Description
Runs an IEEE 802.11 access point and authenticator supporting WPA, WPA2, EAP, 802.1X, and RADIUS-related workflows. It is a core building block for Linux-based Wi-Fi access points.
It is useful for routers, lab networks, enterprise Wi-Fi, embedded devices, and wireless testing. Incorrect configuration can expose a network, block clients, or weaken security, so keys and authentication settings need careful review.
