From 5318f8408bb620d7d2e7d1749f60f9072a07fda5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Warner Losh Date: Sun, 27 Apr 2008 04:07:36 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Add a breif example for the wlan change. Include an explicit pointer to rc.conf(5) to remind people where to look for all the details. People without network connectivity forget basics like this... This is in keeping with historic UPDATING entries which try to provide basic information in the entry, and a pointer to more extensive information documenting the new thing. --- UPDATING | 6 ++++++ 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+) diff --git a/UPDATING b/UPDATING index 5da66d521b4..d7dfc9b04ae 100644 --- a/UPDATING +++ b/UPDATING @@ -27,6 +27,12 @@ NOTE TO PEOPLE WHO THINK THAT FreeBSD 8.x IS SLOW: operation on devices that are capable. The underlying device is no longer used directly but instead wlanX devices are cloned with ifconfig. This requires changes to rc.conf files. + For example, change: + ifconfig_ath0="WPA DHCP" + to + wlans_ath0=wlan0 + ifconfig_wlan0="WPA DHCP" + see rc.conf(5) for more details. As part of the multi-bss changes the wlan_scan_ap and wlan_scan_sta modules were merged into the base wlan module. All references
