Hi,

I still cannot get VAP's to work, perhaps I'm doing something wrong,
perhaps VAP support isn't ready yet.

My hardware: Soekris net4826 with Atheros 5212 mini-pci card
My FreeBSD: FreeBSD 10.0-CURRENT #0 r249745
My config:

    wlans_ath0="wlan63 wlan207"
    create_args_wlan63="wlanmode hostap mode 11g channel 7 country NL"
    create_args_wlan207="wlanmode hostap mode 11g channel 7 country NL"
    hostapd_config="/etc/hostapd.conf.testB /etc/hostapd.conf.testO"

    ==== hostapd.conf.testB:
    driver=bsd
    interface=wlan63
    ctrl_interface=/var/run/hostapd.wlan63
    ctrl_interface_group=wheel
    ssid=testB
    wpa=1
    wpa_passphrase=********
    wpa_key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
    wpa_pairwise=CCMP TKIP

    ==== hostapd.conf.testO:
    driver=bsd
    interface=wlan207
    ctrl_interface=/var/run/hostapd.wlan207
    ctrl_interface_group=wheel
    ssid=testO
    wpa=1
    wpa_passphrase=********
    wpa_key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
    wpa_pairwise=CCMP TKIP

I have tried running a single hostapd with two config files and running
two separate hostapd daemons each with a config file.  In both cases, I
get one wlan working, the other does not work.  Running hostapd with -d
does not reveal the problem to me either (I see debug output when
connecting to the working wlan but not when trying to connect to the
other one).  Hostapd debug output is below.

My questions:

    Should VAP work at all?
    Does anyone know of VAP problems with the Atheros 5212?
    Should I run one hostapd with multiple config files or separate daemons?
    Anything else I'm doing wrong?

Thanks for any help!
