Subject: mac80211_hwsim: packets being transmitted through the monitor interface
Date: Thu, 26 Sep 2019 22:54:37 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAK8U23ZyFnYt+ePreGjFA2VFXnpu21SPthscvJhP-5xjQCb0OA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hello,

I've noticed that packets transmitted between two clients connected to
a hostapd AP are also transmitted (injected) through the monitor
interface. Is this expected behavior? I can easily modify such
behavior by changing mac80211_hwsim, but it works only with hwsim0. On
the other hand, if I create a monitor interface via iw it doesn't
work.
