509	  specific elements to be added to the Beacon and Probe Response frames
510	* added support for configuring GCMP cipher for IEEE 802.11ad
511	* added support for 256-bit AES with internal TLS implementation
512	* changed EAPOL transmission to use AC_VO if WMM is active

528	* Add channel selection support in hostapd. See hostapd.conf.
529	* Add support for IEEE 802.11v Time Advertisement mechanism with UTC
530	  TSF offset. See hostapd.conf for config info.
531	* Delay STA entry removal until Deauth/Disassoc TX status in AP mode.
532	  This allows the driver to use PS buffering of Deauthentication and
533	  Disassociation frames when the STA is in power save sleep. Only
534	  available with drivers that provide TX status events for Deauth/
535	  Disassoc frames (nl80211).
536	* Allow PMKSA caching to be disabled on the Authenticator. See
537	  hostap.conf config parameter disable_pmksa_caching.

539	* bsd: Add support for setting HT values in IFM_MMASK.
540	* Allow client isolation to be configured with ap_isolate. Client
541	  isolation can be used to prevent low-level bridging of frames
542	  between associated stations in the BSS. By default, this bridging
543	  is allowed.
544	* Allow coexistance of HT BSSes with WEP/TKIP BSSes.
545	* Add require_ht config parameter, which can be used to configure
546	  hostapd to reject association with any station that does not support
547	  HT PHY.
548	* Add support for writing debug log to a file using "-f" option. Also
549	  add relog CLI command to re-open the log file.
550	* Add bridge handling for WDS STA interfaces. By default they are
551	  added to the configured bridge of the AP interface (if present),
552	  but the user can also specify a separate bridge using cli command
553	  wds_bridge.
554	* hostapd_cli:
555	  - Add wds_bridge command for specifying bridge for WDS STA
556	    interfaces.
557	  - Add relog command for reopening log file.
558	  - Send AP-STA-DISCONNECTED event when an AP disconnects a station
559	    due to inactivity.
560	  - Add wps_config ctrl_interface command for configuring AP. This
561	    command can be used to configure the AP using the internal WPS
562	    registrar. It works in the same way as new AP settings received
563	    from an ER.
564	  - Many WPS/WPS ER commands - see WPS/WPS ER sections for details.
565	  - Add command get version, that returns hostapd version string.
566	* WNM: Add BSS Transition Management Request for ESS Disassoc Imminent.
567	  Use hostapd_cli ess_disassoc (STA addr) (URL) to send the
568	  notification to the STA.
569	* Allow AP mode to disconnect STAs based on low ACK condition (when
570	  the data connection is not working properly, e.g., due to the STA
571	  going outside the range of the AP). Disabled by default, enable by
572	  config option disassoc_low_ack.
573	* Add WPA_IGNORE_CONFIG_ERRORS build option to continue in case of bad
574	  config file.
575	* WPS:
576	  - Send AP Settings as a wrapped Credential attribute to ctrl_iface
577	    in WPS-NEW-AP-SETTINGS.
578	  - Dispatch more WPS events through hostapd ctrl_iface.
579	  - Add mechanism for indicating non-standard WPS errors.
580	  - Change concurrent radio AP to use only one WPS UPnP instance.
581	  - Add wps_check_pin command for processing PIN from user input.
582	    UIs can use this command to process a PIN entered by a user and to
583	    validate the checksum digit (if present).
584	  - Add hostap_cli get_config command to display current AP config.
585	  - Add new hostapd_cli command, wps_ap_pin, to manage AP PIN at
586	    runtime and support dynamic AP PIN management.
587	  - Disable AP PIN after 10 consecutive failures. Slow down attacks
588	    on failures up to 10.
589	  - Allow AP to start in Enrollee mode without AP PIN for probing,
590	    to be compatible with Windows 7.
591	  - Add Config Error into WPS-FAIL events to provide more info
592	    to the user on how to resolve the issue.
593	  - When controlling multiple interfaces:
594	     - apply WPS commands to all interfaces configured to use WPS
595	     - apply WPS config changes to all interfaces that use WPS
596	     - when an attack is detected on any interface, disable AP PIN on
597	       all interfaces
598	* WPS ER:
599	  - Show SetSelectedRegistrar events as ctrl_iface events.
600	  - Add special AP Setup Locked mode to allow read only ER.
601	    ap_setup_locked=2 can now be used to enable a special mode where
602	    WPS ER can learn the current AP settings, but cannot change them.
603	* WPS 2.0: Add support for WPS 2.0 (CONFIG_WPS2)
604	  - Add build option CONFIG_WPS_EXTENSIBILITY_TESTING to enable tool
605	    for testing protocol extensibility.
606	  - Add build option CONFIG_WPS_STRICT to allow disabling of WPS
607	    workarounds.
608	  - Add support for AuthorizedMACs attribute.
609	* TDLS:
610	  - Allow TDLS use or TDLS channel switching in the BSS to be
611	    prohibited in the BSS, using config params tdls_prohibit and
612	    tdls_prohibit_chan_switch.
