BSS: BSS association, fragmentation/RTS/CTS, BSS channels etc IBSS: IBSS association, IBSS fragmentation/RTS/CTS, IBSS channels. Security: WEP (BSS/IBSS), WPA/WPA2, 802.1X. Power management: S3/S4, RFKILL Performance: upload/download speed for different combinations. Others: Wext mode, nl80211 mode 802.11 a/b/g/n: Above features in a/b/g/n band.

Testing environment setup

The minimum testing system requirements are listed below.

Two test machines: One as test machine, the other as peer machine in IBSS network testing. If only BSS is tested, one test machine is enough. One server machine: The server machine needs two Ethernet cards, one connects to the Test machine network and the other to the AP network. One AP: Support Cisco AP, Dlink and ASUS AP with CLI (Command Line Interface). For example, Dlink DWL-8200 AP and Cisco1200 series AP.

Here is an example of our test environment:
