https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D163455 --- Comment #6 from John Nielsen <john@jnielsen.net> --- The "bssid" parameter does indeed work on 10-STABLE and 11-CURRENT (and probably earlier?). I do seem to recall that the order of ifconfig paramete= rs makes a difference, though. Since opening this ticket I have changed my rc.= conf to have "bssid" at the beginning of the relevant lines instead of at the end and it has been working fine for some time. Excerpt from working rc.conf: wlans_ath1=3D"wlan1 wlan3" create_args_wlan1=3D"bssid wlanmode hostap mode 11g channel 1:ht/40+" create_args_wlan3=3D"bssid wlanmode hostap mode 11g channel 1:ht/40+" Excerpt from ifconfig output: wlan1: flags=3D8943<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric = 0 mtu 1500 ether 00:1b:b1:5d:XX:YY wlan3: flags=3D8943<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric = 0 mtu 1500 ether 06:1b:b1:5d:XX:YY Note the difference in the first octet of the MAC address: '00' for wlan1 a= nd '06' for wlan3. AFAIK this bug can be closed. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
