Hi,
Does anyone know if there is someway to tell from ROS what interface an Admin connection is coming in on?
I’m writing some custom s/w that gets handed over to third-parties, who may or may not know the exact layout of the network. Perhaps I want to change some WLAN settings, and I’ve found when doing so, the WLAN connection is always dropped and re-established.
It would be nice to know if the admin connection to that device is over the WLAN, or comes in on it’s ethernet connection. For MOST WLAN settings updates, this isn’t necessarily an issue, because 9 times out of 10, the settings changes are one single API command to the wireless card. In these cases, all the changes will go through, and the WLAN should be re-established connection if the user didn’t mess something up. However, if WDS is involved for example, there could be 2 or 3 separate API command issued, and when the WLAN drops, the rest of the commands don’t ‘get there’.
The /ip neighbors is what I thought would be the ticket, as each ‘neighbor’ has (2) interfaces listed, a local interface, and the “neighbor’s” interface, but that seems to return the interface name the IP address is attached to, not the interface where that ‘neighbor’ is ‘beaconing’ from.
Currently using v6.11
Thanks in advance.
