Re: [Madwifi-devel] communication between vaps in ad hoc mode

[Henrique M. <hen...@gm...>]

I guess you want your interfaces to behave as if they were in
different machines, so you create two ad-hoc interfaces, and then you
send packets from one to another. No virtualization at all, just a
clever way of simulating many machines in adhoc mode. Am i right ?

Well, i guess you have created the interfaces. How do you assign
different MACs and/or IPs ?
