Ieee80211Portal¶

Package: inet.linklayer.ieee80211.portal

simple module Ieee80211Portal

Implements the portal functionality in IEEE 802.11 networks, serving as a bridge between wireless LANs and wired networks. Performs protocol conversion between IEEE 802.11 frames and IEEE 802.3 (Ethernet) frames, handling frame format differences and LLC header management.
