
1144 2003-08-14 Roman Festchook
1145 * src/common.c: changed AP type autodetection order - firstly searching for ATMEL12350, by default ATMEL410
1146 * configure.in: version 1.3.3-pre2
1147 * src/aps.c: fixed connecting to choosen AP on ATMEL12350 APs in not AP Client mode
1149 2003-08-14 Elros Cyriatan
1150 * po/nl/po: New Dutch PO file for `ap-utils'
1152 2003-08-11 Jan Rafaj
1153 * next round of spelling and indentation fixes
1155 - made the 'KnownAP' statistics available only if the Access Point
1156 is in AP client mode [original behaviour]. Some Access Points
1157 may keep the statistics in their RAM, but no update is performed.
1158 Even, sometimes, their RAM may contain garbage after reset,
1159 which would cause parsing problems.
1160 * lib/ap-utils.h, lib/reset.c, src/ap-config.c, src/ap-mrtg.c,
1161 src/ap_search.c, src/aps.c, src/auth_mac.c, src/bridge.c,
1162 src/cmd.c, src/common.c, src/radio.c, src/set_community.c,
1163 src/stat.c, src/stations.c, src/sysinfo.c, src/test.c,
1164 src/wep.c, src/wlan.c:
1165 - changed all occurences of 'ATMEL' to 'ATMEL410' and
1166 for 'ME102' to 'ATMEL12350'
1167 * lib/ap-utils.h, src/ap-config.c, src/sysinfo.c:
1168 - renamed sysinfo() to atmel_sysinfo()
1169 * lib/ap-utils.h, src/ap-config.c, src/wlan.c:
1170 - renamed wireless() to atmel_wireless()
1172 - redefined color pair 2 (black ink, green background), and defined
1173 new color pair 3 (black ink, green background), and color
1174 pair 4 (white ink, red background). 2 is used for showing
1175 all string values actually changed by the user; 3 is used
1176 for displaying column-info stripe in aps.c, and 4 is used
1177 to display error-related messages in bottom status stripe.
1179 - get_value() modified
1180 * src/scr.c, lib/ap-utils.h:
1181 - added new function print_menusel().
1182 Prints a message split up to two parts - first part without
1183 colors, second part in bright. Used in conjunction with get_value()
1184 to display parameters that the user modified, in bold.
1185 - added new function print_helperr(). This is basically the same
1186 as print_help(), with the only difference that it prints
1187 the text in white bold on red background. Uses color pair 4
1188 and bold attribute; see above.
1189 * names of all print_help() functions related to printing error
1190 messages have been changed to print_helperr()
1191 * src/auth_mac.c, src/bridge.c, src/radio.c, src/test.c, src/wep.c,
1192 src/wlan.c, lib/ap-utils.h:
1193 - implemented new colorisation scheme using print_menusel()
1194 and get_value(), get_mac() - if user enters a new value,
1195 the maximum space (in character counts) that can be used,
1196 is displayed in inverse color. As soon as user confirms
1197 the new value by pressing enter, the changed value is displayed
1198 in bold (so that he knows what he has actually changed).
1200 - when entering AP's IP, mask and gateway, do not allow
1201 to pass further if the user input is invalid - instead, loop unless
1202 user enters valid information
1203 - hardened bounds checking against correct netmask value;
1204 now, invalid netmasks like 255.255.255.129 elicits error
1205 and forces prompt for new value, too
1206 * lib/ap-utils.h, src/ap-mrtg.c, src/ap_search.c: placed
1207 conditinal GLIBC checks => ap-utils now compile/run even
1208 on non-GLIBC (LIBC5-based and such) systems, hopefully.
1209 Actually it has only been tested with libc5-based Linux
1211 * lib/ap-utils.h, src/ap-mrtg.c, src/ap-trapd.c: placed conditional
1212 HAVE_GETTEXT checks around parts using gettext, to get
1213 ap-utils compile on systems without gettext support
1214 * lib/snmp.c, src/file.c: external declaration of ap_type datatype
1215 unified as 'short' and made global to make some old
1216 GNU C compilers happy
1218 2003-08-07 Roman Festchook
1219 * src/brige.c: fixed bug when saving changed ip, netmask and gw
1221 2003-08-07 Jan Rafaj
1222 * various spelling and indentation fixes here and there
1223 * all the ATMEL 12350-specific stuff below has been modelled
1224 using Tellus A14 AP.
1226 - made it malloc()-free. no more potential leaks.
1227 - 'KnownAP' now works for ATMEL 12350-based APs too
1228 - allow of up to 16 concurrent APs to be displayed
1229 in the 'KnownAP', as the packet itself may carry
1230 up to 16 records (768/48). This is also a fix
1231 becouse up to now, the menu has shown just the first
1233 - The button for 'refresh without reset', originally bound to
1234 'g' and 'G' key, has been rebound to 's' ('S') key,
1235 since the keys a-g (A-G) are now used as keys, corresponding
1236 to numbers 10-16 of the APs displayed, when used in
1237 '# connect to this AP' command.
1238 - enhanced '# connect to this AP' functionality for
1239 also setting the appropriate channel through operChannelID
1241 - disallow connection to Ad-Hoc mode bridges
1242 - fixed bad effect of displaying 'Writing data to AP'
1243 after pressing AP number, even if the number of the
1244 selected AP is not actually present in the table
1245 - changed the color scheme to some more eye-pleasant values
1246 - implemented 4 different "views", that can be toggled
1248 * view 1: - most usual one; with RSSI and LQ in %
1249 [ATMEL utility view]
1250 * view 2: - the same as 1; except that RSSI is displayed
1251 in dBm and LQ in raw
1252 * view 3: - ESSID shown expanded to full length,
1253 no NetworkType; RSSI displayed in raw,
1255 * view 4: - shown only BSSID, and its hardware manufacturer
1256 - the 'KnownAP' statistics is available without reset
1257 if the Access Point is either in any of APclient or AP modes,
1258 not just when it is in APclient mode.
1260 - HARD_CONFIGURATION_STRUCT is now replaced with two new
1261 structures: CFG_STRUCT_ATMEL (for ATMEL 410-based devices),
1262 and CFG_STRUCT_ME102 (for ATMEL 12350-based devices).
1264 - sysinfo() made malloc()-free, and made both ATMEL 410-
1265 and ATMEL 12350-aware => SysInfo for APs of both ATMEL types
1266 is now displayed correctly
1268 - added OUI 000CCE (Cisco Systems)
1269 * lib/ap-utils.h, src/wlan.c:
1270 - made it fully ATMEL 410- and ATMEL 12350-aware
1271 (displaying/setting of additional InterRoaming, BeaconPeriod
1272 and DTIM parameters in case of ATMEL12350). Note that
1273 it is possible to regulate BeaconPeriod in range 0-65407
1274 and DTIM in range 0-255, but the boundary limits may vary
1275 with different hardware. I've tried to make as broad
1276 range coverage as possible. Anyway, for example, Tellus A14
1277 resets the BeaconPeriod internally to 100, if you write
1278 it with value out of 1-1000 interval.
1279 - rebound key for ESSID from 'd' ('D') to 'e' ('E')
1281 2003-07-26 Roman Festchook
1282 * src/ap_search.c, src/common.c: changed AP types ATMEL to ATMEL410 and ME102 to ATMEL12350
1283 * src/common.c: added AP type autodetection - by default ATMEL12350
