Module Name:    basesrc
Committed By:   dyoung

Modified Files:
        basesrc/usr.sbin/wiconfig: wiconfig.c

Log Message:
Add flag -g, set fragmentation threshold.  Also, query RSSI->dBm
conversion constant.

Remove flags

  -c Create IBSS: use ifconfig wi0 mediaopt adhoc, which turns on the
                  802.11-compliant behavior
  -e enable WEP: use ifconfig wi0 nwkey ...
  -f set channel: use ifconfig wi0 chan ch
  -k set WEP keys: use ifconfig wi0 nwkey ...
  -n set desired SSID to join in IBSS mode: use ifconfig wi0 nwid id
  -p set the desired port type: use ifconfig wi0 mediaopt ...
  -q set SSID to create: use ifconfig wi0 nwid ...
  -t set TX rate: ifconfig wi0 media ...
  -A set authentication type: ifconfig wi0 nwkey ...
  -S set maximum sleep interval: ifconfig wi0 powersavesleep ...
  -P enable power management: ifconfig wi0 powersave
  -T select WEP key for transmitted packets: ifconfig wi0 nwkey n:k1,k2,k3,k4
  -Z unimplemented

which duplicate ifconfig functions. This leaves flags

  -a access point density
  -o print out statistics counters
  -s set station name for Lucent WaveMANAGER software
  -M enable/disable "microwave oven robustness"
  -R enable/disable roaming function

which affect wi(4)-specific parameters, and flags

  -D scan once for access points
  -d maximum data length
  -m set MAC address
  -r set RTS/CTS threshold

which affect 802.11-standard parameters and activities (so may not
belong in wiconfig, in the long-term). The new flag, -g, also
affects an 802.11 parameter.
