The WiFi libraries provide support for configuring and monitoring the ESP32 WiFi networking functionality. This includes configuration for:
- Station mode (aka STA mode or WiFi client mode). ESP32 connects to an access point.
- AP mode (aka Soft-AP mode or Access Point mode). Stations connect to the ESP32.
- Combined AP-STA mode (ESP32 is concurrently an access point and a station connected to another access point).
- Various security modes for the above (WPA, WPA2, WEP, etc.)
- Scanning for access points (active & passive scanning).
- Promiscuous mode monitoring of IEEE802.11 WiFi packets.
See :example:`wifi` directory of ESP-IDF examples that contains the following applications:
