The 802.11k standard specifies how the neighboring BSS' could report each other to a STA. OpenWRT's hostapd supports this feature, but the syncronization has to be done in a separate daemon such as this one.

802.11k Neighbor Report distributor daemon

Features

  • Multi-network support (different SSID for different networks)
  • STA dependent band steering by advertising the other BSSes of the same AP
  • Works out of the box after umdns is working
  • Not too much but enough logs

Installation

  • Configure all your OpenWRT devices for the same SSID for each layer 2 network
  • Install umdns and configure it (Pay attention to config the interface in the config file, setup your firewall, seccomp workaround etc. Finally ubus call umdns browse should show your other devices' dropbear)
  • Copy initscript to /etc/init.d/rrm_nr
  • Copy bin to /usr/bin/rrm_nr
  • Run /etc/init.d/rrm_nr enable and /etc/init.d/rrm_nr start commands
  • Check the syslog for the results

Known issues

  • With large number of APs (>20) the full umdns update takes a few interations/minutes
