[TW#18627] [Question]: WPS in APSTA mode

[farizadp]

Hello,

Has anyone ever managed to get WPS working on mode APSTA?
It seems to me that WPS is functioning on WIFI_MODE_STA only.

Regards,
Dion

Hi, yes, it works for sta only, you can find the note in the readme. WPS Example

@FayeY : Thanks, Is there any intention in the near-future to get the WPS working on APSTA mode ?

Hi @farizadp, in idfv3.1, we don't have plan to support it since we already have a lot of work to do. I have put it into our to-do repository, will let you know once we have scheduled it. BTW, why need to run WPS in APSTA mode?

Hi @liuzfesp . Thanks for the answer.
Here is a bit of explanation about my ESP32 application:

My ESP32 board hosts a web (AP mode). The web shows its connection status to WLAN router (STA mode). From the web (AP mode), I would like to see the STA mode connection status being updated when WPS is initiated by pressing the physical button on ESP32 board. I therefore need APSTA mode and was thinking that WPS feature on STA mode also works on APSTA mode, which apparently not.

Hi @farizadp . We have supported the enrollee in APSTA mode, you can check the commit 6c3bdd4 for detail, or you can pull the latest code after it merged.

Thanks, @XinDeng11. I couldn't find 6c3bdd4 commit detail. Where can I find it? Or should I really wait until it's merged to master?