613	* EAP server: Add support for configuring fragment size (see
614	  fragment_size in hostapd.conf).
615	* wlantest: Add a tool wlantest for IEEE802.11 protocol testing.
616	  wlantest can be used to capture frames from a monitor interface
617	  for realtime capturing or from pcap files for offline analysis.
618	* Interworking: Support added for 802.11u. Enable in .config with
619	  CONFIG_INTERWORKING. See hostapd.conf for config parameters for
620	  interworking.
621	* Android: Add build and runtime support for Android hostapd.
622	* Add a new debug message level for excessive information. Use
623	  -ddd to enable.
624	* TLS: Add support for tls_disable_time_checks=1 in client mode.
625	* Internal TLS:
626	  - Add support for TLS v1.1 (RFC 4346). Enable with build parameter
627	    CONFIG_TLSV11.
628	  - Add domainComponent parser for X.509 names
629	* Reorder some IEs to get closer to IEEE 802.11 standard. Move
630	  WMM into end of Beacon, Probe Resp and (Re)Assoc Resp frames.
631	  Move HT IEs to be later in (Re)Assoc Resp.
632	* Many bugfixes.

638	  configuration options
639	* TNC: fixed issues with fragmentation
640	* EAP-TNC: add Flags field into fragment acknowledgement (needed to

650	* hostapd_notif_Assoc() can now be called with all IEs to simplify
651	  driver wrappers
652	* work around interoperability issue with some WPS External Registrar
653	  implementations
654	* nl80211: fix WPS IE update
655	* hostapd_cli: add support for action script operations (run a script
656	  on hostapd events)
657	* fix DH padding with internal crypto code (mainly, for WPS)
658	* fix WPS association with both WPS IE and WPA/RSN IE present with
659	  driver wrappers that use hostapd MLME (e.g., nl80211)
660
6612010-01-16 - v0.7.1
662	* cleaned up driver wrapper API (struct wpa_driver_ops); the new API
663	  is not fully backwards compatible, so out-of-tree driver wrappers
664	  will need modifications
665	* cleaned up various module interfaces
666	* merge hostapd and wpa_supplicant developers' documentation into a
667	  single document

675	* WPS: add support for dynamically selecting whether to provision the
676	  PSK as an ASCII passphrase or PSK
677	* added support for WDS (4-address frame) mode with per-station virtual
678	  interfaces (wds_sta=1 in config file; only supported with
679	  driver=nl80211 for now)
680	* fixed WPS Probe Request processing to handle missing required
681	  attribute
682	* fixed PKCS#12 use with OpenSSL 1.0.0
683	* detect bridge interface automatically so that bridge parameter in
684	  hostapd.conf becomes optional (though, it may now be used to
685	  automatically add then WLAN interface into a bridge with
686	  driver=nl80211)
687
6882009-11-21 - v0.7.0
689	* increased hostapd_cli ping interval to 5 seconds and made this
690	  configurable with a new command line options (-G<seconds>)
691	* driver_nl80211: use Linux socket filter to improve performance
692	* added support for external Registrars with WPS (UPnP transport)
693	* 802.11n: scan for overlapping BSSes before starting 20/40 MHz channel

697	  Drives (UFD) (CONFIG_WPS_UFD=y)
698	* fixed EAPOL/EAP reauthentication when using an external RADIUS
699	  authentication server
700	* fixed TNC with EAP-TTLS

702	  (note: this breaks interoperability with previous version) [Bug 303]
703	* fixed SHA-256 based key derivation function to match with the
704	  standard when using CCMP (for IEEE 802.11r and IEEE 802.11w)
705	  (note: this breaks interoperability with previous version) [Bug 307]
706	* added number of code size optimizations to remove unnecessary
707	  functionality from the program binary based on build configuration
708	  (part of this automatic; part configurable with CONFIG_NO_* build
709	  options)
710	* use shared driver wrapper files with wpa_supplicant
711	* driver_nl80211: multiple updates to provide support for new Linux
712	  nl80211/mac80211 functionality

718	  networks
719	* added support for NFC out-of-band mechanism with WPS
720	* added preliminary support for IEEE 802.11r RIC processing
721
7222009-01-06 - v0.6.7
723	* added support for Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)
724	  (hostapd can now be configured to act as an integrated WPS Registrar
725	  and provision credentials for WPS Enrollees using PIN and PBC
726	  methods; external wireless Registrar can configure the AP, but
727	  external WLAN Manager Registrars are not supported); WPS support can
728	  be enabled by adding CONFIG_WPS=y into .config and setting the
729	  runtime configuration variables in hostapd.conf (see WPS section in
730	  the example configuration file); new hostapd_cli commands wps_pin and
731	  wps_pbc are used to configure WPS negotiation; see README-WPS for
732	  more details
733	* added IEEE 802.11n HT capability configuration (ht_capab)
734	* added support for generating Country IE based on nl80211 regulatory

743
7442008-11-23 - v0.6.6
745	* added a new configuration option, wpa_ptk_rekey, that can be used to
746	  enforce frequent PTK rekeying, e.g., to mitigate some attacks against
747	  TKIP deficiencies
748	* updated OpenSSL code for EAP-FAST to use an updated version of the
749	  session ticket overriding API that was included into the upstream
750	  OpenSSL 0.9.9 tree on 2008-11-15 (no additional OpenSSL patch is
751	  needed with that version anymore)
752	* changed channel flags configuration to read the information from
753	  the driver (e.g., via driver_nl80211 when using mac80211) instead of
754	  using hostapd as the source of the regulatory information (i.e.,
755	  information from CRDA is now used with mac80211); this allows 5 GHz
756	  channels to be used with hostapd (if allowed in the current
757	  regulatory domain)
758	* fixed EAP-TLS message processing for the last TLS message if it is
759	  large enough to require fragmentation (e.g., if a large Session
760	  Ticket data is included)
761	* fixed listen interval configuration for nl80211 drivers
762
7632008-11-01 - v0.6.5
764	* added support for SHA-256 as X.509 certificate digest when using the
765	  internal X.509/TLSv1 implementation
766	* fixed EAP-FAST PAC-Opaque padding (0.6.4 broke this for some peer
767	  identity lengths)
768	* fixed internal TLSv1 implementation for abbreviated handshake (used
769	  by EAP-FAST server)
770	* added support for setting VLAN ID for STAs based on local MAC ACL
771	  (accept_mac_file) as an alternative for RADIUS server-based
772	  configuration
773	* updated management frame protection to use IEEE 802.11w/D6.0
774	  (adds a new association ping to protect against unauthenticated
775	  authenticate or (re)associate request frames dropping association)
776	* added support for using SHA256-based stronger key derivation for WPA2
777	  (IEEE 802.11w)
778	* added new "driver wrapper" for RADIUS-only configuration
779	  (driver=none in hostapd.conf; CONFIG_DRIVER_NONE=y in .config)
780	* fixed WPA/RSN IE validation to verify that the proto (WPA vs. WPA2)
781	  is enabled in configuration
782	* changed EAP-FAST configuration to use separate fields for A-ID and
783	  A-ID-Info (eap_fast_a_id_info) to allow A-ID to be set to a fixed
784	  16-octet len binary value for better interoperability with some peer
785	  implementations; eap_fast_a_id is now configured as a hex string
786	* driver_nl80211: Updated to match the current Linux mac80211 AP mode
787	  configuration (wireless-testing.git and Linux kernel releases
788	  starting from 2.6.29)
789
7902008-08-10 - v0.6.4
791	* added peer identity into EAP-FAST PAC-Opaque and skip Phase 2
792	  Identity Request if identity is already known
793	* added support for EAP Sequences in EAP-FAST Phase 2
794	* added support for EAP-TNC (Trusted Network Connect)
795	  (this version implements the EAP-TNC method and EAP-TTLS/EAP-FAST
796	  changes needed to run two methods in sequence (IF-T) and the IF-IMV
797	  and IF-TNCCS interfaces from TNCS)
798	* added support for optional cryptobinding with PEAPv0
799	* added fragmentation support for EAP-TNC
800	* added support for fragmenting EAP-TTLS/PEAP/FAST Phase 2 (tunneled)
801	  data
802	* added support for opportunistic key caching (OKC)
803
8042008-02-22 - v0.6.3
805	* fixed Reassociation Response callback processing when using internal
806	  MLME (driver_{hostap,nl80211,test}.c)
807	* updated FT support to use the latest draft, IEEE 802.11r/D9.0
808	* copy optional Proxy-State attributes into RADIUS response when acting
809	  as a RADIUS authentication server
810	* fixed EAPOL state machine to handle a case in which no response is
811	  received from the RADIUS authentication server; previous version
812	  could have triggered a crash in some cases after a timeout
813	* fixed EAP-SIM/AKA realm processing to allow decorated usernames to
814	  be used
815	* added a workaround for EAP-SIM/AKA peers that include incorrect null
816	  termination in the username
817	* fixed EAP-SIM/AKA protected result indication to include AT_COUNTER
818	  attribute in notification messages only when using fast
819	  reauthentication
820	* fixed EAP-SIM Start response processing for fast reauthentication
821	  case
822	* added support for pending EAP processing in EAP-{PEAP,TTLS,FAST}
823	  phase 2 to allow EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA to be used as the Phase 2 method
824
8252008-01-01 - v0.6.2
826	* fixed EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA message parser to validate attribute
827	  lengths properly to avoid potential crash caused by invalid messages
828	* added data structure for storing allocated buffers (struct wpabuf);
