# Function

The simwifi can provides host Settings for sim wifi on nuttx sim emulator.
The script sim_wifi.sh supports two modes that simulate wifi, HWSIM and RNC
(real network card).

 - In the HWSIM mode, we simulates two wlan interfaces. The wlan0 is STA and
   the wlan1 is AP. The wlan0 can connect to the wlan1 in the nuttx simulator.
 - In the RNC mode, we can use the same wlan interface name on the nuttx simulator
   to control the connection behavior of the real wireless card.

# Config

Before using the Sim WiFi function, we need to perform the following
configurations:

  - nuttx
  SIM_NETDEV_NUMBER=3
  SIM_WIFIDEV_NUMBER=2
  SIM_NETDEV_TAP=y
  DRIVERS_IEEE80211=y
  NETDEV_WIRELESS_HANDLER=y

  - apps
  WIRELESS_WAPI_CMDTOOL=y
  SYSTEM_DHCPC_RENEW=y
  NETUTILS_DHCPD=y

# Using

We can use the './tools/simwifi/sim_wifi.sh help' command to view the commands
provided by the sim_wifi.sh script and the results are as follows.

sim_wifi.sh (rename <old> <new> |
     init <wan> <mode> |clean |
     start_wpa <wlan0> |stop_wpa |
     start_hostapd <wlan0> |stop_hostapd |
     start_udhcpc <wlan0> |stop_udhcpc |
     start_dhcp <wlan0> |stop_dhcp |
     start_hwsim |stop_hwsim |up_hwsim |
     start_net <wlan0> |stop_net <wlan0> |
     start_sta <wlan0> |stop_sta |
     start_ap <wlan0> [eth0] |stop_ap <wlan0> [eth0] |
     start_bridge <eth0> |stop_bridge <eth0> |
     show | help)

  - Init the simwifi, the command format is as follows:
    sudo ./tools/simwifi/sim_wifi.sh init <wan> <mode>

    The <wan> is the name of the interface for accessing the Internet.
    The <mode> is the simwifi mode, HWSIM and RNC.

    Setting HWSIM:
    sudo ./tools/simwifi/sim_wifi.sh init eno1 HWSIM

    Setting RNC:
    sudo ./tools/simwifi/sim_wifi.sh init eno1 RNC

  - In HWSIM mode:
    Start the hwsim services, the command is as follows.
    sudo ./tools/simwifi/sim_wifi.sh start_hwsim

    Stop the hwsim services, the command is as follows
    sudo ./tools/simwifi/sim_wifi.sh stop_hwsim


  - In RNC mode:
    Maybe the real wireless card name format is not wlanx, in this case
    we need to change it to wlanx format. The command is as follows
    sudo simwifi rename <old_name> wlanx

    * Set the real wireless network card to STA mode.
      sudo ./tools/simwifi/sim_wifi.sh start_sta wlan0

    * Set the real wireless network card to AP mode.
      sudo ./tools/simwifi/sim_wifi.sh start_ap wlan0

Finally we can clean up all the files, configurations and services of the simwifi.
    sudo ./tools/simwifi/sim_wifi.sh clean

# Location problems
   We can use the following command to locate the problem and display the
   status.
 cmd: sudo ./tools/simwifi/sim_wifi.sh show
