wpa_supplicant dbus interface

#1 Post by Pieter Cardoen »

Dear

I've been working quite a lot with python and the dbus API. However when I want to read the WPA_supplicant API, I'm getting problems in understanding what is returned by the API.

The dbus interface fi.w1.wpa_supplicant1.BSS interface has a property IEs which lists all Information Elements. However I don't understand what these values are. via d-feet, I just can see a list of numbers but don't know how to interprete them.

Does someone know what's the meaning of the returned values?

Thanks in advance
Pieter

Trying to not be unpleasant, I'll give You a hint:
Just check the API documentation, and (if in doubt) the sources. Sources do not lie ;)