829	  this does not affect hostapd usage, but many of the APIs changed
830	  and various interfaces (e.g., EAP) is not compatible with old
831	  versions
832	* added support for protecting EAP-AKA/Identity messages with
833	  AT_CHECKCODE (optional feature in RFC 4187)
834	* added support for protected result indication with AT_RESULT_IND for
835	  EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA (eap_sim_aka_result_ind=1)
836	* added support for configuring EAP-TTLS phase 2 non-EAP methods in
837	  EAP server configuration; previously all four were enabled for every
838	  phase 2 user, now all four are disabled by default and need to be
839	  enabled with new method names TTLS-PAP, TTLS-CHAP, TTLS-MSCHAP,
840	  TTLS-MSCHAPV2
841	* removed old debug printing mechanism and the related 'debug'
842	  parameter in the configuration file; debug verbosity is now set with
843	  -d (or -dd) command line arguments
844	* added support for EAP-IKEv2 (draft-tschofenig-eap-ikev2-15.txt);
845	  only shared key/password authentication is supported in this version
846
8472007-11-24 - v0.6.1
848	* added experimental, integrated TLSv1 server implementation with the
849	  needed X.509/ASN.1/RSA/bignum processing (this can be enabled by
850	  setting CONFIG_TLS=internal and CONFIG_INTERNAL_LIBTOMMATH=y in
851	  .config); this can be useful, e.g., if the target system does not
852	  have a suitable TLS library and a minimal code size is required
853	* added support for EAP-FAST server method to the integrated EAP
854	  server
855	* updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
856	  draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-07.txt)
857	* added a new configuration parameter, rsn_pairwise, to allow different
858	  pairwise cipher suites to be enabled for WPA and RSN/WPA2
859	  (note: if wpa_pairwise differs from rsn_pairwise, the driver will
860	  either need to support this or will have to use the WPA/RSN IEs from
861	  hostapd; currently, the included madwifi and bsd driver interfaces do
862	  not have support for this)
863	* updated FT support to use the latest draft, IEEE 802.11r/D8.0
864
8652007-05-28 - v0.6.0
866	* added experimental IEEE 802.11r/D6.0 support
867	* updated EAP-SAKE to RFC 4763 and the IANA-allocated EAP type 48
868	* updated EAP-PSK to use the IANA-allocated EAP type 47
869	* fixed EAP-PSK bit ordering of the Flags field
870	* fixed configuration reloading (SIGHUP) to re-initialize WPA PSKs
871	  by reading wpa_psk_file [Bug 181]
872	* fixed EAP-TTLS AVP parser processing for too short AVP lengths
873	* fixed IPv6 connection to RADIUS accounting server
874	* updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
875	  draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-04.txt)
876	* hlr_auc_gw: read GSM triplet file into memory and rotate through the
877	  entries instead of only using the same three triplets every time
878	  (this does not work properly with tests using multiple clients, but
879	  provides bit better triplet data for testing a single client; anyway,
880	  if a better quality triplets are needed, GSM-Milenage should be used
881	  instead of hardcoded triplet file)
882	* fixed EAP-MSCHAPv2 server to use a space between S and M parameters
883	  in Success Request [Bug 203]
884	* added support for sending EAP-AKA Notifications in error cases
885	* updated to use IEEE 802.11w/D2.0 for management frame protection
886	  (still experimental)
887	* RADIUS server: added support for processing duplicate messages
888	  (retransmissions from RADIUS client) by replying with the previous
889	  reply
890
8912006-11-24 - v0.5.6
892	* added support for configuring and controlling multiple BSSes per
893	  radio interface (bss=<ifname> in hostapd.conf); this is only
894	  available with Devicescape and test driver interfaces
895	* fixed PMKSA cache update in the end of successful RSN
896	  pre-authentication
897	* added support for dynamic VLAN configuration (i.e., selecting VLAN-ID
898	  for each STA based on RADIUS Access-Accept attributes); this requires
899	  VLAN support from the kernel driver/802.11 stack and this is
900	  currently only available with Devicescape and test driver interfaces
901	* driver_madwifi: fixed configuration of unencrypted modes (plaintext
902	  and IEEE 802.1X without WEP)
903	* removed STAKey handshake since PeerKey handshake has replaced it in
904	  IEEE 802.11ma and there are no known deployments of STAKey
905	* updated EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK) to use the latest
906	  draft (draft-ietf-emu-eap-gpsk-01.txt)
907	* added preliminary implementation of IEEE 802.11w/D1.0 (management
908	  frame protection)
909	  (Note: this requires driver support to work properly.)
910	  (Note2: IEEE 802.11w is an unapproved draft and subject to change.)
