<div class=Section1>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Hello all,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US> To
be fair, this is strictly not a nepl related question but since you have done
many experiments with madwifi APs and clients I just thought to ask as it has
started getting annoying. Apologies to the list…<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US> In
my nepl running testbed I have numerous madwifi APs and clients to try and simulate
real life scenarios of MR roaming from one network to another doing bindings
with their respective HAs. I recently have started seeing situations where a client
(ie. a sta interface in a MR) although being connected to e.g. AP1, receive inadvertently
RA from AP2. Unfortunately this makes the interface configure an additional
address from the network prefix of AP2 and brake the bindings which from this
point on cannot achieve. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='text-indent:36.0pt'><span lang=EN-US>The client
interfaces are configured using iwconfig athx essid “ssid-name”
(NOT any) so it is very weird that they hear RAs from adjacent networks (I can
confirm in wireshark that they hear RAs from a network that they are not
connected to). Let me also note here, that wireshark logs like 50 RAs from the
network that they are connected to and then only one from an adjacent network
that brake things. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='text-indent:36.0pt'><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='text-indent:36.0pt'><span lang=EN-US>Unfortunately
this problem is happening very frequently lately and I was wondering whether
there is anyone who experienced this in the past and whether there is a solution
to it? Is there any obvious configuration issue or something that I might have
overlooked causing this problem?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='text-indent:36.0pt'><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='text-indent:36.0pt'><span lang=EN-US>Thanks a lot in
advance,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
