CVS commit: basesrc/sbin/ifconfig

[Jason R Thorpe <thorpej%netbsd.org@localhost>]

Module Name:    basesrc
Committed By:   thorpej
Date:           Sun Sep 22 15:29:24 UTC 2002

Modified Files:
        basesrc/sbin/ifconfig: ifconfig.8 ifconfig.c

Log Message:
New commands:
* bssid xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx -- set the desired BSSID of an 802.11
  interface.
* -bssid -- unset the desired BSSID of an 802.11 interface, so
  the interface will choose automatically (default).
* channel x -- set the channel (radio frequency) of an 802.11 interface.

Current BSSID and channel are now reported in the 802.11 status
display, if supported by the interface.

Above changes from David Young <dyoung%ojctech.com@localhost>, with some slight
changes by me (use ethers(3) functions rather than hand-parsing/printing
the 802.11 address).

Document bssid/-bssid/channel, and clean up markup of parentheticals
in the manual page.