911	* hlr_auc_gw: added support for GSM-Milenage (for EAP-SIM)
912	* hlr_auc_gw: added support for reading per-IMSI Milenage keys and
913	  parameters from a text file to make it possible to implement proper
914	  GSM/UMTS authentication server for multiple SIM/USIM cards using
915	  EAP-SIM/EAP-AKA
916	* fixed session timeout processing with drivers that do not use
917	  ieee802_11.c (e.g., madwifi)
918
9192006-08-27 - v0.5.5
920	* added 'hostapd_cli new_sta <addr>' command for adding a new STA into
921	  hostapd (e.g., to initialize wired network authentication based on an
922	  external signal)
923	* fixed hostapd to add PMKID KDE into 4-Way Handshake Message 1 when
924	  using WPA2 even if PMKSA caching is not used
925	* added -P<pid file> argument for hostapd to write the current process
926	  id into a file
927	* added support for RADIUS Authentication Server MIB (RFC 2619)
928
9292006-06-20 - v0.5.4
930	* fixed nt_password_hash build [Bug 144]
931	* added PeerKey handshake implementation for IEEE 802.11e
932	  direct link setup (DLS) to replace STAKey handshake
933	* added support for EAP Generalized Pre-Shared Key (EAP-GPSK,
934	  draft-clancy-emu-eap-shared-secret-00.txt)
935	* fixed a segmentation fault when RSN pre-authentication was completed
936	  successfully [Bug 152]
937
9382006-04-27 - v0.5.3
939	* do not build nt_password_hash and hlr_auc_gw by default to avoid
940	  requiring a TLS library for a successful build; these programs can be
941	  build with 'make nt_password_hash' and 'make hlr_auc_gw'
942	* added a new configuration option, eapol_version, that can be used to
943	  set EAPOL version to 1 (default is 2) to work around broken client
944	  implementations that drop EAPOL frames which use version number 2
945	  [Bug 89]
946	* added support for EAP-SAKE (no EAP method number allocated yet, so
947	  this is using the same experimental type 255 as EAP-PSK)
948	* fixed EAP-MSCHAPv2 message length validation
949
9502006-03-19 - v0.5.2
951	* fixed stdarg use in hostapd_logger(): if both stdout and syslog
952	  logging was enabled, hostapd could trigger a segmentation fault in
953	  vsyslog on some CPU -- C library combinations
954	* moved HLR/AuC gateway implementation for EAP-SIM/AKA into an external
955	  program to make it easier to use for implementing real SS7 gateway;
956	  eap_sim_db is not anymore used as a file name for GSM authentication
957	  triplets; instead, it is path to UNIX domain socket that will be used
958	  to communicate with the external gateway program (e.g., hlr_auc_gw)
959	* added example HLR/AuC gateway implementation, hlr_auc_gw, that uses
960	  local information (GSM authentication triplets from a text file and
961	  hardcoded AKA authentication data); this can be used to test EAP-SIM
962	  and EAP-AKA
963	* added Milenage algorithm (example 3GPP AKA algorithm) to hlr_auc_gw
964	  to make it possible to test EAP-AKA with real USIM cards (this is
965	  disabled by default; define AKA_USE_MILENAGE when building hlr_auc_gw
966	  to enable this)
967	* driver_madwifi: added support for getting station RSN IE from
968	  madwifi-ng svn r1453 and newer; this fixes RSN that was apparently
969	  broken with earlier change (r1357) in the driver
970	* changed EAP method registration to use a dynamic list of methods
971	  instead of a static list generated at build time
972	* fixed WPA message 3/4 not to encrypt Key Data field (WPA IE)
973	  [Bug 125]
974	* added ap_max_inactivity configuration parameter
975
9762006-01-29 - v0.5.1
977	* driver_test: added better support for multiple APs and STAs by using
978	  a directory with sockets that include MAC address for each device in
979	  the name (test_socket=DIR:/tmp/test)
980	* added support for EAP expanded type (vendor specific EAP methods)
981
9822005-12-18 - v0.5.0 (beginning of 0.5.x development releases)
983	* added experimental STAKey handshake implementation for IEEE 802.11e
984	  direct link setup (DLS); note: this is disabled by default in both
985	  build and runtime configuration (can be enabled with CONFIG_STAKEY=y
986	  and stakey=1)
987	* added support for EAP methods to use callbacks to external programs
988	  by buffering a pending request and processing it after the EAP method
989	  is ready to continue
990	* improved EAP-SIM database interface to allow external request to GSM
991	  HLR/AuC without blocking hostapd process
992	* added support for using EAP-SIM pseudonyms and fast re-authentication
993	* added support for EAP-AKA in the integrated EAP authenticator
994	* added support for matching EAP identity prefixes (e.g., "1"*) in EAP
995	  user database to allow EAP-SIM/AKA selection without extra roundtrip
996	  for EAP-Nak negotiation
997	* added support for storing EAP user password as NtPasswordHash instead
998	  of plaintext password when using MSCHAP or MSCHAPv2 for
999	  authentication (hash:<16-octet hex value>); added nt_password_hash
1000	  tool for hashing password to generate NtPasswordHash
1001
10022005-11-20 - v0.4.7 (beginning of 0.4.x stable releases)
1003	* driver_wired: fixed EAPOL sending to optionally use PAE group address
1004	  as the destination instead of supplicant MAC address; this is
1005	  disabled by default, but should be enabled with use_pae_group_addr=1
1006	  in configuration file if the wired interface is used by only one
1007	  device at the time (common switch configuration)
1008	* driver_madwifi: configure driver to use TKIP countermeasures in order
1009	  to get correct behavior (IEEE 802.11 association failing; previously,
1010	  association succeeded, but hostpad forced disassociation immediately)
1011	* driver_madwifi: added support for madwifi-ng
1012
10132005-10-27 - v0.4.6
1014	* added support for replacing user identity from EAP with RADIUS
1015	  User-Name attribute from Access-Accept message, if that is included,
1016	  for the RADIUS accounting messages (e.g., for EAP-PEAP/TTLS to get
1017	  tunneled identity into accounting messages when the RADIUS server
1018	  does not support better way of doing this with Class attribute)
1019	* driver_madwifi: fixed EAPOL packet receive for configuration where
1020	  ath# is part of a bridge interface
1021	* added a configuration file and log analyzer script for logwatch
1022	* fixed EAPOL state machine step function to process all state
1023	  transitions before processing new events; this resolves a race
1024	  condition in which EAPOL-Start message could trigger hostapd to send
1025	  two EAP-Response/Identity frames to the authentication server
1026
10272005-09-25 - v0.4.5
1028	* added client CA list to the TLS certificate request in order to make
1029	  it easier for the client to select which certificate to use
1030	* added experimental support for EAP-PSK
1031	* added support for WE-19 (hostap, madwifi)
1032
10332005-08-21 - v0.4.4
1034	* fixed build without CONFIG_RSN_PREAUTH
1035	* fixed FreeBSD build
1036
10372005-06-26 - v0.4.3
1038	* fixed PMKSA caching to copy User-Name and Class attributes so that
1039	  RADIUS accounting gets correct information
1040	* start RADIUS accounting only after successful completion of WPA
1041	  4-Way Handshake if WPA-PSK is used
1042	* fixed PMKSA caching for the case where STA (re)associates without
1043	  first disassociating
1044
10452005-06-12 - v0.4.2
1046	* EAP-PAX is now registered as EAP type 46
1047	* fixed EAP-PAX MAC calculation
1048	* fixed EAP-PAX CK and ICK key derivation
1049	* renamed eap_authenticator configuration variable to eap_server to
1050	  better match with RFC 3748 (EAP) terminology
1051	* driver_test: added support for testing hostapd with wpa_supplicant
1052	  by using test driver interface without any kernel drivers or network
1053	  cards
1054
10552005-05-22 - v0.4.1
1056	* fixed RADIUS server initialization when only auth or acct server
1057	  is configured and the other one is left empty
1058	* driver_madwifi: added support for RADIUS accounting
1059	* driver_madwifi: added preliminary support for compiling against 'BSD'
1060	  branch of madwifi CVS tree
1061	* driver_madwifi: fixed pairwise key removal to allow WPA reauth
1062	  without disassociation
1063	* added support for reading additional certificates from PKCS#12 files
1064	  and adding them to the certificate chain
1065	* fixed RADIUS Class attribute processing to only use Access-Accept
1066	  packets to update Class; previously, other RADIUS authentication
1067	  packets could have cleared Class attribute
1068	* added support for more than one Class attribute in RADIUS packets
1069	* added support for verifying certificate revocation list (CRL) when
1070	  using integrated EAP authenticator for EAP-TLS; new hostapd.conf
1071	  options 'check_crl'; CRL must be included in the ca_cert file for now
1072
10732005-04-25 - v0.4.0 (beginning of 0.4.x development releases)
1074	* added support for including network information into
1075	  EAP-Request/Identity message (ASCII-0 (nul) in eap_message)
1076	  (e.g., to implement draft-adrange-eap-network-discovery-07.txt)
1077	* fixed a bug which caused some RSN pre-authentication cases to use
1078	  freed memory and potentially crash hostapd
1079	* fixed private key loading for cases where passphrase is not set
1080	* added support for sending TLS alerts and aborting authentication
1081	  when receiving a TLS alert
1082	* fixed WPA2 to add PMKSA cache entry when using integrated EAP
1083	  authenticator
1084	* fixed PMKSA caching (EAP authentication was not skipped correctly
1085	  with the new state machine changes from IEEE 802.1X draft)
1086	* added support for RADIUS over IPv6; own_ip_addr, auth_server_addr,
1087	  and acct_server_addr can now be IPv6 addresses (CONFIG_IPV6=y needs
1088	  to be added to .config to include IPv6 support); for RADIUS server,
1089	  radius_server_ipv6=1 needs to be set in hostapd.conf and addresses
1090	  in RADIUS clients file can then use IPv6 format
1091	* added experimental support for EAP-PAX
1092	* replaced hostapd control interface library (hostapd_ctrl.[ch]) with
1093	  the same implementation that wpa_supplicant is using (wpa_ctrl.[ch])
1094
10952005-02-12 - v0.3.7 (beginning of 0.3.x stable releases)
1096
10972005-01-23 - v0.3.5
1098	* added support for configuring a forced PEAP version based on the
1099	  Phase 1 identity
1100	* fixed PEAPv1 to use tunneled EAP-Success/Failure instead of EAP-TLV
1101	  to terminate authentication
1102	* fixed EAP identifier duplicate processing with the new IEEE 802.1X
1103	  draft
1104	* clear accounting data in the driver when starting a new accounting
1105	  session
1106	* driver_madwifi: filter wireless events based on ifindex to allow more
1107	  than one network interface to be used
1108	* fixed WPA message 2/4 processing not to cancel timeout for TimeoutEvt
1109	  setting if the packet does not pass MIC verification (e.g., due to
1110	  incorrect PSK); previously, message 1/4 was not tried again if an
1111	  invalid message 2/4 was received
1112	* fixed reconfiguration of RADIUS client retransmission timer when
1113	  adding a new message to the pending list; previously, timer was not
1114	  updated at this point and if there was a pending message with long
1115	  time for the next retry, the new message needed to wait that long for
1116	  its first retry, too
1117
11182005-01-09 - v0.3.4
1119	* added support for configuring multiple allowed EAP types for Phase 2
1120	  authentication (EAP-PEAP, EAP-TTLS)
1121	* fixed EAPOL-Start processing to trigger WPA reauthentication
1122	  (previously, only EAPOL authentication was done)
1123
11242005-01-02 - v0.3.3
1125	* added support for EAP-PEAP in the integrated EAP authenticator
1126	* added support for EAP-GTC in the integrated EAP authenticator
1127	* added support for configuring list of EAP methods for Phase 1 so that
1128	  the integrated EAP authenticator can, e.g., use the wildcard entry
1129	  for EAP-TLS and EAP-PEAP
1130	* added support for EAP-TTLS in the integrated EAP authenticator
1131	* added support for EAP-SIM in the integrated EAP authenticator
1132	* added support for using hostapd as a RADIUS authentication server
1133	  with the integrated EAP authenticator taking care of EAP
1134	  authentication (new hostapd.conf options: radius_server_clients and
1135	  radius_server_auth_port); this is not included in default build; use
1136	  CONFIG_RADIUS_SERVER=y in .config to include
1137
11382004-12-19 - v0.3.2
1139	* removed 'daemonize' configuration file option since it has not really
1140	  been used at all for more than year
1141	* driver_madwifi: fixed group key setup and added get_ssid method
1142	* added support for EAP-MSCHAPv2 in the integrated EAP authenticator
1143
11442004-12-12 - v0.3.1
1145	* added support for integrated EAP-TLS authentication (new hostapd.conf
1146	  variables: ca_cert, server_cert, private_key, private_key_passwd);
1147	  this enabled dynamic keying (WPA2/WPA/IEEE 802.1X/WEP) without
1148	  external RADIUS server
1149	* added support for reading PKCS#12 (PFX) files (as a replacement for
1150	  PEM/DER) to get certificate and private key (CONFIG_PKCS12)
1151
11522004-12-05 - v0.3.0 (beginning of 0.3.x development releases)
1153	* added support for Acct-{Input,Output}-Gigawords
1154	* added support for Event-Timestamp (in RADIUS Accounting-Requests)
1155	* added support for RADIUS Authentication Client MIB (RFC2618)
1156	* added support for RADIUS Accounting Client MIB (RFC2620)
1157	* made EAP re-authentication period configurable (eap_reauth_period)
1158	* fixed EAPOL reauthentication to trigger WPA/WPA2 reauthentication
1159	* fixed EAPOL state machine to stop if STA is removed during
1160	  eapol_sm_step(); this fixes at least one segfault triggering bug with
1161	  IEEE 802.11i pre-authentication
1162	* added support for multiple WPA pre-shared keys (e.g., one for each
1163	  client MAC address or keys shared by a group of clients);
1164	  new hostapd.conf field wpa_psk_file for setting path to a text file
1165	  containing PSKs, see hostapd.wpa_psk for an example
1166	* added support for multiple driver interfaces to allow hostapd to be
1167	  used with other drivers
1168	* added wired authenticator driver interface (driver=wired in
1169	  hostapd.conf, see wired.conf for example configuration)
1170	* added madwifi driver interface (driver=madwifi in hostapd.conf, see
1171	  madwifi.conf for example configuration; Note: include files from
1172	  madwifi project is needed for building and a configuration file,
1173	  .config, needs to be created in hostapd directory with
1174	  CONFIG_DRIVER_MADWIFI=y to include this driver interface in hostapd
1175	  build)
1176	* fixed an alignment issue that could cause SHA-1 to fail on some
1177	  platforms (e.g., Intel ixp425 with a compiler that does not 32-bit
1178	  align variables)
1179	* fixed RADIUS reconnection after an error in sending interim
1180	  accounting packets
1181	* added hostapd control interface for external programs and an example
1182	  CLI, hostapd_cli (like wpa_cli for wpa_supplicant)
1183	* started adding dot11, dot1x, radius MIBs ('hostapd_cli mib',
1184	  'hostapd_cli sta <addr>')
1185	* finished update from IEEE 802.1X-2001 to IEEE 802.1X-REV (now d11)
1186	* added support for strict GTK rekeying (wpa_strict_rekey in
1187	  hostapd.conf)
1188	* updated IAPP to use UDP port 3517 and multicast address 224.0.1.178
1189	  (instead of broadcast) for IAPP ADD-notify (moved from draft 3 to
1190	  IEEE 802.11F-2003)
1191	* added Prism54 driver interface (driver=prism54 in hostapd.conf;
1192	  note: .config needs to be created in hostapd directory with
1193	  CONFIG_DRIVER_PRISM54=y to include this driver interface in hostapd
1194	  build)
1195	* dual-licensed hostapd (GPLv2 and BSD licenses)
1196	* fixed RADIUS accounting to generate a new session id for cases where
1197	  a station reassociates without first being complete deauthenticated
1198	* fixed STA disassociation handler to mark next timeout state to
1199	  deauthenticate the station, i.e., skip long wait for inactivity poll
1200	  and extra disassociation, if the STA disassociates without
1201	  deauthenticating
1202	* added integrated EAP authenticator that can be used instead of
1203	  external RADIUS authentication server; currently, only EAP-MD5 is
1204	  supported, so this cannot yet be used for key distribution; the EAP
1205	  method interface is generic, though, so adding new EAP methods should
1206	  be straightforward; new hostapd.conf variables: 'eap_authenticator'
1207	  and 'eap_user_file'; this obsoletes "minimal authentication server"
1208	  ('minimal_eap' in hostapd.conf) which is now removed
1209	* added support for FreeBSD and driver interface for the BSD net80211
1210	  layer (driver=bsd in hostapd.conf and CONFIG_DRIVER_BSD=y in
1211	  .config); please note that some of the required kernel mods have not
1212	  yet been committed
1213
12142004-07-17 - v0.2.4 (beginning of 0.2.x stable releases)
1215	* fixed some accounting cases where Accounting-Start was sent when
1216	  IEEE 802.1X port was being deauthorized
1217
12182004-06-20 - v0.2.3
1219	* modified RADIUS client to re-connect the socket in case of certain
1220	  error codes that are generated when a network interface state is
1221	  changes (e.g., when IP address changes or the interface is set UP)
1222	* fixed couple of cases where EAPOL state for a station was freed
1223	  twice causing a segfault for hostapd
1224	* fixed couple of bugs in processing WPA deauthentication (freed data
1225	  was used)
1226
12272004-05-31 - v0.2.2
1228	* fixed WPA/WPA2 group rekeying to use key index correctly (GN/GM)
1229	* fixed group rekeying to send zero TSC in EAPOL-Key messages to fix
1230	  cases where STAs dropped multicast frames as replay attacks
1231	* added support for copying RADIUS Attribute 'Class' from
1232	  authentication messages into accounting messages
1233	* send canned EAP failure if RADIUS server sends Access-Reject without
1234	  EAP message (previously, Supplicant was not notified in this case)
1235	* fixed mixed WPA-PSK and WPA-EAP mode to work with WPA-PSK (i.e., do
1236	  not start EAPOL state machines if the STA selected to use WPA-PSK)
1237
12382004-05-06 - v0.2.1
1239	* added WPA and IEEE 802.11i/RSN (WPA2) Authenticator functionality
1240	  - based on IEEE 802.11i/D10.0 but modified to interoperate with WPA
1241	    (i.e., IEEE 802.11i/D3.0)
1242	  - supports WPA-only, RSN-only, and mixed WPA/RSN mode
1243	  - both WPA-PSK and WPA-RADIUS/EAP are supported
1244	  - PMKSA caching and pre-authentication
1245	  - new hostapd.conf variables: wpa, wpa_psk, wpa_passphrase,
1246	    wpa_key_mgmt, wpa_pairwise, wpa_group_rekey, wpa_gmk_rekey,
1247	    rsn_preauth, rsn_preauth_interfaces
1248	* fixed interim accounting to remove any pending accounting messages
1249	  to the STA before sending a new one
1250
12512004-02-15 - v0.2.0
1252	* added support for Acct-Interim-Interval:
1253	  - draft-ietf-radius-acct-interim-01.txt
1254	  - use Acct-Interim-Interval attribute from Access-Accept if local
1255	    'radius_acct_interim_interval' is not set
1256	  - allow different update intervals for each STA
1257	* fixed event loop to call signal handlers only after returning from
1258	  the real signal handler
1259	* reset sta->timeout_next after successful association to make sure
1260	  that the previously registered inactivity timer will not remove the
1261	  STA immediately (e.g., if STA deauthenticates and re-associates
1262	  before the timer is triggered).
1263	* added new hostapd.conf variable, nas_identifier, that can be used to
1264	  add an optional RADIUS Attribute, NAS-Identifier, into authentication
1265	  and accounting messages
1266	* added support for Accounting-On and Accounting-Off messages
1267	* fixed accounting session handling to send Accounting-Start only once
1268	  per session and not to send Accounting-Stop if the session was not
1269	  initialized properly
1270	* fixed Accounting-Stop statistics in cases where the message was
1271	  previously sent after the kernel entry for the STA (and/or IEEE
1272	  802.1X data) was removed
1273
1274
